EVP Tape Recorder (DR60 Style)

🎙️ EVP Tape Recorder is not a typical voice recorder.

It’s a modern digital recorder designed to behave like a real analogue tape machine — unpredictable, imperfect, and full of character.

Built for EVP sessions, field recording, and experimental audio, the app deliberately avoids “perfect” digital clarity. Instead, it recreates the subtle quirks of tape recording: drift, noise, wear, and mechanical instability. The result is audio that feels organic, alive, and authentic 📼✨

📼 A True Analogue-Style Recording Experience

EVP Tape Recorder captures uncompressed WAV audio while emulating the sound and behaviour of classic tape machines. Optional tape effects introduce realism over time — wear builds, drift creeps in, and the noise floor becomes part of the recording, just like real tape.

⏯️ Playback That Behaves Like Tape

Forward and reverse playback behave physically, with variable speed, pitch-corrected audio, looping, and scrubbing. Tape wear continues during playback, meaning every listen subtly changes the recording.

🧭 Sensor-Driven Instability (Optional)

For those who want deeper realism, the app can optionally use your device’s magnetometer. Changes in the surrounding magnetic field subtly influence tape behaviour, introducing natural instability.

🎛️ A Visual Tape Interface

The interface is designed to feel like a real tape deck:
animated reels, visible tape movement, and transport controls built directly into the tape itself. Playback direction and progress are always clear at a glance.

📁 Simple, Purpose-Built File Management

Recordings are saved automatically as WAV files. You can review, share, or delete recordings directly from the tape interface using intuitive swipe actions — no clutter, no complexity.

👻 Who Is EVP Tape Recorder For?

EVP investigators, paranormal researchers, experimental audio users, sound designers — or anyone fascinated by analogue-style recording behaviour.

⚠️ Important Notes

Sensor data is used solely to influence recording and playback behaviour.
Interpretation of recorded audio is always the responsibility of the user.
