i don't know why i'm watching this! i've been losing sleep for the last month over my decision between the volante and the El cap, and now i also want the brigadier!
@@benjaminjacob6716 Haha! i decided to go for the Volante simply because one showed up used but in new condition for 230 (and the el cap goes for around 200 used). One thing i will say i hardly ever touch the left hand side of the Volante pedal. Once i have the pre vol set and wear then theres no need to. The "mechanics" can be a bit unnecessary for 99% of delay situation (for me anyway) and the low cut is a nice addition. i don't see much difference between the types of tape delay either so in reality i probably should have got the el cap for tone, but just got a bit lucky with the price of an opened new Volante (i knew i could sell it on for more than what i bought it for). Go for the El Cap, or if you are anything like me and wont be happy till you get the apparently best try a Volante but check the used market. i personally knew El cap was more for me but got greedy. Hope this helps!
I got one recently -- thanks to Antoine's previous video -- and it's great, nicely complementing the El Cap and others. The long delay and modulation are real attractions, and you can get one used for around $200.
I had both the volante and the el cap and kept the volante. You can get it to make those warm sounds if you mess with the rec level and other controls.
Great video! Best comparison I've seen and one that brings out the great features of all the pedals. It will be a time saver for many looking to make a decision. Wish I had it a few months back before I got my Volante. Not that I would have bought something else, but it would have saved me days if not weeks. I ended up buying the Volante as I found it to be the most "historically rich" peddal of them all mixed in with some modern features like midi and expression peddal support. For me it's the best mix between present and past. I find the Volante brings back features lost in time. Those features from the old tape and drum units that would be lost in the more compact and reliable units to come. Features such as the low fidelity of the drum delay and the multiple heads of the early magnetic units. The Volante can go from low fidelity drum to hifi studio tape. Mechanical wear can be simulated and the spacing knob is just a killer feature that allows head spacing to be adjusted for infinite rhythmic options. Oh and the record heads can be panned individually left or right and that just makes for a killer effect. It blew everything else right out of the water when I heard it and you should really include that in your video. It's worth the trouble of a stereo path and recording. That being said I'd like to point out that the Volante has 300 presets. Eight can be accessed through the buttons and the rest through MIDI. The support for MIDI opens a world of opportunities in regards to configuration on stage.
yeah I actually bought the El Capistan today just because of you! Better video explaining what you get with these delay pedals doesn't exist on UA-cam. Have a great summer :D
I do agree with you, Antoine, on the learning curve of the Timeline. I bought one within the last couple months. It is slightly frustrating to grasp, but once you get it, it’s fine. I just find that for the ambient stuff that I play regularly, the Timeline (due to sounds and presets) is worth the investment. At $450 USD, it is exactly that: an investment.
Great comparison/demo.... To my ears, the El Capistan sounds the richest and most interesting delay.. I've got two of them plus the DIG and Volante...Strymon make superb delays....
Thank you for a great comparison! I’ve used the timeline since it was released… It does everything I need and a lot more. The presets are a winner. There are only a couple of pedals which compete well with the timeline. Thanks again for a great review!
Had the Brigadier & Dig at one point. Sold the Dig to get a Boss DD500, and kept the Brigadier which causes lust and envy from my guitar buddies. It’s such an underrated pedal that has so much life on the repeats. One of my favourite settings makes it sound like a pad underneath my guitar tone!
Do you find you use one or the other more? I'm weighing up getting Timeline to cover "everything" or just getting the sound I love the most - the El Cap.
Man I have the timeline because I need the reverse and digital delays but the el cap I can’t quite match. I did match my boss Waza bucket completely as well my boss digital but the el cap I miss something even using the flint spring. That said I really need the variety of the timeline and the ability to save patches and set bpms . If money wasn’t an issue I would have kept the el cap and the Avalanche Run but I gotta sell anything I don’t have on my board and the timeline is the best all around that I’ve encountered. I had the new line 6 Dl4 and returned it within a week.
I debated between the El Cap and the Volante for a while. Ended up with the Volante because of the looper, but honestly I feel as though it's complete overkill as I literally use it for slapback and looping, with guitar and nothing else! That being said, it's only £100 more than the El Cap and to me does a hell of a lot more (fleshed out looper, 2 more delay types, infinitely more rhythmic possibilites, built in favourite switch). I use software delays everywhere when recording, so it will be fun to put it through it's paces in a recording environment, especially with drums.
What a great lesson Antoine! Thanks for sharing all of that information on each of these pedals. There really are a lot of different choices and they are all good depending on what style of music you play. Great tips by the Master of Ambient Guitar!!!
Great review!! Well done explaining differences. Crazy how one could be happy owning just one or all of them and not feel like they overlap each other. Use to Iove reverb the most, but found out I love delay more. Can never have enough!!!
Thanks for this. I recently bought the DIG, and I love it, but really interested in the El Capistan...just a great sound. Great demo of these fine pedals.
Thanks for the comparison! This helped me a lot in deciding what to get. I play keys and synths so I mights go with Timline or Volante. I like DIG the best out of the smaller pedals.
This video really drives home how much better the small boxes sound than the Timeline, at least to my ear. And then, other than the reverse mode, most of the other Timeline modes are like substitutes for a delay with an FX loop - I’d rather use one of those with my favorite bitcrusher, for instance, rather than the bitcrush delay on the Timeline.
Agreed. I have a Timeline and I really like it, but after hearing Strymon's other delay pedals side by side, I realize that it's definitely not the warmest sounding of the bunch. I may sell and get a Volante or El Cap.
I found them to be night and day in the store. Found it hard to believe how many people were happy and using the timeline. Timeline is a nice unit, but if your a snob grab the el cap.
Antoine, appreciate sharing your knowledge. I can say I've have benefited from your instructional videos, for my personal growth with the guitar. my question, can the Volante pedal come close to mirroring the Dig pedal, which I'm gravitating to. For my needs is definitely at least 3 recallable sound presets for gigging, on the fly. Thank you sir, Charles from Florida.
Highly detailed and focused comparisons. I can't even think of a question to ask for choosing one or more pedals as all my questions were answered. I have the El Capistan and have been wanting to get the timeline as well. I'm still juggling on whether to get the Volante or not. I think it's great using more than one delay. Thanks again Antoine.
Really good review and summary. Judging by the boomerang ii Looper peeking out top left I'd say you're something of a connoisseur of loop and delay pedals.
Hi Antoine. Awesome video! Two questions. Can the Timeline also do 2 delays at the same time like the DIG? Does the Timeline have the capacity to create the golden ratio by itself without needing another delay pedal? Thank you very much bro!
Yes, the Timeline has the Dual mode, which is pretty much the same thing as the Dig. I guess you could setup a golden ratio by yourself, but there is not a 'golden ratio sub' ready to be used like on the Dig!
Great video but 2 points. Anyone considering everything Strymon should also know about the Deco. I felt the best features of the Dig were overlooked, how the dual delays interact (or not). I also still don't yet know if the TimeLine or Volante have any dual delay capabilities.
Very nice video one of the best comparison videos. As for the el capistan can be set pretty clean if set the tape age to nil. And wow and flutter all the way left secondary bias function all the way to left.
He talks about the "warmth" of the El Capistan, but the primary tone (dry) seems to have trebles attenuated as much as the echoes. That leads me to think that the tonal range of the El Cap is skewed to the bass, relative to the more trebly tonal range overall of the Volante.
Timeline clearly stood out in the first round... Lol... I've been running a DD500 into my Timeline for years and will never get to the end of the creative possibilities...
Antoine! Huge fan of everything you do. Please, if possible, can you comment on your Timeline patch you created to sound close to the El Capistan (video 17:30). Cheers Mate!
Thanks Dino :-) You can actually see my process on screen when I replicated the patch in this video right here: ua-cam.com/video/cIWr8UTnObk/v-deo.html
Thank you for this great comparison! You say the volante has (almost) every parameters on its surface, otherwise than the smaller pedals. Is this also case with the timeline?
Not exactly, on some modes with the Timeline, you have to push the ''Value'' button and access other parameters inside. The Timeline allows to tweak more, even more than the Volante!
They’re all bright (all digital) … Dig (strangely) and Volante seemed warmest, in the intro - at least at those intro settings … 🤔 Edit: not sure what I was hearing in the intro … Tape Age (Tone) really saves the El Cap … Don’t like the rest … Shame the Wear/Mechanics knobs can’t salvage the Volante sound in the same way. Have you compared the Volante with the Boonar?
I have the Bigsky, and I find it to be very intense. I play ambient music, and I tend to set the Bigsky up with a subtle long reverb at the end of the chain, and then stack my delays for the wash and swell sounds as delays are less complex and tend to be cleaner. I started out being more into reverb than delay, but now I'm the other way around.
Thanks...Going Volante. But if I was loaded Id get the Capistan for that one taoe sound. But I'm sure with some tweaking the Volante will get close with the tape speed.
For me most delay pedals used like this are for ambient or film scores. In a band situation I found the El Capistan to be more musical. Using them like this is fun when you are noodling alone but when do we hear that much exaggerated delay in music? It exists but rarely.
Salut Antoine!! Tu m’as convaincu d’acheter la Dig.. maintenant comme j’aime acheter usagé devrais je opter pour la version 2 ou la version 1.. je suis un joueur de salon !! Merci pour tes vidéos et conseils 👌
La version 2 permet de l'utiliser en stéréo sans dévisser et ouvrir la pédale pour bouger un petit jumper, et elle a un bouton de plus pour le tone (qu'on peut faire en fonctions secondaires avec la V1). Pas énormément de gros changements et quand même une bonne différence de prix, donc personnellement j'irais avec la V1. La V2 serait plus difficile à trouver usagée aussi. Avec plaisir!

What did you get? Would you have considered the Timeline?
Best strymon comparison I’ve seen so far! Thank you!
Damn, I really liked that Brigadier!
Cheers for the hard work with this comparison 🙂
I got one recently -- thanks to Antoine's previous video -- and it's great, nicely complementing the El Cap and others. The long delay and modulation are real attractions, and you can get one used for around $200.
Trey Visqueux will need to check it ASAP!
Tomson kolson I have one for sale if you fancy it
I had both the volante and the el cap and kept the volante. You can get it to make those warm sounds if you mess with the rec level and other controls.
What an outstanding review. I love how you play the same riff over and over. This really allows me to the hear the differences. A hearty well done!!
I just received my Volante, holy smokes so many options. I totally love it.

Just picked up a Volante, but that El Cap is special.
Honestly, leaving here a big fan of the DIG, may just need to get one of those too.
excellent video. Really opened my eyes to the El Capistan. Thank you for that.
yeah I actually bought the El Capistan today just because of you! Better video explaining what you get with these delay pedals doesn't exist on UA-cam. Have a great summer :D

Awesome analysis! Do you have TimeLine VS Empress video comparison?
Great comparison/demo....
To my ears, the El Capistan sounds the richest and most interesting delay.. I've got two of them plus the DIG and Volante...Strymon make superb delays....

I have the 3 in the middle. I like DIG better than the Timeline & El Cap for what I do.
Sir this is probably the best educational video on UA-cam that I have seen, thankyou very much 👍

I’ve had 4 out of 5. Volante for easy flexibility, el cap for ease, timeline for hours spent chasing tone, brig for bottom end.
The Dig is probably my favorite. It's ridiculous how awesome it sounds especially in stereo.
5 years later and this is still THE BEST Strymon Delay comparison video!!
It's not for everyone, but the Volante is my favorite pedal I've ever owned. My bandmates would disagree though, too much knob twiddling LOL!
You should not let your bandmates twiddle those knobs.
Excellent Review. Thanks ! BTW, to the viewers, I'm using Beyer headphones and this review has excellent sound quality!
What a great lesson Antoine! Thanks for sharing all of that information on each of these pedals. There really are a lot of different choices and they are all good depending on what style of music you play. Great tips by the Master of Ambient Guitar!!!
I know this is old but DANG is that a beautiful line up of pedals. :P I recently got into Strymon and they are simply amazing.
I have everything apart from the brigadier. I like el cap into dig the most but the volante in stereo is very very impressive
Volante and el Capistan for me
I've forgoten about other delays after buying Volante)
I just wanted to comment that you're very good at explaining things, and getting your ideas across.
I appreciate that, thank you!
Great review!! Well done explaining differences. Crazy how one could be happy owning just one or all of them and not feel like they overlap each other. Use to Iove reverb the most, but found out I love delay more. Can never have enough!!!
I want the Volante. Hoping to get it for my birthday.
Excellent review. You put a lot of thought and work into this. Thank you for this.
Just what I needed. Thanks man
Great comparison video. I once had all of these smaller Strymon delays and sold them. Will be getting them again. Best delays on the market.
Thanks for the brief and highlights of Strymon delay series. It is useful!
Thanks for this. I recently bought the DIG, and I love it, but really interested in the El Capistan...just a great sound. Great demo of these fine pedals.
The El Capistan is like a living thing. It really feels like some rickety old contraption from grandpa's attic.
@@pCeLobster lol interesting

Thanks for the comparison! This helped me a lot in deciding what to get. I play keys and synths so I mights go with Timline or Volante. I like DIG the best out of the smaller pedals.

That is a great piece of work. Thank you for this comparison. Love the Brigadier, although I need a Lex next.
Thank You Antoine! very very helpful! Thanks for sharing all of that information on each of these pedals, help me to get my Strymon Dig!
Enjoy your DIG man :-)
Great vid! Just was I was looking for.
How does Volante fare with dirt pedals, other modulation pedals, pitch shifter and envelope filter pedals?
I have every Strymon delay - including the Deco (not shown here) and except the Volante, and they are ALL worth their weight in gold.
???
What’s wrong with the Volante?
I like to think of the El Cap as an "instant Boards of Canada" pedal.
El Capitan Canada
Instant bibio
absolutely wonderful and yes, I am interested in your course
Thanks Joel!
Good job on this dude!
Thank you. And impressive foot pointing.
Most useful demo/comparison for prospective buyers. THANK YOU!
Very welcome!
The Volante blossoms very well
I love that 'Rang 3 on the top of the board!
Hi Antoine. Awesome video!

I like your reviews on Strymon products but what about Eventide who are the main rival? What are your thoughts?
Great video but 2 points. Anyone considering everything Strymon should also know about the Deco. I felt the best features of the Dig were overlooked, how the dual delays interact (or not). I also still don't yet know if the TimeLine or Volante have any dual delay capabilities.
what a wonderful vid!
now what to do....i will take all of them.
Thanks so much for this comparison. It is super useful.
Another plus for the el capistan is that spring reverb
Very nice video one of the best comparison videos.
As for the el capistan can be set pretty clean if set the tape age to nil.
And wow and flutter all the way left secondary bias function all the way to left.
Bam! I got the El Cap...
He talks about the "warmth" of the El Capistan, but the primary tone (dry) seems to have trebles attenuated as much as the echoes. That leads me to think that the tonal range of the El Cap is skewed to the bass, relative to the more trebly tonal range overall of the Volante.
I want that Timeline. It's a powerhouse.
If you feel like you need its versatility buy it: youn won't regret it
Awesome review! I’m curious how the UAFX Starlight compares to these, since that pedal has numerous types of delays all in one also.
Timeline clearly stood out in the first round... Lol... I've been running a DD500 into my Timeline for years and will never get to the end of the creative possibilities...
Great demo, thank you. And a nice chap too.
Timeline is my favorite delay pedal. Like the unique sounds and easy to use.
the ElCapistan is just magic :)...that warmth
Man, they're all great!
Antoine! Huge fan of everything you do. Please, if possible, can you comment on your Timeline patch you created to sound close to the El Capistan (video 17:30). Cheers Mate!

Yeah, jack of all trades. Master of none. Lol. All the settings sound pretty boring

Thanks so much for this!
I was really struggling with which Delay I should go with for live and studio.. Very cool!
Want to know about compadre 1:51
They’re all bright (all digital) …
Dig (strangely) and Volante seemed warmest, in the intro - at least at those intro settings … 🤔
Edit: not sure what I was hearing in the intro … Tape Age (Tone) really saves the El Cap … Don’t like the rest …
Shame the Wear/Mechanics knobs can’t salvage the Volante sound in the same way. Have you compared the Volante with the Boonar?
Great video!
Great video man! I like the way you say "pretty"!
Excellent video. Very helpful.
I love the modulation on the timeline. When I followed up with getting a blue sky I was suprised that I dont like the modulation on that pedal.
I have the Bigsky, and I find it to be very intense. I play ambient music, and I tend to set the Bigsky up with a subtle long reverb at the end of the chain, and then stack my delays for the wash and swell sounds as delays are less complex and tend to be cleaner. I started out being more into reverb than delay, but now I'm the other way around.
Great format for comparison!
Pretty sure the Volante is supposed to emulate a drum delay (Echorec), not a tape delay … ? 🤔
Thanks...Going Volante.
But if I was loaded Id get the Capistan for that one taoe sound.
But I'm sure with some tweaking the Volante will get close with the tape speed.
For me most delay pedals used like this are for ambient or film scores. In a band situation I found the El Capistan to be more musical. Using them like this is fun when you are noodling alone but when do we hear that much exaggerated delay in music? It exists but rarely.

Good video. Was very helpful.
What would you recommend for ambient guitar. I am running the delay pedal into a neunaber immerse mkii. It will be my only delay on the board. Thanks
Timeline, definitely! Gives you so many options and presets to try. Thats the one I use the most for my ambient guitar songs.
Are there any videos that have examples of these delays with overdrive/distortion?
