Rewind Back in Time with a Worn-Out, Vintage Aesthetic
Take your sounds back to DIY roots with the ever-charming and stylistic nuance of Lo-Fi. Engage in analogue tapes, distortion, degradation and much more as the Lo-Fi Bundle enables you access to a host of creative plugins to replicate the enigmatic sonic characteristics of Lo-Fi recordings. Embrace imperfection with this eclectic collection of innovative plugins.
Wavesfactory Cassette is an audio plugin that imparts the unique character and sonic imprint of an often maligned recording medium, one that offers a sound like nothing else. This is not a tape machine, this is a time machine.
Feel the lo-fi magic of the VHS era — with six unique effects in one strange plugin: Baby Audio Super VHS. The effects that come together to form this one-of-a-kind plugin include noise generation, saturation, sample rate reduction, chorus and reverb.
Push the limits of how warped and saturated your audio can get with denise's Bad Tape 2. The extreme 'Tape-Harming' effects inside of this plugin will allow you to go out of tune and off of the grid.
The Lo-Fi Bundle is exclusive to Plugin Boutique and available for a limited time only.
Wavesfactory Cassette
Cassette is an audio plugin that emulates the sound of vintage cassette tapes and decks. It has been carefully modelled after an exhaustive analysis of a high number of sound signals recorded into real tapes. As a result, you get the same sound and behaviour of the original units.
Magnetic tape is not sterile media. Because of that, it will impart its own sound signature to signals recorded into it. These include different frequency response, frequency-dependent saturation, high-frequency compression, hiss, asperity noise and much more. Reproduction systems will also induce their fingerprint: wow, flutter, random high-frequency loss, crosstalk between channels, stereo unbalances and other.
All of these little quirks and random fluctuations have been modelled meticulously. Cassette imprints instant nostalgia, movement and analogue feel all around in its path.
Cassette has been designed to be fun, pleasant to the ear and true to the medium.

Baby Audio Super VHS
Baby Audio wanted this plugin to be like sending your sounds back in time, then re-discovering them on a worn-out VHS tape 30 years later. All with the click of a single button, right inside your DAW.
The result is six unique effects coming together in a versatile signal chain. Super VHS will add some lofi authenticity to whatever clean sound you run through it — from a subtle touch of character to extreme sonic twists that leave your head spinning. Each effect has just a single control, but multiple parameters under the hood, allowing you to find endless combinations to transform your synths, samples, guitars, drums, vocals and beyond.
Effects Overview:
- STATIC: A synthesized hum, generated by a pink noise oscillator mixed with a digital saw wave.
- HEAT: A warm sounding saturation algorithm inspired by ‘consumer-grade’ tape machines from the early 1980s.
- SHAPE: A sample rate reducer (with some extras) inspired by 1980s 8-bit samplers.
- MAGIC: A lush “Juno style” chorus — but modeled with a slightly darker and more detuned tone.
- DRIFT: An internal LFO creating unpredictable pitch and time fluctuations, ranging from ‘natural’ to ‘supernatural’.
- WASH: A grainy, unnatural sounding, hall reverb, inspired by digital rack effects from the VHS-era.
- MIX: Controls the over-all wet/dry balance.
- OUTPUT: Controls the global output.
- HIDDEN PROCESSING: High shelf EQ attenuation, bit-crusher, limiter.

denise Bad Tape 2
Did It Get Even Worse?
The Bad Tape plugin by denise was bad. It remains one of denise’s most popular plugins to date. Bad Tape focuses on recreating tape artefacts in a controlled way: tape stops, slight slow-downs and speed-ups, and multiple ways to go out of tune and off the grid. Now, three years after the initial release, denise wanted to take the Bad Tape to the next level, giving you more FX and a new level of flexibility to shape the tape degradation of your sound. With the Bad Tape 2, it gets even worse!
Features
- Next level Detune - Slow down the tape in real-time, as if you would press your finger on the tape reel.
- Sidechain - The side-chain allows you to trigger the effects via an external audio source. The amount can be set individually for each of the effects for endless combinations and sounds.
- Push-Pull Graph - The push-pull graph lets you have complete control over the frequencies that are going to be saturated. Automate it to create organically changing tape-saturation and create steep curves for screaming resonances.
- Harm - Introduce failing tape artefacts from subtle to extreme tape degradation.
- Four Effects - Phaser, Doubler, Resonator & Magnet.
- Squeal & Noize - Add old tape machine noises for character and vibe.
- Colour - Adjust the overall colour of the sound analog to different tape materials.
- Speed - Adjust the speed of the wow and shake effects to easily create interesting variations.
- Saturation - Saturate your tracks for that good old vintage tape sound. Warm and smooth character due to hysteresis emulation.
- Presets - Comes with presets for synth, drums, bass and classic tape-style effects.
- More Benefits - Low CPU usage, works offline, has oversampling, host syncing, native M1 support and works without dongles or complex licence managers. As always with denise plugins, the philosophy is: buy once, own forever. No subscription, no ongoing payments.
