Complete Tape Machine

All-In-One Tape Processing

Everything you need for authentic tape sound in one beautiful interface

TM700 V3 Full Interface

 

Neural Tape Saturation

At the heart of TM700 V3 is NCM (Neural Component Modeling) trained on a legendary American 2-track 1/4" tape machine with SM9 tape formulation. The main panel gives you direct control over the core tape saturation engine and dynamics.

TM700 V3 Tape Saturation Controls

  • Drive: Push the tape from subtle warmth to heavy saturation
  • Soft / Hard: Two bias modes for different saturation character
  • Autogain: Automatic level compensation as you drive harder
  • Speed: Variable tape speed control for tonal shaping
  • Tape Type (Old / New): Two distinct tape character modes
  • Comp: Independent tape compression control for tape dynamics
  • Spectrum Analyzer: Real-time frequency visualizer
  • Phase Correlation Meter: Monitor stereo phase alignment

 

Advanced Controls

The Advanced panel reveals a complete set of tape character controls, tone shaping tools, and signal routing. Add authentic wow & flutter, tape hiss, and dropout effects. Shape your tone with the 2-band parametric EQ and add dimension with spatial width.

TM700 V3 Advanced Panel

  • Input / Output Trim: Precise signal level control
  • Dry/Wet Mix: Parallel processing blend
  • Wow & Flutter: Authentic tape speed modulation
  • Tape Hiss: Real sampled tape noise blending
  • Dropout: Realistic tape dropout effects
  • 2-Band Parametric EQ: With frequency, gain & Q
  • Spatial Width: Stereo image enhancement
  • LP/HP Filters: For precise tone sculpting

 

NCM Technology

Machine learning meets analog tape

TM700 V3 NCM Technology

Why Neural Beats Traditional Modeling

Traditional tape emulations use mathematical approximations of analog behavior. NCM (Neural Component Modeling) takes a fundamentally different approach — our neural networks are trained directly on real analog hardware at 96kHz, learning the actual nonlinear behavior, harmonic interactions, and frequency-dependent responses that equations simply cannot capture.

The result is authentic tape character that responds dynamically to your input, just like the original machine. Every nuance of tape saturation, head bump, and compression is preserved in the neural model.

  • 96kHz Trained
  • Real Hardware Capture
  • Auto 2x Oversampling
  • True Nonlinearities
