Strymon DIG Dual Digital Delay per chitarra/tastiera

Descrizione

The Strymon DIG is not just any digital effects pedal. The pink pedal houses two separate delay engines divided into a master and a companion delay. It has all the controls you would normally expect like time (1-2), mix (1-2), and repeats. Tap tempo and modulation functions are also present. With the second time control, you can determine the time signature of the delays. What makes this Stryman DIG so special, however, are the three delay types and all the extra functions. The videos will give you a good idea of what the Strymon DIG can do.

Delay types

While many digital delay pedals these days are trying to recreate the warmth of analogue delay, the Strymon DIG is following its own more radical path. It has the high-quality 24-bit delay that's expected nowadays, and gives you access to two classic digital delay types. Adaptive Delta modulation is based on the stereo rack delays from the '80s. These clean delays can be distinguished from thousands of others and take you back to the days when MTV was still a music channel. There is also a 12-bit delay that has an unmistakable retro vibe, perfectly suited for use with vintage synthesizers. The Strymon DIG opens musical doors that have been closed, unless you had an expensive vintage '80s delay in your possession.

Functions up close

With the Mod switch you can choose between light or heavy modulation, both in high quality, of course. With the Time 2 control, you can choose from different time signatures, namely triplets, eighth notes, dotted eighths, and dotted quarters. With the golden ratio, mutual delays overlap for an ambient sound. Apart from the visible functions, the pedal also offers a few hidden possibilities. It is possible to run both delays in parallel so that each engine sends out its own signal (in stereo mode). By holding the tap tempo, you can record a loop and play it back later.
