Strymon Brigadier Analog Delay Pedal
Destroying the Analog / Digital Divide
Brigadier harnesses the full power of a SHARC DSP dedicated exclusively to delivering the most authentic analog bucket brigade delay sound imaginable. Using our hand-crafted, processor-intensive dBucket algorithm, Brigadier recreates every nuance and sonic complexity of vintage analog bucket brigade chips and their clock drivers. No detail is overlooked.
Experience all the warmth and character of classic analog delay — from pristine, clean repeats to saturated, noisy textures — with full control over your tone. The exclusive Bucket Loss control lets you dial in the amount of signal degradation per delay stage, recreating everything from smooth echoes to gritty, vintage-style repeats.
