New ⭐ Empire Guitars Strymon El Capistan DTape Echo *Free Shipping In The US* Effects 👏

Magnetic Monster.

When we decided to develop an effects pedal that delivers the sound
and feel of our favorite tape echo machines, we knew we must
relentlessly study and faithfully recreate every last nuance. We spent
months in the Strymon sound design labs with an intense focus on
capturing the warm, saturated, distinctive qualities of tape echo
machines. The result is our hand crafted . Utilizing a ridiculously powerful SHARC DSP, every drop of processing power is harnessed.

El Capistan provides three different tape machine types in one, each
with three unique modes. With ten parameters to tweak, you get extensive
control over tape quality, machine health and tone shaping. Go from the
sound of a pristine, studio-quality tape machine to the heavily
fluctuating sound of a machine in need of service. Get the full bodied
sound of fresh tape all the way to the gnarled qualities of worn out
tape. Because it’s DSP driven, you get a range of tape experiences
unattainable with a traditional tape machine. All of this without the
headaches of tape machine maintenance and repair!
