The Ampex ATR-102 brings the warmth, depth and character of the legendary mastering tape machine to your DAW.

The entire ATR-102 circuit is modelled, including transformers and amplifiers, with selectable tape types, tape delay, wow and flutter. Auto-Gain keeps perfect gain staging while adjusting Repro and Record levels; the sound glues mixes together and is ideal for the mix bus and mastering.
