Tincture
Seven flavors of analog character, one knob to dial them in. From barely-there tape warmth to full lo-fi destruction - the cleanest color box you'll buy this year, and the lo-fi hero of the RIPPLES catalogue.

One plugin,
seven analog rooms.
Tape, Tube, Console, Cassette, Vinyl, Radio and Phone - each mode carries its own harmonic profile and frequency response. Pick a vial off the shelf to switch flavors - the Dose dial pours in the amount, the liquid rising as you push. CPU stays low enough to run a different mode on every track.
Tape & Tube
Reel-to-reel softening and valve warmth - the natural compression that smooths transients while it enriches.
Console, Cassette & Vinyl
Desk glue, wow-and-flutter character and vinyl-style warmth - the sound of a record before the music.
Radio & Phone
Band-limited grit and lo-fi telephone color - use as a transition, a filter, or an entire aesthetic.
Goes well with.
One-knob finishing glow. Use Tincture for character, Luster for the final polish.
A complete channel chain - EQ, dynamics, saturation and an oversampled stage in one strip.
Vinyl gestures for the color you just dialed in.
