Editing Automatic double tracking (section)

==Arrival of digital technology==
With the advent of [[digital recording]], tape- and analogue-based delay methods have not been much used, though many of these analogue techniques are frequently emulated using comparable digital techniques, or in some cases [[plug-in (computing)|plugins]] which are used to extend the capabilities of a [[digital audio workstation]]. Some musicians and engineers may casually use the term ADT to refer to any form of simulated double tracking, including digital delay used in this manner.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Bigwood |first1=Robin |title=Easy As A-D-T |url=https://www.soundonsound.com/techniques/easy-d-t |website=www.soundonsound.com |date=14 September 2014}}</ref> One of the very few examples of the original ADT technique being used in recent times is on the Beatles' ''[[The Beatles Anthology|Anthology]]'' albums from the mid-1990s, on which George Martin and [[Geoff Emerick]] decided to revive the analogue technique rather than simply use the modern digital alternatives to achieve a more authentic sound, feeling that ADT produced a warmer, less synthetic sound than digital delay and the latter would be inappropriate for use on recordings made on analogue equipment in the 1960s.
