Effect pedal with authentic tape echo sound

With the Strymon El Capistan V2 dTape Echo, the Californian effect tinkerers present the next generation of their highly sought-after "Digital Tape Echo" effect pedal, which not only simulates classic tape echo sounds and the typical peculiarities of analogue technology with unsurpassed detail, but also comes up with extended setting options and full MIDI support. While the analogue Class A JFET preamp promises an unadulterated output of the clean input signal, the powerful ARM processor in the center of the circuitry ensures top-class echoes in studio quality, no matter or crisp slap-back setting or experimental delay landscape.

Three different sounds

At the heart of Strymon's El Capistan V2, three different simulations of echoing tape recorders, each ready in three flavours, provide a particularly diverse range of timbres, from crisp slap-back echoes to epic delay lines to an experimental ambient experience. The "Fixed" setting controls the Delay-Zeit via the speed of the simulated tape, with recording heads mounted at fixed intervals causing the echoes to sound at specific intervals. The "Multi Head" setting, on the other hand, makes the echoes appear in a certain rhythm by using several simulated recording heads. Last but not least, the "Single" setting varies the Delay-Zeit by placing the simulated pickup at a constant tape speed.

Precise adjustment options

In order to be able to precisely adjust the sound character, Strymon equips the El Capistan V2 dTape Echo with extensive control options. While the Time and Repeats control to influence the Delay-Zeit and the number of echoes, as usual, the "Tape Age" and "Wow & Flutter" controls can be used to add the tape age and the synchronization fluctuations to get as close as possible to the authentic tape echo sound. In addition to the Mix control, which determines the ratio of effect to Clean-Sound, the Spring control allows you to add a harmonic spring reverb effect.
