TAIP

KI-basiertes Tape-Plugin

Tape-Aufnahmen verfügen über eine musikalische Klangqualität, die digitalen Mischungen oft fehlt.
TAIP bringt diese Klangfarben in Ihre DAW und fügt Ihren Tracks eine authentische analoge Wärme hinzu, ohne dass Sie Audio außerhalb Ihrer DAW routen müssen.

Tape-Plugins sind kein neues Konzept. Die Emulationsmethode von Baby Audio jedoch schon. Anstatt einen traditionellen DSP zu verwenden, wurde TAIP mit einem KI-Algorithmus entwickelt, der die unsichtbaren Nuancen analoger Schaltungen decodiert.

Das Ergebnis ist eine originalgetreue Tape-Emulation, die intuitiv und kreativ in der Anwendung ist - mit einigen zusätzlichen Funktionen, die einen modernen Workflow ermöglichen. Verwenden Sie TAIP, um Ihren Tracks einen Hauch von Wärme und Glue zu verleihen, oder verwenden Sie das Plugin als Alternative zu Ihren Distortion-Plugins.

Putting the ‘AI’ in TAIP.

‘AI’ is an overused - and often misused - term. But Baby Audio believe it’s the future of music technology. It just needs to be used genuinely and with a legitimate purpose.

For a hardware emulation project like TAIP, AI offers an alternative - and in their opinion more faithful - approach over the traditional DSP method. Where a normal DSP emulation would entail ‘guesstimating’ the effect of various analog components and their mutual dependencies, Baby Audio can use AI / neural networks to accurately decipher the sonic qualities that make a tape machine sound and behave in the way it does. This happens by feeding an algorithm various training data of dry vs. processed audio and teaching it to identify the exact characteristics that make up the difference. Once these differences have been learned by the AI, we can apply them to new audio.

This process may sound overly digital for a plugin that brings an analog sound. But the reality is that ‘analog’ and ‘digital’ are two fundamentally different domains. To get a computer to behave (or sound!) in a certain way, it helps to think like it does. Re-creating an ‘analog-style’ signal path in DSP is thinking about the problem like a human. The AI approach helps us solve the problem like a machine would - for a more faithful emulation.
