Strymon has expanded its range of delay pedals with the EC-1, a state-of-the-art digital stompbox that recreates the vintage mojo of a tube-driven tape echo unit.
The EC-1 is based on a vintage Echoplex EP-2. That, in and of itself, is a selling point. There is something undeniably musical about the repeats from those old mechanical units; having that sound on your pedalboard, in a stompbox format that is not mechanical and doesn’t break down and need servicing every couple of months.
