Stator

Stator by Sinevibes is a tape wobble effect that brings unstable cassette-style pitch movement to clean recordings. Its engine combines 13 DSP algorithms to recreate wow, flutter and scrape flutter, ranging from gentle pitch drift to restless lo-fi jitter. Separate depth controls for each modulation component let you shape the instability, while individually calibrated stereo phase offsets add width. Variable channel crosstalk introduces chorusing and phasing textures, and an adjustable feedback loop adds further coloration. Try it on synth pads, keys, guitar loops or sampled melodies when you want a worn-tape character rather than a pristine digital finish. Stator suits hobby producers exploring lo-fi, ambient and vintage-inspired sounds. Smooth parameter changes support click-free tweaking, while built-in preset management and an interface scalable to 200% keep everyday use straightforward.
