Izotope Vinyl: Emulate Analog Warmths

A software plugin emulating dust, noise, and warp of vinyl records, adding analog warmth and character to digital audio for music production, post-production, and live performance.

What is Izotope Vinyl?

Izotope Vinyl is a software plugin used to emulate the unique sound and imperfections of vinyl records. It can add the crackles, pops, dust, and warp of vinyl to clean digital audio, helping to create vintage warmth and analog character.

Some of the features of Izotope Vinyl include:

  • The ability to control the amount of dust, scratches, mechanical noise, pinch/warp effects, wear, and variability in the sound
  • Options to change the simulated year, RPM, and vinyl color/quality
  • Both Stereo and Mono processing
  • 64-bit support
  • Compatibility with major DAWs and audio editors like Pro Tools, Logic, Ableton, and more
  • Works as VST, AU, RTAS, and AAX plugin formats

Izotope Vinyl is commonly used by music producers and engineers to add vintage character to recordings. It can provide cohesion when blending analog and digital sounds. The plugin simulates the natural compression and saturation associated with vinyl playback as well.

It also has creative sound design applications for creating lo-fi, experimental, or vintage styles. DJs and performing musicians could use Izotope Vinyl to simulate spinning physical records during a live set. Post-production professionals can use the plugin to make digital audio seem more authentic to a specific time period.
