Tape Saturator
Tape Saturator simulates the behavior of classic tape recorders. These machines produced a specific saturation when recording higher input levels, which led to a compressed signal with light distortion.
- Mode
-
Allows you to choose between the effect of a single tape machine (One Stage) or two cascaded tape machines (Two Stage).
Two Stage mode leads to higher saturation and compression.
- Oversampling
-
Increases the accuracy of the effect by oversampling.
NoteIf this parameter is activated, the effect requires more processing power.
- Drive
-
Determines the level of the input signal and thus the amount of saturation.
- Auto Gain
-
Results in automatic level compensation.
- Low Filter
-
Allows you to adjust the low frequency range below 1000 Hz by +/- 3 dB.
- High Filter
-
Allows you to attenuate the high frequency range. This high-cut filter works with a slope of 24 dB/octave.
- Output
-
Determines the level of the output signal.
