Mastering-Grade Vintage Tape Warmth — Now Ethereum++ Enhanced

AnalogX proudly presents the next evolution in tape emulation: a detailed, immersive recreation of the OTARI MTR-10 2-track mastering deck — captured at both 15ips and 7.5ips, then modeled using our Ethereum++ architecture for maximum realism and responsiveness in the Genesis engine.

This is not just tape tone. This is the trusted sound of analog broadcast, radio, vinyl prep, and classic mastering rooms—refined and reborn for your digital sessions.

🎚️ What’s Inside

This Ethereum++ pack includes 6 tape machine emulations across two tape speeds, offering everything from flat mastering tone to rich magnetic saturation:

• Medium Speed (15ips) – Regular
• Medium Speed (15ips) – Pushed
• Medium Speed (15ips) – Hot
• Low Speed (7.5ips) – Regular
• Low Speed (7.5ips) – Hot
• Legacy Capture – MTR-10 Drive/Function T (Classic Emulation)

All captures were made at 96 kHz using high-end conversion and processed into Ethereum++ .gen format for ultra-smooth harmonic curves and rich temporal behaviour. Use the medium speed profiles for hi-fi detail, or hit the low-speed tapes for extra warmth, smear, and analog glue.

🧬 A Brief History

Launched in the late 1970s, the OTARI MTR-10 quickly became a favourite for professional studios, radio stations, and mastering houses. It combined precise servo tape transport, high-fidelity audio electronics, and robust construction—making it one of the most widely used 2-track machines for over two decades.

It earned a reputation not just for accuracy, but for musicality. The 15ips speed became a staple for final mix-downs, while the 7.5ips setting offered a rounder, heavier vibe perfect for more colored work. Now, thanks to Ethereum++, the essence of this reel-to-reel icon is fully reborn—in real time, in your DAW.

💡 Why It Stands Out

• Both Speeds Captured – 15ips for clarity, 7.5ips for warmth
• Ethereum++ Architecture – High-res modeling, smooth dynamic saturation
• Multiple Drive Levels – From subtle sheen to full magnetic push
• Tonal Versatility – Great on vocals, buses, synths, full mixes, and mastering chains
• Mastering-Grade Clarity – Retains transients while adding body

⚙️ Product Features

• Captured at 96 kHz | Modeled at 48 kHz for real-time Genesis playback
• Ethereum++ Powered – High temporal resolution and natural tape behavior
• Calibrated for –18 dBFS RMS with red Drive at unity gain (12 o' clock)

Near analog… we don’t pretend to be analog, we don't market our products as analog, but we think we are nearer than most — we’ll let the user decide.
