  • Adding tape saturation

    Hi,

    I would like to experiment with tape saturation. I wonder where I should add the Saturator in the Synchron Player. My first guess is to use an Aux channel, and send all microphones there, all with a 0dB send level.

    If I read the mixer correctly, the Aux sends should be like bus inserts in a traditional mixer, and come just before the Reverb send, that is placed at the very end of the bus FX rack. This should make tape saturation the equivalent of a multitrack tape recorder, to which artificial reverb is then applied.
