- Tape Saturation & Doubletracker User Manual
Features

SOUND DESIGN

• Detailed recreation of the mechanics of two vintage studio reel-to-reel tape decks and their interactions
• Nuanced sonic delivery of the classic saturation effects of the tape record/playback process
• Simple and intuitive Lag Time knob allows for slapback delays, tape echoes, tape flanging, tape chorusing
• Two Tape Saturation adjustment and tone shaping knobs: Saturation, Level
• Three Doubletracker adjustment and tone shaping knobs: Lag Time, Blend, Wobble
• Three Doubletracker blend types to tailor doubletracked sound: Sum, Invert, Bounce
• Five secondary parameters: High Trim, Low Trim, Auto-Flange Time, Wide Stereo Mode, +/- 3dB Boost/Cut
• Press and hold studio-inspired Auto-Flange effect
INS, OUTS, & SWITCHES
• High impedance mono input (internal jumper enables selectable TRS stereo input)
• Stereo output
• Two signal routing modes: Standard, Wide Stereo Mode
• Individual Tape Saturation Bypass and Doubletracker Bypass footswitches
• Expression pedal input allows the connection of either an expression pedal (for selectable control over any
knob parameter), external tap pedal (for remote time control of Doubletracker), or Favorite switch (to save a
Favorite preset)
