I don’t know if perfect reproduction necessarily sounds better. It’s probably subjective, but projects I’ve worked on that were tracked with tape have a quality that you can’t get from digital. I’m not talking about tape hiss or anything like that. There’s a roundness to the sound.

True! Analog can distort the audio in a way some people like.

But, it is a distortion. It's not there in the original audio. Sometimes, that is desired though.
