Product Description:

Augustus Loop is an emulation of a tape-based delay effect, with some extra features to facilitate its use as a looping device. The key features of Augustus Loop that make it more than just a big delay effect are:
  • Really long maximum delay (3600 seconds
  • that's one hour).
  • Tap length/tap record. You can set the loop delay time while recording your first phrase.
  • Virtual tape. The delay simulates an old-style tape delay, meaning you can --change the tape speed (i.e. pitch up and down) --reverse the tape direction --smoothly change the delay time (as if you were changing the head gap on a tape delay).
  • Multimode filter and saturation in the feedback loop.
  • Four feedback taps (left to left, left to right, right to left and right to right) with independent delay time and feedback settings, for ping-pong effects, stereo delays etc.
  • Pitch and filter LFOs.
  • Loop length can be set in terms of the host's tempo setting.
  • The plug-in can output MIDI clock messages to synchronise other applications to its loop.

What's new in this version:

  • Fixed a problem where Augustus Loop's GUI would stop Logic's Key Commands from working.
  • Fixed an issue which could cause Apple’s AU validation tool (as used by Logic) to run very slowly when validating Augustus Loop on OS X Leopard.

Augustus Loop ReviewBest tape machine simulation I've ever heard........ - Version: 1.0, 6/7/2004 05:05AM PST

seems very stable compared to a lot of similar long delay effects. Fairly good GUI...... considering a lot of music plug-ins have dreadful ones. Using this with Logic, it would be nice to see that this was synced to the track's BPM..... I've a feeling it might not be which makes it less useful to me just for long delayed repeats. So, although I'm currently bowled over by the tape effects it would depend on how often I actually needed them as to whether I would buy it.
