Thanks guys. Franco, I'm a little confused regarding your responses. What do you mean when you say that reel tape saturation can be set up for a simple ADT effect? It was my understanding that the suite specifically contains an ADT preset. What about it is simple, and most importantly how does it sound? I believe the sound of retro ADT is more than simply a short delay but has to do with fluctuations in the tape machines and subtle phasing or chorusing effects. I've got my bases covered to a degree getting a vintage sound otherwise but just want to know whether the rts ADT effect sounds like ADT...
