If you are using Logic 9 with a PC slave this might be of interest. You can use the tape delay in logic as a saturation Plugin. In the output window of the sequencer open Delay>Tape Delay >stereo. When the window opens disable the sync button (bright blue) and set the delay to o.o ms. Set the dry slider to o% and the Wet slider to 100%. The Feedback slider seems to work best at less than 30%. The triangle on the bottom left hand corner opens a distortion slider not sure I hear the effect. You can enable and disable to test the effect of this plugin. I had to disable some of the compressors in MIR to avoid extreme clipping especially drums, but other than that drums seem punchier and instruments have better presence. I saw this on a post on the internet and would like to get some feedback from VSL users on whether this is a useable tape saturation plug in. Regards, Stephen W. Beatty SWBEATTY

I've also used this "poor man's tape saturation plugin" trick as well. You can measure what's going on by inserting a spectrum analyzer on the master bus (I use Voxengo SPAN) and feeding it a 1kHz sine wave; you'll see the odd harmonics being generated as you adjust the Distortion Level parameter (most noticeable when slid towards negative values).

Thanks emspace for the reply, I think it does a good job with tape saturation. It may not be fancy but it is easy to use and combines well with the outputs of compressors in MIR Pro 5. I have no idea how it compares with the high end softwares. Regards, Stephen SWBEATTY
