VTAPE is a set of three plugins based on a thorough simulation of the famous sound of analog tape machines. VTAPE Saturator simulates the recording and playback on an analog tape mastering machine. VTAPE Delay combines this sound with a modern, step sequencer-like tapped delay engine which leads the tradition of the tape echo machines into the 21st century. VTAPE Flanger simulates the legendary “Tape flanging” effect which can be achieved through the playback of two tape machines running at slightly different speed.

VTAPE是基于对著名的模拟磁带机声音的彻底模拟的一组三个插件。VTAPE饱和器模拟在模拟磁带母盘机上的录音和回放。VTAPE-Delay将这种声音与一种现代的、类似步进序列器的抽头延迟引擎相结合，将磁带回音机的传统带入21世纪。VTAPE Flanger模拟了传说中的“磁带翻边”效果，可以通过播放两台运行速度略有不同的磁带机来实现。

Why and How ?

为什么和怎么做？

Why bothering about going back to analogue tape recording knowing that todays digital audio recording is undoubtly more precise in reproducing the original sound ?

既然知道当今的数字录音无疑更精确地再现了原始声音，为什么还要再回到模拟磁带录音呢？

Perhaps you already guessed the answer: it′s the imperfection and the technical deficiencies which can add something wonderful to the sound if properly used.

也许你已经猜到了答案：它′不完美和技术上的缺陷，如果使用得当，会给声音增添美妙的东西。

Most emulations of the `tape sound′ focus on the saturation characteristic alone and underestimate the effect of a subtle amount of `flutter′ - high frequency fluctuations of the tape speed. This adds something which is probably the most important part of the special sound: The harmonic lines are "widened" by the effect of frequency modulation due to flutter which causes a 'thickening' of the audio signal contributing to the fat sound of analog, compared to the more accurate, but thin sound of digital. This effect called `Modulation noise′ makes it easier to mix tracks together by removing the static character especially of electric/electronic sounds. It′s interesting to know that many natural instruments have a "built-in" flutter effect which strongly contributes to their sound.

大多数模拟磁带声音′ 只关注饱和特性，而低估了轻微颤振的影响′ - 磁带速度的高频波动。这增加了一些可能是特殊声音中最重要的部分：由于颤振导致音频信号“加厚”而产生的频率调制效应“加宽”了谐波线，从而产生了模拟的胖声音，而数字的声音更精确，但更细。这种效应称为调制噪声′ 通过去除静态特征，特别是电气/电子声音，使曲目更容易混合在一起。它′有趣的是，许多天然乐器都有一种“内置”颤振效应，这种颤振效应对乐器的声音有很大的影响。

The distortion and compression effects due to the saturation characteristic of magnetic recording depend on the input signal level. With normal recording levels the distortion is around 1% which is away from sounding really distorted but quite audible and adds a pleasant color to the sound. Higher values should only be used as special effect on some suitable tracks dependant on the style of music you′re after.

磁记录饱和特性引起的失真和压缩效应取决于输入信号电平。正常录音水平的失真是1%左右，这是远离听起来真的失真，但相当可听，并增加了一个愉快的色彩的声音。更高的值只能作为特殊效果在某些合适的曲目上使用，具体取决于您所选择的音乐风格′我们在后面。

The saturation is also responsible for the `instant compression′ effect which causes transient signals to be reduced in level. In contrast to a dedicated compressor this one is working with instant attack/release and therefore avoiding the typical pumping artefacts.

饱和度也是造成“即时压缩”的原因′ 使瞬态信号电平降低的效应。与专用压缩机不同的是，这种压缩机的工作方式是瞬间攻击/释放，因此避免了典型的泵送伪影。
