  • VHS Glitch captures the nostalgic yet futuristic sounds of a vintage VCR and VHS tape, recorded with stereo condenser and electromagnetic mics to capture the playback mechanics.

The result is a library rich in lo-fi, distorted, and otherworldly sounds, perfect for projects needing a retro-tech vibe or sci-fi edge.
