Bedroom Producers Blog released BPB Dirty VHS for free

Bedroom Producers Blog released BPB Dirty VHS, a freeware VHS tape simulation effect in VST3 and AU plugin formats for Windows and macOS.

My favorite way to make something sound analog and lo-fi is to record it to a VHS tape and then re-sample it into the DAW. The technique has been used by numerous artists, most notably by Boards of Canada, who pioneered the intentional lo-fi VHS sound in electronic music.
However, the technique is time-consuming and a bit fiddly, especially if you don’t have the space to keep a VCR connected to your music production setup at all times.
For those reasons, I always dreamed of having an authentic-sounding effect that would simulate all the imperfections of a piece of audio resampled from a VHS tape.
Luckily, I had the chance to team up with Toybox Audio (the developer behind Thump One), who helped me turn my VHS effect idea into a plugin.
BPB Dirty VHS includes eight different VCR and VHS combinations, each with unique pitch and volume inconsistencies, tone characteristics, and authentic VHS noise.
We deeply analyzed different video cassette recorders, including those that still run perfectly and those in desperate need of repair. We extracted the data and used it to create eight distinct models which are now available in BPB Dirty VHS.
