In the value field type a new value of 0.25:<br />

This is how the QuickConst should look now <strong>in</strong> the structure:<br />

Let’s expla<strong>in</strong> what we have just done. The port on the left side of the <strong>in</strong>put<br />

module specifies a so-called default signal. That means that if the <strong>in</strong>put is<br />

not connected (on the outside of the macro), the default signal will be taken<br />

as the <strong>in</strong>put source. In our case, if the T <strong>in</strong>put of the Tape Delay macro is not<br />

connected on the outside, it will behave as if you have connected a constant<br />

value of 0.25 to it.<br />

Of course, a connection to the QuickConst is not the only possible connection<br />

for the default signal <strong>in</strong>put. You can connect it to any other module <strong>in</strong> the<br />

structure, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g other <strong>in</strong>put modules.<br />

Now that we have saturation and a default value for the T <strong>in</strong>put, let’s emulate<br />

a tape flutter effect. A simple way to do that is to modulate the delay time<br />

with an LFO. You could experiment with different LFO shapes for better flutter<br />

effect, but for now, just take one from the library: Standard Macro > LFO<br />

> Par LFO:<br />
