The idea behind Tape glitch was to create an analog tape looper with some features (for example beat slicing) available only in digital looping hardware and software.
During the development it became clear that standard casette tape magnetic heads are unsuitable to write and read data to/from magnetic disc, due to different geometry. At this moment the project is shelved, waiting for technical solution that may be found some time in the future, thus it falls into "beautiful disasters" category, with a few other unfinished projects.
