Pete!

I can't wait to get mine...I ordered one last week when they were available again.
All the clips I have heard have been brilliant.

EDIT:

Have you tried their Brigadier delay?
Right now 2 of my 'go-to' delays pedals are my Ehx Memory Man and SIB Echodrive...just wondering how the Brigadier would stack up.

Great sounding demo, Pete. I wish I could get delay tones like that from my G-Major.

 

[TrentBizzle]

That third selection sounds very much like late 80's/90's Rush...Awesome!

 

[jet66]

That sounds great! I really like this and their reverb, some really sweet sounding gear.

Nice - I finally got a chance to play with mine. I have been running it in the loop of my Brown Note D'lite 22 and it sounds phenomenal. I haven't even scratched the surface of what is capable of yet, but I love the way it sounds - definitely beats the Replex I used to own...

I never thought i would NEED a $300 delay pedal... but i think I do now

 

[ejecta]

I'm going to have to get one of these.

That sounds awesome! I just picked up a Timeline today so I'm going to keep my eye on these el capistan clips to see how they compare. Sounds so good I might have to make the switch

Nice demo I heard nothing but craze for these. I'm tempted I heard they go quick when available.

Wow, that demo sounds AWESOME. I'm getting my El Capistan tomorrow, can't wait.

The Strymon/Damage Control guys have my Timeline so I'll get to compare the Cappy to the Timeline when i get it back. Might be worth keep both since the Timeline has a nice looper, dotted 8th, reverse, plus presets and MIDI.

Excellent as always Pete.
My favorite was the 3rd clip because it sounded like you somehow got David Gilmour and The Edge to make a baby.
You are a company dream for endorsements because you know exactly how to musically use the products instead of just showing what the pedal can do with a few presets.
Nice job, and Strymon should be happy they sent you one.

Lot of talk on Strymon lately. I'm thinking of picking up one of their reverb units soon. This pedal is temping me too.

Did you use the pedal into the input of the amp for all those examples instead of the loop?

Nice work on the demo.

That certainly does sound good. I was thinking similar thoughts.

Wow ! I think my search for a delay may be over !
