DEMO Outskirts Echo Transmission Array- 1776 Multiplex Echo Machine+ modulation+ Rub-a-Dub reverb

[Big Monk]

Now that I think more about it, the 1776 Multiplex was how I found out about the El-Cap.

I had been on a hiatus from guitar stuff for almost 6 years and when I got back into playing and wanting to build again, I found the Multiplex in my search for a DIY tape echo sim.

Further research led me to some TGP posts of people talking about how the El-Cap did all the same stuff and more. I obviously had missed the whole ascendency of Strymon in my absence from guitar stuff and had no clue what they were all about other than expensive.

Fast forward a few years and bam…

This build made me realize the Hydra probably isn't for me. I have little to no use for multi head rhythmic delays. I'll probably still build it anyway though

What about the bbbbbouncing ball?

Hmm yeah that ain't it

I haven’t gotten to build the Hydra yet, but the Binson setting on the multiplex is my least used setting. Space echo setting, on the other hand…

I mean that's why I built it was for the space echo setting. I already knew I don't really like the EP-3 thing. I did already waste my money on a belle epoch deluxe after all

When I think Binson, I typically think of Gilmour in the fixed head setting. I don’t really use the multihead setting on the El-Cap.

I don't really either but I just really like the sound of the thing at any setting. It's also nice to have those wonky settings for experimenting.

Great build, swish looks, fab demo! The good stuff, Will!

Great Build! I love the look of it!

I think a Space Echo with 2 2399s wouldn't be that cool. The beauty of the Sagen delay and the Hydra are using weird combinations of heads like 1,3 or 2,3 to get waltz-y type rhythms.
