u-he takes you back to the golden era of tape recording with the Satin plug-in. The plugin recreates the work of tape recorders of all kinds. The developers went further and added the old noise reduction systems that were often used as a tone compression effect, as well as added more heads to create a tape delay. The plug-in allows you to achieve authentic sound due to soft harmonic distortion, non-linear compression, uneven frequency response, as well as due to pitch instability.
The plug-in also allows you to continuously adjust the speed of the tape, which in turn changes the nature of the sound, low speed introduces more noise and reduces high frequencies, high speed sacrifices low frequencies. The Service panel provides access to complex parameters including wow and flutter, offset and physical attributes of the repro head.
