Tape delay with the Strymon El Capistan

52.33Most processing in MatingCall was applied in the box, but the Strymon El Capistan hardware tape delay brings analogue authenticity.

Daniël: “Next to all the percussion that we bought, we also bought a Strymon tape delay.”

Hans: “It’s a guitar effect, but you can use it on synths really easily. You have a knob to twist, you know, like a hands-on feel. It’s really fun to use. We’ve done some DJ sets with live keys, just as a precursor to doing the live set – we bring this with us and we can do lots of nice little effects. It’s so hands-on. In the studio, it’s really great for this wonky, spacey feel.”
