There are great tutorials of how to create this effect in Blender. The used nodes could be a perfect helper to recreate something similar in Reaper. Here for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qitRVr56Cs

And the output looks awesome.

You can of course add some of this typical VHS noise with overlay or color key but its not possible to recreate color shift and horizontal distortion with that method as the source material needs to get manipulated with the noise. I'm sure this could be done in video processor. The color shift effect was already requested somewhere. (Edit: Haha, it was you Winfield!

Click here!) And the needed wavy distortion doesn't look to complicated. Maybe this effect could be created by using a horizontal color noise overlay, color shift and wavy distortion presets together?

If I get time I will make a test noise overlay like in the blender tutorial to share here for further testing.
