Product Description

CHOW Tape Model is an analog tape machine physical model originally based on the Sony TC-260, implemented as an audio plugin. The physical model was described in a paper presented at the 2019 DAFx conference. This work began as part of a class project for Music 420 at Stanford University (CCRMA).
