Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

Welll, I haven't popped open the one in Sonar, but typically they emulate the
tape machine, 16ips, 30ips etc. means 16 inches per second, which means that
there are more events in one area of the tape, meaning more sonic smearing since
you have to think of your events as blending into each other.  30ips means twice
as much information would be on the actual tape, so less smearing accross
independant events but simultanious events are going to experience tighter
compression. So 16ips should mean more blurring and soft knee compression, 30ips
= less blurring, better fidelity, and tighter compression with a harder
compression edge.  Amount is basically like compression cutoff in decibles.
Some include tape hiss, which really just adds harmonic noise above 16khz.  I
personally don't like the emulated tape hiss, and if you're really into noise
you should check out the some of the MDA vst plugins ;)  I know not in Sonar...

haha i just stumbled across tape saturation on sonar 2.0 today, any
tips on how to use it properly?
