Checkmate,

Yup best thing is to try it, see what your ears tell ya about the differences...
some engineers I know actually prefer digital, others of us prefer the analog tape.

So if you have the chance, rent some studio time to maybe put together a simple demo recording of one song using a tape machine and see what you think.
Recording bass guitar and drum sounds will reveal the most difference in character between digital and analog tape.
