Describe the bug
I'm not exactly sure how to describe this in detail other than the output just gets blasted when going through certain patches.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
0. Add a limiter after chowtape in your effects chain (Not necessary, but, don't blow your speakers)

  1. Play some music and keep changing patches to the right until you get to "Phaser Like". When you go to the next patch, it has a stroke and the output goes up by about 40db. thank god I had a limiter on.

Expected behavior
Plugin does not damage eardrums

Screenshots
Here's a video. (I have a limiter on the end, and the overall volume is reduced so don't worry about it being loud.

I also have an issue with some presets :

  • funk that 1987 : jumps at least at +40dBFS, high pitches, stops when turning the tape processing off
  • warehouse 1997 : jumps at least at +40dBFS, low fart sounds, stops when turning the tape processing off
  • disintegrated memories : sometimes hard peak at +40dBFS minimum, then goes back to normal
  • chew loss : sometimes hard peak at +40dBFS minimum, then goes back to normal
    Also by gathering info about this issue i successfully put the plugin in a state where whatever preset is chosen results in the plugin farting all around +40dBFS at least. You can stop the issue by bypassing the tape processing but enabling it again resumes the fart noises.
    It seems that the previous preset sometimes triggers the issue. I discovered that by changing preset with Ardour's menu instead of the included preset navigator ; the presets are not in the same order.

I also have issues with presets being too loud / even clipping and panic-mutign my Reaper tracks. It seems better in VST2, though, if this helps.

Edit: Nvm: seems to be connected to the oversampling. If it is 1x, the clipping occurs.

Edit2: And it seems to happen with the RK2 modal mainly (or maybe only).
