Description

ToneBoosters ReelBus is a top-quality, authentic, versatile and accurate magnetic tape simulation plug-in bringing warmth and excitement of tape to your iOS or iPadOS device!

Instant gratification from 80s compact cassette sound to professional 30 IPS studio recorder simulation. Sweeten your mix with a touch of tape hysteresis, saturation and compression. Create that 'Boards of Canada' sound by adding a tad of wow-and-flutter. Top it up with tape flanging, echo and tape start/stop effects.

The ToneBoosters ReelBus app captures the microphone (or external sound card) input and processes the signals in real time. To use it as a plug-in, use an AUv3-compatible host app such as Steinberg Cubasis, Apple Garageband, Audio Evolution Mobile Studio, Auria, AUM, or others. ToneBoosters ReelBus will appear in the list of Audio Unit extensions for effect plug-ins.

A bus worth getting on!

ReelBus is easily the best of the tape/ retro effect apps, offering great versatility. Everything from a heavy distress to a light feeling of organic warmth. Now with Master Bus mode, it is even more useful. I can honestly say as someone who owns both, that the IOS ToneBoosters apps sound as good or better than the Fab Filter equivalents, for a fraction of the price. Sometimes less really is more.

Top Tier Effect

I was reluctant to try the TB apps and have held off but who doesn’t like a tape sim. Glad I caved in as it is by far the most organic sounding tape effect on iOS, top drawer. Might have to try the reverb.

By far the best for tape effects

Blown away by how authentic sounding this is. Anything from saturation to delays. From warm tape to metallic. The best analog tape plugin I ever had. Another gem by Toneboosters.
