AudioThing has introduced TapeStation – described as “what happens when a ’90s analog synth meets an ’80s tape recorder”.

AudioThing sampled “a famous Analogue Bass Synth” (BassStation, cough, cough) to tape using a new old stock cassette, and then turned it into a Kontakt Instrument.

Features:

• 2 Oscillators (Saw, Square, Pulse 5%)
• 12-24dB/oct filter
• 1 LFO (Random, Saw, Triangle) for Pitch and Cutoff
• 2 Envelopes
• 24 Factory Presets
• 24 User Presets (save function within the Kontakt GUI)
• Sample resolution: 44.1Khz / 24Bit
• Size: 200 MB installed
• Custom performance view

Note: Native Instruments Kontakt 4.2.2 full retail version is required

TapeStation is available now for $9 (price goes up to $12 on 10/24/).
