Tape Fiasco 2 for iPad: the whole plugin, on a tablet


video upload by Phase Fiasco

"Tape Fiasco 2 is now on iPad. Not a stripped-down companion app: the same engine that runs on macOS and Windows, rebuilt for touch, as a standalone app and an AUv3 plugin.

Download on the App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tape-fi...
$19, one-time purchase. No subscription, no in-app purchases.

BUILT FOR IPAD
• Standalone app or AUv3 in AUM, Logic Pro, GarageBand, Cubasis, Loopy Pro, Drambo and other AUv3 hosts.
• Load your own audio as the sound source, or start from the built-in factory loop library.
• Record the output and share or save a WAV straight from the app.
• Ableton Link for tempo and phase sync across your network.
• MIDI Learn with mappings that persist across relaunches.
• Two-finger scrolling, resizable and rotatable layouts, touch targets tuned for fingers instead of a mouse.
• Background audio, so it keeps running when you switch apps.

"Most audio plugins process your sound. Tape Fiasco performs it. Four independent time engines run simultaneously: a dual-grain stretcher that slows, freezes and scrubs in real time; a tape machine with wow, flutter, stop and scratch; a rhythmic slicer that repeats at any subdivision; and BendIt, a circuit-bent buffer mangler with a seven-zone pitch macro from subtle wobble to full DJ scratch, quantized to the host grid. Chain them in any order.

Behind the time engines sits another 30 effects, from spectral filtering and modal resonators to distortion, bit destruction, circuit bending and beyond, followed by a master stage with a three-band EQ, compressor, soft limiter and auto gain.

Routing goes deep. Animate any parameter with multiple modulators: LFOs, random sources, envelope followers, and bezier graph editors. Sequencers stretch, bend and stutter. The Perform section puts four macros and an X/Y pad on the front panel, each routing to up to five destinations with three-point crossfade curves, all recordable as host automation. If it moves on screen, you can automate, sequence, or modulate it."
