The Sound Board

"Developed by Jatin Chowdhury, who created the highly acclaimed ChowTape Model, Impact Soundworks's Tape Sculptor incorporates cutting-edge DSP that delivers unparalleled warmth, character, and nuance to your audio. Whether you're looking for just a touch of vintage-style saturation and smooth transient processing, or intense compression, modulation and distortion, the sound of Tape Sculptor is top-of-class.

In Tape Sculptor everything is available on a single screen with clear organization into modules that can be easily toggled. Naturally, you can also adjust the zoom level to suit everything from a small laptop screen to 4K displays (or larger).

Tape Sculptor's extensive suite of processing modules and settings gives you an immense amount of control and customization. Dial in subtle warmth and fatness with the Compressor and Saturation sections. Slim the signal with analog-modeled Filters. Create vintage vibes with Degrade, Loss, and Chew. Explore pitch and spatial effects using Delay, Flutter, and Wow.

Push input, saturation, and degradation settings into extreme ranges to achieve unique, powerful sound design effects that are perfect for creative experimentation and injecting new life into your audio."

That is one heck of a demo! Even on my laptop I can hear the difference, I'll be interested in listening on real loudspeakers. I am intrigued by the flexibility.
