Extended Parameter Settings
For some parameters there exist additional switches that allow to slightly alter the behavior
of the machine. As they are less performative they are a bit more hidden.

FEEDBACK

Extended Setting
LoFi Tape (LED off; default). When lowering the tape speed, the input signal
is just resampled at a different rate with no additional ltering. This will
cause interesting aliasing effects. Furthermore, the upsampling process is
intentionally made less accurate with low tape speeds, emphasising this
character even more.
HiFi Tape (LED on). Before resampling, the input signal is lowpass- ltered
to reduce aliasing; in the upsampling process linear interpolation is used.
This implementation is closer to the behavior of an analog tape machine.
Negative Feedback (LED off; default) or positive Feedback (LED on). When
building a comb lter, this will result in odd or even harmonics.
The three extra read heads either react to the SYNC switch (LED on; default)
or not (LED off).
