I have a Strymon problem

[spirit7]

Just picked up a Lex rotary, taking my tally to the following:

- Lex (rotary)
- Ola (chorus)
- Timeline (delay)
- El Capistan (tape echo - my personal favourite)
- Bluesky (reverb)
- Flint (tremolo and 80s-style reverb)

Can anyone recommend a cure?

Well, you can get the Mobius and sell the Ola.

There's no point - I have a Red Witch Moon Phaser, the Ola and now the Lex so my modulation needs are covered!

I'd say this is your best bet. Love my El Cap!

^ +1 - the El Capistan is an amazing device!

For clean tones, it's by far and away the most beautiful sounding pedal I've ever heard.

Congrats! I love my El Cap and have been considering either the Lex or Flint...let me know your thoughts on those two

The Flint is fantastically versatile. Great reverb, which you can set to 60s, 70s or 80s style (I have it set to a lush, 80s reverb with a long tail and use the Bluesky for (a) more subtle reverb and (b) infinite reverb). The trem is second to none.

Will let you know about the Lex as and when it arrives but I am fully expecting it to deliver Gilmour tone in spades.

Have to use the cowbell logic on this one, the only cure is more Strymon

I hear you though, they put out the best stuff. TGP actually got this one right. I'm looking to get a Mobius soon.

You need to quit cold turkey. Just go ahead and give me all the Strymon stuff. I'll be your sponsor. We can get you through this together.

Thanks so much, I knew there'd be an altruist like you out there somewhere!

Mobius FTW!

Nah, you need the Mobius. I'm betting it will cover the Red Witch Moon Phaser at least 95% of the way. PLus, everyone on TGP is saying the Mobius can cover the Hartman Flanger and that's THE Flanger to get if you want those Andy Summer's chorus sounds. Those sounds are digi-jam approved.

I have the Lex and the El capistan..
Awesome pedals..
I tried just about every leslie type pedal out there and this is hand down the best..

 

[Ventura]

This isn't the first time I've witnessed this pattern. There's a reason I've avoided the Strymon stuff to date. I know I'd be in - hook, line and sinker.

Get 'em all, FTW!!

Timeline and Mobius covers just 'bout everything. I got a KoKo boost, tuner, ISP, and a expression pedal to round it out. I'm gonna add a midi control soon then it's FTWF's!
