Strymon EC-1 Single Head dTape Echo Delay Pdal

Timeless Classic Reborn

Experience the dreamy sound of a classic ‘60s single head tape echo, complete with the harmonic richness of the accompanying tube preamp. Initially inspired by our long history of research into tape-based echo designs, they brought it to the next level after the recent acquisition of a pristine tube-based unit that was extensively modified by one of the most storied gear techs of the last fifty years. The result is the most inspiring tape echo ever crammed into a small form factor, positively brimming with the gooey magic that only tape-based manipulations and imperfections can create.


Features:

• Impressive power and flexibility in a small and elegant form factor.
• Two authentic preamp voicing options reproduced through meticulous tube modeling techniques.
• Our proprietary dTape system, developed for El Capistan, allows precise replication of tape echo
characteristics such as tape condition, capstan slippage, the mechanical effects of motors and more.
• Record Level feature provides three unique and tailored tape saturation settings at the flip of a switch.
• Mechanics reproduces motor and mechanical component fluctuations, allowing for truly gorgeous,
organic stereo modulation effects unlike anything you’ve ever heard.
