Inspiration Machine.

When we decided to create a studio-class stereo delay effects pedal, we knew we must go well beyond what has been done in the past—in sound quality, sonic flexibility, hardware design, and processing power. We spent months locked up in the Strymon sound design labs with an intense focus on dreaming up the most spacious, lush, creative, and tweakable delay effects ever heard. It was a monumental task—a relentless study of delays and their nuances, and a continuous pursuit of innovative and musically inspirational sounds. Utilizing a ridiculously powerful SHARC DSP, every drop of processing power is harnessed. Each algorithm is so detailed it requires the entire processor.

TimeLine provides you with twelve different delay machines, each with extensive control over sonic character and feel. Tweak to your hearts content and save up to 200 presets of your favorite sounds. Go from crisp and clear, studio-quality digital delays all the way to the saturated and fluctuating sounds of tape delay machines. Get warm and fuzzy analog style repeats all the way to shimmery, sparkling, and crystalline ice delays. Top it all off with full MIDI implementation and a routable, 30-second stereo looper and you’re on your way to delay bliss.

Sound Design

• Hand crafted, studio-class delay algorithms deliver meticulous, detailed and nuanced delay experiences
• Twelve delay machines to choose from: Digital, Dual, Pattern, Reverse, Ice, Duck, Swell, Trem, Filter, Lo-fi, dTape™, dBucket™.
• Seven front-panel tone shaping knobs: Time, Repeats, Mix, Filter, Grit, Mod Speed, Mod Depth
• Additional menu-driven parameters deliver extremely flexible tone shaping options and complete tweakability
• 200 easily accessible and nameable presets, save and recall at the press of a switch

Hardware

• Three rugged metal footswitches for preset selection, effect bypass, looper control, and Tap Tempo
• LED display for preset info, BPM/time readout, and extended parameter control
• Full MIDI implementation allows extended control for those with more complex rigs
• 30-second stereo Looper, routable pre- or post-delay, with MIDI capability.

Ins & Outs
