FlyTape 2 builds on the principles of the original FlyTape. However, FlyTape 2 is a complete rewrite and has been vastly improved in both features and stability. A love of vintage sounds and character is our thing and FlyTape 2 fits this ethos as a unique take on the features of classic tape.

Named for it's style, performance and user improvisation control, it’s FX can be added to incoming audio signals in many ways "on the fly". Sliders for textured nuances such as noise hiss will allow you to dial in tasteful settings reminiscent of cassette tapes. These also can be automated via midi cc for additional modulation.

FlyTape 2 installs as an iOS AUv3 plugin effect, designed for use within host apps such as Garageband, Beatmaker 3, Cubasis, Audiobus, and more.

User Reviews

Fly Tape 2 is praised for its powerful real-time, tape-style FX that add depth for on-the-fly mobile production and sound design, and is seen as more feature-rich than the original. However, it struggles with DAW compatibility (notably GarageBand iOS), cannot bake or automate effects into tracks, and offers limited per-effect control. Documentation/refund friction also appears. A standalone version and expanded controls would address the main drawbacks while preserving its strong live-use appeal.

Pros

Powerful real-time tape-style FX with depth and vibe
More options and improved functionality compared to the original Fly Tape
Great for on-the-fly, mobile beat-making and live performance
High-quality, punchy FX that enhance iOS music production

Cons

DAW/host compatibility issues, especially with GarageBand iOS and other hosts
Cannot bake or automate effects into tracks; effects disappear on export
Limited per-effect control; mostly presets with few adjustable parameters
Documentation issues (broken manual link) and occasional refund friction

I can’t use it anymore on GarageBand IOS and suggested me to contact you. Please help I’m doing a cypher beat. I’m running out of time.

Purchased this hoping to use it in GarageBand. Instructions when opening the app say to visit the manual. When clicking the link it brings you to a page that “No longer exists” - Looking for refund
