That free running emulated "short" can get irritating after a while. That said, it's always at about -24 db to -35 db, and audible no higher. I usually "tune it out" using Reason's mixer gate, though it also decreases the volume of the tape hiss a bit.

True story: the first time I heard it, I thought I had a mosquito flying around in my studio LOL!
