I have used this effect many times in many tracks, but I still wouldn’t agree that it’s a make or break feature that is necessary. At most, it is useful.
However, I will also temper that with the fact that every single electro track to come out in the last 6 months uses it at the end of each phrase (often it’s every single bar) - and it’s becoming a horrible cliche now. In fact, it has now invaded the charty/pop/dance world too, with everyone copying Avicii.
Make your tracks as interesting as possible, but don’t add tape stop effect just because everyone else is doing it.
Try doing it manually or maybe using a vst like Effectrix (which does have a Mac version)
