I can tell you though that on H-Delay Analog 3 & 4 settings are tape emulations, while 1 & 2 are loosely based on early classic analogue style delays. You might be a able to conjure up something similar sounding.

I setup a mock delay version by using Studio rack and parallel split, Invert the phase on 2nd copy and adjust levels until you have mostly a null and then add the delay. I cant get a very good null though due to the W&F

I already asked for a wet/dry of th just the tape but worked out they would never do it because it seems a lot of work waves might not be interested
However creating a phase inverse to simply get the delay out should be quite simple

The tape delay feature is pretty cool, especially when you take out the hissy highs with the lowpass filter. If you use it as an aux channel for delay, go ahead and drive it into some distortion and adjust to taste. Or ear.

This is my tribute to the sound that shaped my childhood. I discovered the passion for music between quirks and random fluctuations. Watching the meters move as I sang into an old microphone. Red peaks and analog saturation.
Rewind, listen again.

Magnetic tape is not a sterile media. It will impart its own sound signature to signals recorded into it. These include different frequency response, frequency dependent saturation, high-frequency compression, hiss, asperity noise and much more.

This luxury set includes 2 Hinoki decorative tapes featuring UV oil printing for crisp details and a brand new holographic shell effect for an added luxurious sparkle. Cut your desired design without wastage with the backing paper so you can save the rest of the tape. The illustration loops are extra long (1m and 50cm) meaning more designs per roll, more options for creativity!

Waves and play parks may be owned by the municipality or by the state. Non-profit organizations, private donors, or voter-approved bond packages may fund their construction and maintenance. And urban redevelopment groups or paddlesports clubs may initiate their development, or they may be part of a larger plan for ecological restoration in altered river systems.

Last summer, I was lucky enough to drive around the West with my sweetheart Nate in our truck packed with bikes and playboats. Our itinerary took us from southern Colorado to the coast of California, back up through Oregon and Idaho, and eventually toward our home in Missoula, Montana, visiting friends, seeing live music, and stopping at whitewater parks along the way.

Four days later, we broke down our camp, totally throttled by a powerful festival-borne G.I. funk. We limped northward and slept in Crescent City, where someone cut the cable lock off the top of the truck in an unsuccessful attempt to repossess our bikes. The next morning, we drove to Bend, Oregon, in a feeble effort to resume our tour of whitewater parks and wash away the post-festival sickness.

Inspired by the success of the Boise River Park 300 miles away, in 2012 the residents of Bend, Oregon, voted for a $29 million dollar bond package that included funding for their own whitewater park. The Bend Whitewater Park replaced a 1915-era dam on the Deschutes River. It features a whitewater channel with four separate standing waves controlled by pneumatic bladders, a more docile channel for tubers and floaters, and a third channel with slow-moving water, intended as habitat for wildlife.

There are too many pizza joints to list within walking or biking distance of the whitewater park. We recommend you just ask a local for their favorite spot. Bend is a haven for people who love good beer and food.

As the Marketing Director for Hy-Tape I have witnessed the many ways that our unique brand of tape has helped patients, casual users, and parents. I can get into examples of how those with ostomies, ileostomies, long term care patients, neonates, and the list goes on, but what I would like to present is a real world trial of the tape that I use regularly on myself, my kids, and push to those who I believe it may benefit.

My girls are 6 and 10. Both in good health and very active. Like most, we are staying home and making the best of things. They take online karate classes, play in the yard, swim in my parents pool, and run around like normal kids. My goal was to see how well our tape stuck to them on an above average temperature weekend. We began Friday afternoon, a couple of hours before karate class. They ran outside with our new puppy, then ate dinner before doing 45 minutes of karate. The next day the temperatures rose to 90 degrees and most of the day was spent in the pool. I made sure to position the tape in areas where there would be friction, and to leave it untouched. Sunscreen was applied over the top of the tape. Hy-Tape is UPF50+ so there was no need to apply sun protection under the tape and reapply. After a day in the pool both girls showered and went to bed with the tape intact. Sunday was a total scorcher. Temperatures soared into the 90s and the humidity was very high. Again we spent most of the day swimming and at the end of the day after toweling off we saw the corners starting to peel.

When trying to find a great tape plugin, Waves audio has been a go-to for many engineers. They offer 2 affordably priced and widely used plugins - the J37 tape emulation and the Kramer tape emulation.

Starting from the left of the plugin we notice 3 tape formulas, the 888, 811, and 815. The 888 is the most aggressive in its distortion - with the 811 and 815 progressively becoming less distorted. Use the 888 from more lo-fi projects, and the 815 for a more subtle effect.

The speed can be switched between 7.5 inches per second and 15 inches per second. 7.5 is better for a warmer sound with attenuated highs, whereas 15 is better suited for a cleaner full-spectrum sound.

In the middle of the plugin are the input and output levels, which can be linked or controlled independently. Waves Audio recommends that your signal peaks around 0dBVU to get the best effect, so keep an eye on the meter below to achieve that.

Bias is to the right and ranges from +1.5dB, +3dB, and +5dB , which is an ultrasonic frequency used to reduce tape hysteresis. When it comes to a plugin, this function will subtly increase your high frequencies and can lead to some distortion at higher levels.

In the bottom left-hand corner, we have the modeled tracks section, which can be switched between the 2nd, 2nd plus 3rd, and the 3rd. Think of this kind of like a crossover effect in which the left and right channels bleed into one another.

Wow Rate and Depth control the amount of frequency modulation to the signal, in conjunction with the tape speed. Depth will control the amount of modulation and the rate will control the frequency range of the modulation.

Flux is an interesting feature, as it allows you to control how much of the signal is imparted onto the tape. If we were to compare this feature to the j37, this would be a lot like the Saturation rotary.

Like the J37, Kramer tape can introduce delay, but with simpler controls. The delay type can be switched between slap and feedback, and the delay time is affected in milliseconds without the option to sync the time to your BPM.

Stress Waves is two guys from Brisbane Australia Nick Williams: Vocals and Errol Hoffman: Synth, Guitar, Bass, Mixing. The music has a air of Manchester in its bloodstream with a bit of a 4AD sound to it for fans of sounds like Depeche Mode and 80's synth pop. We were all pretty excited when we heard it first on January the 1st 2014 it really felt like something special had landed in our inbox!
We have been playing the tracks since January and it was originally going to be the next record on ono tesla but it turned out to be more suitable for a tape release. The tape is going to be released in Australia too but with slightly different artwork and possibly a slightly different track list to the tracklist here . This release is a slow burner and will leave its shadowy hooks in your Psyche for longer than you may think.

50 copies only with riso inlays. We at Tesla HQ have some for sale, first come first serve.

When you play a cassette, the tape is run past a head that moves up and down from the charge on the tape. Just like a needle running over the etched sound waves on a vinyl record, the electromagnetic head of a cassette moves from the sound waves recorded on the tape. The movement of the receptor is translated into electromagnetic waves which are then sent to your speakers.

When you break it down, tapes and vinyl records basically use a similar playback technology, just done through a different medium. Tapes use a magnetically charged strip of cellophane run past an electromagnetic head for playback, while vinyl tapes literally scratch a needle over etchings in plastic. Tomato, tomahto.
