AudioThing has announced an update to the Wires soviet wire recorder emulation.
Version 1.2 of the plugin that was developed in collaboration with electronic music composer and performer Hainbach now has beta support of the new CLAP format, a new open standard for audio plugins and hosts. The update also includes some improvements and fixes.
Made originally for military and secret service use across the Iron Curtain, in the hands of a few avant garde musicians it became a magical lofi-tool and ghostly echo machine. Now this rare and rather finicky to operate piece of hardware is available for the first time as a faithful yet modern plugin. Transform your audio to the world of numbers stations and secret operations, dub out to very unusual echoes or make the most lofi beats to study too.
