Vinyl is a plug-in that lets you simulate the dust, scratches, and warp of a worn record and the electrical and mechanical noise of the turntable it’s on.
Give fresh recordings and instrument tracks the dirty, dusty feel of an earlier decade. Apply Vinyl to any source audio to make it sound as if it’s being played from a record and dial in exactly the right character to suit your tune.
To get the full vinyl experience, add a little bit of each of the artifacts that give vinyl its characteristic sound. With Vinyl’s digital emulation of the real thing, you can dial in as much or as little as you want for a level of flexibility that’s impossible with hardware. Get an old radio sound that’s still musically accurate by adding hiss, crackle, and saturation without adding warble to it. Or, add just a warble effect without introducing a high noise floor. Vinyl allows you to be selective about what lo-fi elements you want to add to your mix.
The lo-fi sound of Vinyl can be used to create a section of your mix that sounds like it’s from a different era. It’s useful both in music production and in audio for film or television. Treat the audio for your picture to make it sound as if it’s coming from an authentic on screen old-fashioned source. In a musical context, use Vinyl to shape your mix, to create an effective counterpoint that plays against another huge or wide section of your arrangement.
