## Tap Delay Description
Back in the “old days”, producers and engineers created delay and echo effects using tape machines. Tap Delay combines the warm sound of vintage tape echo machines with a modern, step sequencer-like tapped delay engine which continues the tradition of the tape echo machines into the 21st century.

The Tape simulation includes all relevant aspects for the recreation of a faithful analog tape sound:

• Compression and Saturation
• Tape hiss
• Tape head bias
• Wow and Flutter (Tape speed instability)
• Smooth speed / delay time changes

Three feedback filters with hipass/lowpass and bandpass characteristic simplify the creation of authentic dub echo effects.

The built-in Limiter allows for endless feedback sounds.

Use live input from any source - Microphone, Guitar, Audiobus and Inter App Audio - or take a song from your iTunes library for processing.

Features:

• Multi-tap delay machine
• 24 taps for rhythmic delay effects
• Tape simulation ( Saturation, Noise, Flutter )
• Alias free tape saturation through oversampling.
• MIDI controllable including Tempo sync
• Delay loop equalizer for dub effect.
• Glitch free simulation of variable tape speeds.
• Spatial echo rotation effect.
• Audiobus 3 compatible with state saving
• IAA compatible ( Auria, Cubasis, Garageband ).
• AudioUnit AUv3 with parameter automation.
• Ableton Link.
• Integrated iTunes player.

## Tap Delay Reviews in United States

### ***** "AU seems to have been fixed on repeated reinstall."
Ignore. Tried reinstall again, and it now works…
-- MusixMonkey, 2023-03-16

### ***** "Love this app - update"
3 years since my last review. This is still one of my go-to delays.

For long delays and loops there is NOTHING better. As an all-around delay there’s nothing better. AU capability just made it that much better. It’s just so useful! So there!!
-- anickt, 2022-06-04

### ***** "Sweet!"
Great effects, clean interface, excellent price!  Thanks for taking the time to label all the features in the app when clicking the help button.  So many developers just assume we all know what all these things do, now how the hell are we supposed to learn?  Devs like you, helping us to goof off!  Appreciate it

Buy this app while it’s still on sale!  Similar apps are 5x the price
-- Codowlsky Polopumus, 2020-04-24

### ****- "A couple bugs but cool sounding"
Some very interesting sounds, there’s a bug that makes the app crash when trying to export presets. Hope things get ironed out soon.
-- Strizbiz, 2017-12-26

### ***** "Oh my! This is an absolute gem!"
I held off purchasing Tap Delay for a long time as I already have an arsenal of great delay fx apps. But because of a sale I decided to try it out. 

I’ll say it flat out - this is absolutely my favorite delay fx of all time. Possibly my favorite of any fx. It’s just beautiful. I don’t think I’ll use any other delay going forward unless I’m looking for a pure digital sound. 

So far I’ve only tried it on some of my pre-recorded loops. I can’t wait to try it in my live guitar fx chain.
-- wareismike, 2017-12-21

### *---- "App Doesn't Work"
Using iPad Air with iOS 10. App either loads but does not respond to touch or produce sound, or will load using Audiobus but has audio dropout and static.
-- reason_being, 2016-09-27

### ***** "Amazing"
The name 'Tap Delay' might be misleading: yes this app is a fantastic delay but it's so much more than Just a delay: looking to dirty-up a piece of audio? Tap Delay.  Looking to vocoder-esque-modulate something? Tap Delay.  Looking to create a full-blown polyrhythm out of 2 beats? Tap Delay. The IAA menu-ette is the best I've seen and the app Sounds brilliant.  Classify under Hell Yes.
