Ahhh I get it now, you set the input in I/O and that also goes through to the tape track. That makes a lot of sense actually.
Didn’t play with it for long so not sure how the input effects and tape effects interact but it will be fun to explore.
Thanks so much for clarifying @Mistercharlie
I do hope I can still sequence external gear from track 14, got quite a few songs relying on that!
