What RC-20 Retro Color Does

RC-20 Retro Color has six modules: noise, wobble, distortion, digital degradation, reverb, and volume drops. Mix them to create worn tape, vinyl, and vintage digital textures.

Sound and Workflow

Its noise options include tape hiss and vinyl crackle, while the degrader adds bit- and sample-rate reduction associated with older samplers. A global amount slider helps scale the combined effect, with presets for drums, keys, guitars, bass, and mixes.

Analog Gold Take

Choose this if you want quick control over several kinds of retro wear in one plugin rather than separate processors for each artifact.
