The Strymon Magneto is a four-head digital tape echo from Strymon (Westlake Village, California), modeling a four-head tape echo machine with independent delay times and volumes for each head for complex polyrhythmic echo effects. The Magneto captures the character of vintage four-head tape echo machines with Strymon engineering for detailed tape echo emulation.
The Wampler Metaverse is a flagship multi-delay pedal from Wampler Pedals (Indianapolis, Indiana), offering multiple delay algorithm modes including Analog, BBD, Tape, Echo-Space, Faux Tape Echo, and Digital (modeled on the TC Electronic 2290) in a mid-size DSP platform with MIDI control, tap tempo, and preset storage. Designed as a comprehensive delay workstation for players needing multiple delay voices in one pedal.
