Just got delivery of my previous stash o' goodies; next on the list:

Strymon ElCapistan "dTape" Echo.

http://www.strymon.net/products/elcapistan/

I had to have it... ain't spending $1K for a Fulltone.

B-day (very soon) present... hallelujah it's raining gear!   :icon_jokercolor:
 
I checked out the vids on that link....

Very good tape echo sounds, but I was wondering how you felt about the secondary functions of the knobs. Seems there's a sub-menu for each knob and it does appear to make the box a fair bit more complex. Are the secondary functions intuitive, or would you be needing a manual nearby to keep track of each knob's features as you engage the secondary function?

Don't have it quite yet... quite yet.

But yes, there's 10 functions (not including the 2 toggle switches) - I'm sure at first I'll need
a graphic to refer to at first, but after that, memorization should kick in.

Oddly enough, one function is "spring reverb" - huh?  Oh well can't complain...
