Strymon Deco Tape Saturation and Doubletracker Delay Pedal
$299.99
2″ TAPE TONE AND EFFECTS FOR YOUR PEDALBOARD
Even in the days of 2″ magnetic tape, achieving the characteristic odd-order harmonic saturation and old-school tape effects to your live sound was nearly impossible. Strymon’s Deco Tape Saturation & Doubletracker pedal not only makes these effects possible but also puts them on your pedalboard in an easy-to-access format. With the Deco, you can get the rich harmonics you crave, double your sound, and thicken it up further with natural detuning, or go even further with auto flanging, chorusing, or full-on tape delay. And, in true Strymon style, there are tons of adjustable parameters onboard the Deco, allowing you to dial in a wide range of fun and inspiring tones.
Press and hold the Doubletracker Bypass footswitch to achieve a recording studio-inspired through-zero flange effect.
This engages a “virtual audio engineer” manning the faders and tape reels to create a smooth and predictable through-zero flange experience on the fly.
After releasing the footswitch, the controls are smoothly returned to their previous settings.
Deco gives you the option for extremely wide stereo imaging to broaden and intensify the sound of your stereo rig.
Wide Stereo Mode sends the mono input (summed if using a stereo input) to the Left channel through the ‘Reference Deck’, and to the right channel via the delayed ‘Lag Deck’ to create an adjustable stereo spread.
The Blend control acts like a Pan control by adjusting the relative levels of the two tape decks
Input allows for the connection of either an expression pedal, external tap, or Favorite switch.
Plug in an expression pedal and control any one knob with your foot. Plug in an external tap to tap in your Lag Time.
Plug in a Favorite switch to save and recall a favorite preset.
Separate bypass footswitches allow you to bypass the Tape Saturation and Doubletracker individually.
Your Deco gives you two individual effects in one pedal
Add the dynamics and warmth of tape saturation to your recorded tracks.
Expand the sound of your synths, drums, and even vocals with the Doubletracker.
The optional Studio Mode feature tailors the Saturation range to be best suited for hotter input signals.
