In this video we gathered them all! Slate Digital Tape Machine, McDSP Analog Channel, Beatskillz Reelight, Overloud TAPEDESK, Waves Kramer Tape, Izotope Vintage Tape, Waves J37, Softube TAPE against the Neve 542's analog tape emulators.
A full description of the signal flow and how to use the very simple but at the same time very complex famous Neve 542 Tape Emulators, two units David has been using for year on every mix, and an audio test of them on some mixes, before digging into the biggest shootout of tape plugins emulators 2019 for the first time against real analog gear.
We know some are missing, feel free to write what you want us to include in a possible follow-up video!

Listening on Sennheisers 600 here. Actually I think you were very forgiving! I listened to the plugins first and then after the shootout was completed I went and listened to the Neve Designs. Being an advocate for ITB mixing, especially considering how much has coding evolved, I admit the difference was incredible. The Neves actually sparked a physical reaction from me, not just from the bump itself but from the way the whole thing worked on the material. Didn´t think the difference would be so big to be honest. Excellent video.

Yeah for sure, the real hardware has far more dynamic range and smoothness… the difference is extremely obvious on the Focal trio11 Be studio monitors… pretty difficult for a plugin to duplicate true analog saturation… Still not as good as real tape but way less pain and financial suffering… was enough to get me to invest in a pair of them anyway…

thanks, man! Excelent video! Tape saturation is subtle, and we have to understand what each control is actually doing. You helped a lot to see the differences as the exemple of saturating with the pre input gain versus the saturator (both the Neve 542 and the plugins sounded to me like more low end from the input gain versus saturation knobs, although the input has a narrow limit which starts to fall apart ). The differences between using it on individual tracks versus to mix into it. Thanks a lot!

That'd be like comparing every console emulation against one hardware channel. Different tape units are modeling different circuitry and different tape types, each of which is going to have a different tonal color and a different transient response. I'm glad you said that you're not going to be doing an A/B, because that would be impossible with so many variables.

It seems to me that the Neve 542 is a unique processor.
