Professional Vintage Tone Meets Modern Flexibility
Strymon’s processor-intense dBucket algorithm draws inspiration from revered vintage chorus pedals and classic vibrato units, faithfully delivering their warm, complex sonic character. The Ola includes convenient features such as true bypass, favourite preset saving, stereo input and output, plus a high-end analogue front and output stage that ensures pristine sound and dynamic response.
Choose the Single Delay-Line Chorus for a lush, flowing modulation that ranges from gentle shimmer to pulsing intensity via a logarithmic LFO. The Three-Phase Multi Delay-Line Chorus mode offers a rich ‘studio-style’ chorus that supports stronger wet signals without unwanted warble. For authentic vibrato, the sinusoidal LFO paired with a delay line creates classic wavering pitch effects reminiscent of beloved vintage stompboxes.
