Experience the dreamy sound of a classic ‘60s single head tape echo, complete with the harmonic richness of the accompanying tube preamp. Initially inspired by our long history of research into tape-based echo designs, we brought it to the next level after the recent acquisition of a pristine tube-based unit that was extensively modified by one of the most storied gear techs of the last fifty years. The result is the most inspiring tape echo ever crammed into a small form factor, positively brimming with the gooey magic that only tape-based manipulations and imperfections can create. Features • Impressive power and flexibility in a small and elegant form factor. • Two authentic preamp voicing options reproduced through meticulous tube modeling techniques. • Our proprietary dTape system, developed for El Capistan, allows precise replication of tape echo characteristics such as tape condition, capstan slippage, the mechanical effects of motors and more. • Record Level feature provides three unique and tailored tape saturation settings at the flip of a switch. • Mechanics reproduces motor and mechanical component fluctuations, allowing for truly gorgeous, organic stereo modulation effects unlike anything you’ve ever heard. • Discrete stereo operation for independent processing of the left and right inputs. • Mono-to-Mono, Mono-to-Stereo and Stereo-to-Stereo back panel switch. • True Stereo In and Out via TRS jacks to make connections easy. • Full MIDI integration: save up to
