What is Audio Hertz VHS Home Video Flavor Box?

The Audio Hertz VHS Home Video Flavor Box plugin is an effect plugin that gives you the ability to transform your clean digital audio by adding the nostalgic grit and warmth of old vintage VHS tapes and home videos into your signal.

Key Features

• Clean & Intuitive Interface: Looks and feels like a real tape deck, with an intuitive layout and satisfying controls that are designed to be fun and inspiring. No menu diving here.

• Two consumer VCR device models:
  • 1979 JVC Vidstar HR-7600U: This is one of the earliest VCR units ever made. Chunky saturation with a warm bass boost.
  • 2001 Panasonic PV-V4521: Gritty, overdriven texture when driven hard.
• Authentic VCR Saturation: DSP‑modeled analog‑style distortion based on overloaded VHS decks.
• Built-In Limiter: Emulates VCR-style squashing of dynamics – controls peaks while preserving colour.
• 8-Band Graphic EQ: Shape your tone with precision – tame noise, carve space, or push the VHS flavour further.
• Noise Generator + Wow & Flutter: Add tape hiss, mechanical noise, pitch instability, and wow/flutter for authentic tape transport character.
