Add the Strymon El Capistan dTape V2 to your tool kit and harness the real-deal sound, feel, and functionality of analog tape for yourself!A trio of classic tape machine emulations Rather than emulating specific tape delay models, the El Capistan emulates three classic tape machine technologies, providing you with your choice of a single fixed-head and variable-speed motor, multiple heads and a variable-speed motor, or a sliding head and a fixed-speed motor. There are also three modes for each machine type, which let you switch delay time ranges, select active tape heads, and access sound-on-sound looping. When you add in the El Capistan's parameter controls, you get the kind of sonic flexibility Sweetwater tone tweakers love, allowing you to dial in vintage sounds like Echoplex or Space Echo emulations or come up with entirely new analog delay sounds.Easy access to handy secondary functions The El Capistan V2 boasts six knobs with access to an additional four secondary functions, solidifying this pedal as one of the most tweakable delays to hit the market. On the surface, the Time, Mix, Tape Age, Repeats, Wow & Flutter, and Spring controls make it easy to dial in a full range of echo effects and character. Depress both footswitches, and you can access a deeper layer of parameters, including Tape Crinkle, Tape Bias, Low-end Contour, and a +/- 3dB Boost/Cut function. Cooler still, you can hook up a footswitch to instantly recall your favorite settings, and when you plug in an expression pedal, you can take over any parameter on the fly.Under-the-hood improvements provide unparalleled performance While the cosmetic and sonic improvements are easily seen, further inspection of the El Capistan V2 reveals several changes to its core for an even more premium playing experience. To start, Strymon loaded the El Capistan with a top-quality JFET input circuit. The result? Enhanced responsiveness, dynamics, and tailor-made feel for gigging performers and touring pros. Swapping between mono and stereo modes is as easy as flicking a rear-panel switch, with the option to now control the El Capistan via an expression pedal or MultiSwitch Plus. Perhaps best of all, a new ARM DSP chip significantly increases processing power while decreasing energy consumption for a clearer and more accurate tone.Strymon El Capistan dTape Echo Pedal V2 Features: Powerful tape echo emulation pedal lets you craft a wide range of classic delay effects Choose from 3 tape machine styles: Fixed, Multi, and Single, each with 3 operation modes Get extra creative with the onboard sound-on-sound tape looper Shape your effect with 6 accessible knobs and 4 secondary functions; secondary functions accessed by depressing both switches Spring knob dials in varying levels of reverb with ease Take control of any parameter via any standard expression pedal Connect a footswitch to instantly recall your favorite preset JFET input circuit enhances responsiveness, dynamics, and feel Swap from mono to stereo and back via the rear-panel switch ARM DSP chip significantly increases processing power Durable aluminum chassis Choose between true bypass and trails operation SpecificationDetail Pedal Type Tape Echo Analog/Digital Digital Effects Fixed Head, Multi Head, Single Head, Spring Reverb Max Delay Time 1500ms Looping Time 20 seconds Tap Tempo Yes Inputs 1 x 1/4" (mono/stereo) Outputs 2 x 1/4" MIDI I/O In/USB Other I/O 1 x 1/4" TRS (expression/MIDI) USB 1 x USB-C True Bypass Yes, switchable to Buffered Power Source 9V DC 300mA power supply (included) Height 1.75" Width 4" Depth 4.5" RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
