The Tape, Tubes & Transistors Black Friday deal from Waves brings this plugin bundle to $49.99, 83% off, until Nov 26, 2026. It is built around the sound of the 60s and early 70s, from console to tape.
The bundle is a set of plugins that follows a classic recording chain: a Helios console, a Pye compressor and 2-track tape. Waves says that chain continues to inspire producers.
The bundle is tied to engineer Eddie Kramer, who shaped tracks for Led Zeppelin, Hendrix and the Stones in that era. Waves invites you to step into the studio with him.
The three stages mirror how a session was captured at Olympic Studios. Console, compressor and tape sit one after another, the same order the maker describes.
Waves says the plugins bring back the warmth and analog richness of those sessions. It describes the aim as vintage character with the convenience of working in the box.
If you want that console-to-tape chain inside your DAW, this bundle is Waves' version of it.
