If y'all haven't seen this yet: www.strymon.net/product/echo-plugin-bundle/I'm excited about this - I've owned both of these pedals (still own the DIG...) for a long time, and to this day they really are excellent. I have to think about the workflow and how I would use them in a studio context, but man, they sound great. Also pretty dang affordable if you get them as a bundle. |

Strymon makes great stuff but they are a hardware company first and software company second.

No idea but they’ve barely updated their flagship big sky plugin and then updated the pedal with updated algorithms the plugin doesn’t have |

No idea but they’ve barely updated their flagship big sky plugin and then updated the pedal with updated algorithms the plugin doesn’t have unless i'm stoned, the plugin utilizes algorithms? I use the Strymon Nightsky and the Merris Mercury X(beast) for my reverb units here more than anything else, they sound absurdly good, i do not own a bricasti to compare it to but to my knowledge that's probably about all that beats it in the hardware world at this point, yes guitar pedals are my go to reverbs in the studio |

I mean, yeah? The pedals basically are plug-ins.

I mean, yeah? The pedals basically are plug-ins. Yeah even runs on sharc chips like UAD and the Weiss hardware. No weird digital distortions in this like the old lexicon and alesis sounds. They’re floating point. Strymon and modern eventide throw in some fast, cleanish converters though to be part of guitar rigs instead of an aes/spdif chipset for pure digital I/o so people complain that they’re not exactly the same because it’s passing through converters worse than what’s in every non entry level interface. Even for the Weiss plugs, people still complain because Softube doesn’t let them truncate the sends to it and hard clip the send back by turning off the limiter. |

More settings are usable. I wouldn’t mind them charging a little more and putting balanced XLR or digital outs. |
