The HEDD sounds great. But think of it as a stellar sounding converter box with some extra sweetening options, not the other way around.

If you want to get an idea of what the tape process sounds like, download the demo for the Phoenix plugin from Cranesong and get to know it a little. It's not exactly the same as the HEDD (not better or worse) but it's in the same ballpark. Great plugin btw.

I've never heard a plugin or combination thereof that sounds like a real tape delay fwiw. The Fulltone Tube Tape Echo knocks the socks off of anything I've ever tried.
