Product Description

The Strymon Deco Tape Saturation and Doubletracker pedal!   contact-to-order

The Deco from Strymon gives you the warmth of tape saturation with a huge range of beautiful tape enveloping sounds. The Tape Saturation side smooths out your sound with tape compression while fattening your tone with a transparent tape driven overdrive as you turn up the Saturation knob. The Doubletracker Side will bring you back to the early days of recording when tape machines were used to obtain classic tape echo, doubletrack chorusing, and tape flanging. With the Deco you can even add random modulations with the Wobble control moving from subtle to extreme undulations.

Two Effects in One.

Strymon Deca saturation

Tape Saturation

Give your sound the smooth and warm qualities of analog tape, along with the enhanced touch sensitivity and playing dynamics that are intrinsic to the inner workings of tape machines. Achieve incredible transparency at low levels, with reduced high frequency spikes and a harmonically rich low end. Turn up the Saturation to increase the amount of tape drive, dynamic compression and distortion.

Dual Tracker

Deco is perfectly suited for a last-in-chain, “always on” sweetening effect. Everything sounds better on tape. Want to push the limits of tape beyond what was originally possible? Use Deco as a tape-style transparent overdrive—crank the Saturation all the way up to “peg the meters” and gently overload the machine’s input.
Go back to the early days of recording studios, where a few creative audio engineers discovered a new world of augmented sound by pushing the limits of studio tape machines. By inventing automatic doubletracking, they introduced echo, flanging, and chorus to the world of recorded music.

Strymon Deca lagtime

Intensify and widen your sound with Deco’s Doubletracker controls. Turn the Lag Time to obtain classic slapback tape echo, spacious doubletrack chorusing, and mind-bending tape flanging. Add random modulation with the Wobble control and go from very subtle movement to more extreme undulations—just like having a recording engineer vary the speed of the machine.
