Vintage sounds for cutting-edge productions

Bazzazian Tapes digs deep into the archives of one of the most pioneering producers in German hip hop. Packed with character and curiosity, it delivers an eclectic collection of melodic instruments, all run through high-end rack gear, vintage tape machines, and boutique pedals. From retro keyboards and modular synth leads to e-bowed guitars, antique harmoniums, and woodwinds, it’s got all you need to bring a retro flair to modern productions.

The Sound Editor page lets you modify the individual sound sources (A/B) – giving you access to tuning, filters, panning, and envelopes.
Customize the effects chain of any preset with the Effects Editor. Quickly swap out effects using the dropdown menu, or change the order via drag-and-drop.
Quickly generate ideas with a flexible 16-step sequencer. You can also modulate up to six assignable macros such as filter or distortion.
Edit the assigned macro controls, control parameter ranges, change macro mappings, and create your own custom controls from one dedicated page. The coloured macro dots give you visual feedback on your mappings for maximum ease of use.
Customize the instrument your way from the Settings page. Edit key ranges, adjust velocity curves, and more.
The main page of the instrument gives you a simple interface designed to help you focus on playing. Quickly tweak sounds using the six assignable macros.
