Warmth

[bassbum]

All of the sounds in this track have subtle warmth to them. The warmth doesn't seem to be blending/mashing between sounds so I think it's on every track individually and not done in mastering.

How is it done?
My only guess is that it's done with a analogue compressor or tube distortion?

Tape/tube saturation can be really good for adding warmth, I like to use FabFilter Saturn

You may also record your sound on tape and capture from it again.
If you want to make your sound more vintage, it needs to be equalized different. For example

There are poor high frequency, cut off mids.

I just realised I have the Waves Kramer Master Tape. Its really nice. I'm going to use it a send effect to all the channels for some warmth. The Noise feature is nice.

That looks sweet.
