Tapeboy by Curtiss King
Tapeboy is a 90's Boom Bap kid dream come true. An all in one vintage cassette and vinyl emulator inspired by the popular handheld Home Alone 2 recorder TalkBoy.
While seamlessly recreating the warm cassette & vinyl vibes of yesterday, this effects plugin also provides features with the modern Music Producer in mind.
Tapeboy was designed to add an accurate and classic hardware touch to any melodic sample, vocal, or drum sound.
BUILT-IN
SFX
ADVANCED LO-FI SFX MODE
As producers we recognize the important role ambient sound effects play in our music. We also know how uninspiring it is to stop our music to locate high quality samples to set the vibes right. With Tapeboy you can choose from 9 ambient SFX such as classic vinyl crackles, chill rainstorms, and laid back café chatter to bring listeners into your world.
LO-FI SYNC BUTTON
In our latest update we allow you to not only determine how loud you would like your sound effects to be, but we also give you the option of whether or not to sync them to your audio.


WARMTH &
8-BIT
The Echo section was designed to give you maximum sonic flexibility without overwhelming you with uneccessary controls. We delved deep to bring you a world of Echo, anything from pure slapback delays to rich analog echoes, the choice is yours!
ANALOG WARMTH MODE
Add and customize various styles of analog warmth and presence to your samples by clicking on the advanced WARM mode button.
ADVANCED 8-BIT MODE
Looking to add some digital video game distortion to your samples? Click on the Advanced Tapeboy 8-Bit button to add and customize an authentic throwback crunch and edge to your audio samples.
WOBBLE &
DUCK
A pristine Reverb engine designed from the ground up to bring you multi dimensional algorithmic spaces. Smart controls, intuitive design and inspring sound.
WOBBLE WHEEL
Determine how much digital pitch variation you would like to add to your samples by adjusting the wobble wheel.
DUCKING
GRarely seen within tape emulators, Tapeboy includes a velocity ducking sidechain feature. Determine both the amount of ducking you would like to add to your samples and the rate at which you desire to duck your samples. (1/2, 1/4, 1/1)
Low/High Pass EQ Filters
