Abrégé

A system, device, and method for recording audio with the character and sonic benefits of a genuine analog recording is disclosed More specifically, an electro¬ mechanical-software controlled closed loop analog signal processor ("CLASP") system which is comprised of a CLASP unit containing firmware, a latency detection module, and CLASP hardware display and controls. The CLASP system further comprises CLASP software operably running on a digital audio workstation ("DAW") which is also in operable communication with the CLASP unit The CLASP unit is also in operable communication with an analog recordable medium An analog audio signal is recorded on the analog recordable medium, which may consist of a coated tape, cup, cylinder, drum, or disk, and then immediately played back and routed to the DAW via an analog to digital converter, thus providing for digitally recorded analog audio. The CLASP system may also include converters and a mixing console.
