EFM has released 8-Track v0.2, a VST plug-in that can record audio projects. 8-Track is based on the classis cassette portable studio but adds new functions that can only be done without using tape.
Many controls can be automated and projects can be saved as patches. Tracks can be manipulated (reverse, loop, restart, speed up/down, etc.) or recorded as you would with a regular tape deck.
