Tape certainly affects sound, in exactly this way. I don't think that I'll ever start buying cassette recordings, but I routinely use different tape-emulating plugins in my music production to get this particular type of distortion, and I don't think that there are better words to describe it.
- johnnycab 7y agoYou seem to have gone off on a tangent, with regards to emulating the 'sound' via plugins and distortion filters for music production, without actually having to invest in the physical medium. Whereas, I was commenting on the banality of resuscitating a flawed format based upon nostalgia.
- golergka 7y agoThe point is, the tape effect on the sound itself is very real, and it's indeed "warm and saturated" - it's not typical audiophile snake oil.
