got my deco today....

wholey fucking shit.

incredible. Saturation is tits. easily can take the place of a low gain OD pedal. The flange is killer, chorus killer - very organic sounding. 0-thru flanging is mind warping.

this is after maybe 10 minutes of play time.

love the pants of this little fucker! :love: :love: :love: :love:

I concur. I'd still like to believe there is some redeeming weirdness in this box. It will take an ILFer to prove that true, though.

Exactly. I had a whole idea for an ADT pedal based on the Beatles effects including double-tracking, echo, flange, phase, and then an effect loop so you could add effects in the echoes and stuff. But looks like Strymon did it with the added "bonus" of tape saturation.

I'm still watching videos and reading about it but this looks reeeeeeallly cool.

Foxrox tzf, any delay I own, and any overdrive really (id use the Elements)

Good points here too. I have the Mr. Black Tunnelworm, Fairfield Meet Maude, and the Elements, and could probably pull that stuff off pretty well anyway. I also record with tape anyway.

I think as a mixing thing it would be really cool. I wouldn't use it live for any purpose at all, but the combination of all this stuff would be great for an effects loop in a mixer.

still really digging mine. don't throw tomatoes because I haven't done a demo! Life, ya dig...living the dream, paying the bills.

mine had to go back to strymon for an update, actually...left last Monday, got it back on Friday. They added a "studio mode" to it as well as extending the saturation section for people with low output pickups (read: me)

personally I really dig this pedal...and ....i'll do a goddamn demo!

^^exactly! makes it where you can power it up in that mode...or guitar mode....

here's a crappy video. Crappy for sound really. The mic squashed the hell out the audio. But you'll just have to trust me this thing is cock toast!
