Tape Saturation and Silk Voicings
Harmonic saturation grows as more gain is applied, and a soft clipper engages at higher levels to tame peak transients. Two selectable 15 and 30 IPS modes change the character of the tape sound, and a pre/post-tape emulation blend control sets how much of the effect is mixed in.
Silk Red emphasizes transformer-modeled saturation in the high and high-mid frequencies, the range the developer associates with its vintage equipment. Silk Blue adds saturation to the lows and low-mids, which can add thickness and weight to a source. The Texture knob sets how rich and saturated the result is, and disengaging Silk gives a cleaner, hi-fi tape effect.
