Rewind to the VHS era
As kids of the 1980s we've always been drawn to the sound of slightly out-of-tune synths, warm tape saturation, gritty samples and grainy reverbs. So we set out on a mission to capture our favorite decade and bring it into a new decade.

Super VHS
Six effects to degrade clean tracks
Super VHS brings you the sound of the VHS-era in six one-knob effects.
✱ Static: Static VHS noise generated by an internal synthesizer.
✱ Heat: Tape saturator, inspired by consumer-grade machines.
✱ Shape: Sample rate reducer inspired by 1980s 8-bit samplers.
✱ Magic: Ensemble FX inspired by the Juno chorus – but darker and deeper.
✱ Drift: Pitch fluctuation LFO for unpredictable time and pitch shifting.
✱ Wash: ‘Bad hall’ reverb inspired by low budget 1980s rack units.
Lo-fi dreams
Using Super VHS will be like sending your sounds back in time, then re-discovering them on a worn-out VHS tape 30 years later.
Super VHS adds gritty lo-fi authenticity to whatever clean sound you run through it, especially as you mix and match the effects. Each effect has just a single knob but controls multiple parameters under the hood, allowing for a quick workflow and unpredictable results.

"Super VHS has become an indispensable part of my mix workflow. It instantly adds texture and an immersive quality to synths, drum machines, and even some background vocals. I've used it on mixes for Chromeo and Dirty Projectors recently and it's made synth pads feel truly technicolor and 3D."

"To say that Super VHS only works with lo-fi music will be a huge mistake, this plugin works for EVERY genre and instrument. Try it on brass arrangements and let the magic happen."
Ella Bric
Latin Grammy Award-Winner, Songwriter, and Producer
“All Baby Audio plugins are great, though Super VHS currently has our hearts. It adds instant warmth and fullness; We love to use it for variety and texture on synthesizers. Comeback Kid is a close second favorite, but we really do love them all. Each product adds such a breath of creativity and depth.”
