The deal

$29.99 at KVR Marketplace (down from $149.00). Sale ends June 1, 2026.

What it is

Reel-To-Reel is a tape saturation plugin from Antelope Audio that recreates the warmth and character of vintage reel-to-reel tape machines. It models the interplay between tape formulas, tape heads, and analog electronic components to produce harmonic saturation and subtle compression that made classic tape recordings sound so full. It comes in two versions - a standard native plugin and a Synergy Core real-time version for Antelope Audio interfaces.

Who it's for

Producers and engineers looking to add analog warmth and vintage color to modern recordings at any stage - tracking, mixing, or mastering. Antelope Audio hardware users get the added benefit of running the Synergy Core version directly on their interface DSP, which adds tape character without burning CPU cycles.

Key features

• Four selectable tape types covering a range of vintage characters from clean warmth to heavy saturation
• Bias, hiss, wow and flutter controls let you fine-tune the tape effect from barely perceptible to obviously degraded
• Assignable VU meter for monitoring signal levels at input or output
• Native plugin and Synergy Core real-time version both included in a single purchase
