Strymon El Capistan | Reviews and Reputation
At first glance, it seems difficult to use because of the many knobs and switches, but you can create sounds intuitively. Anyway, I want you to listen to the sound. Delay/echo lovers will definitely be hooked after just one listen. It's also great that the sound doesn't become harsh even when it's ON. You can choose to turn the buffer ON/OFF when it's OFF. I use it with the buffer turned ON because the sound is so good. The downside is that it consumes a lot of current, so you need to use an AC adapter for this model or a large capacity power supply. I use Voodoo Lab's pedal power.

A delay that will last a lifetime.
It goes great with Strymon's organic chorus. It also goes well with other effects.
It has a wide variety of effects and is suitable for any genre, and I would definitely recommend trying out the hidden spring reverb function.
