Tip:
Tape Speed, CAL level, and EQ configurations that are commonly used for
the recording of specific genres.
IPS
(Tape Speed)
15 IPS is considered the favorite for rock and acoustic music due to its low fre-
quency "head bump" (low frequency rise) and warmer sound, while 30 IPS is
the norm for classical and jazz due to its lower noise floor, greater fidelity and
flatter response. 7.5 IPS is also available for an even more colored experi-
ence, with even greater frequency shift.
Tip:
The OFF position is a bypass control. When set to OFF, emulation processing
is disabled, the VU Meter and control LEDs are dimmed, and DSP usage is re-
duced. OFF is useful for comparing the processed settings to the original sig-
nal. OFF is identical to the Thru position in the Path Select control
Note:
If DSP LoadLock is enabled (the default setting), activating OFF will not reduce
DSP usage.
Input
Input acts as an outside gain control (like an external console
fader), and adjusts the signal level going into the tape cir-
cuitry. The available range is –12 dB to +24 dB.

The UAD Studer A800 default bank offers a variety of preset Tape Type,
The IPS (Inches Per Second) control determines the speed of
the tape transport and the associated "head bump."
(Head bump is bass frequency build-up that occurs with mag-
netic tape; the dominant frequencies shift according to trans-
port speed.)
