Services Logo Tape Bounce

Digital stereo master feeling off? Have you tweaked and tweaked for days, bought expensive plug-ins, pulled all your hair out, and your mix still doesnt have that.... that... thing. Looks like you need a OES Tape Bounce! If your track feels like all the stems are arriving uninvited, and dressed for different kinda parties, and arguing about the news... its because they didnt ride there in the same car! Weak metaphors aside, having all your stems, or even just your left and right channels bounced out of the sharp harsh and cold digital landscape of the computer onto the same physical piece of tape glues your tracks or streo bus better than any plog-in can emulate. Think about it, suddenly they all have something in common, its almosty literally gluing everything together, the act of allowing it to live in our realm for a moment, in the physicasl world, all holding hands on the same physical stip of rust covered plastic.

Options

  • Stereo Out Bounce

    your choice of cassette or 1/4 inch reel to reel tape
    you send me your stereo mix and i bounce it out of my MOTU professional Digital to Analog Converter to my Halftrack Stereo Tascam 32 1/4 inch Reel to Reel Master Recorder, or my Tascam 202MkiV Professional Cassette Master Recorder. Let it sit for exactly thirty minutes (this is CRUCIAL), then bounce it back to my computer using the handy Analog to Digital functionality of the MOTU (so kind they provide both) and you take a listen and tell me you love it!
