| The Strymon La Brea is an all-analog drive pedal built around multi-stage tape saturation. It is part of Strymon's Series A line, so there is no digital processing, firmware, MIDI or USB. It is aimed at guitarists who want one drive that goes from light breakup to full fuzz and keeps its dynamics along the way. Strymon's sound samples also show it on bass DI, baritone guitar and in front of the Iridium amp/cab pedal.
The idea grew out of the Saturation voices of Strymon's Deco, and analog engineer Josh developed the circuit over about ten years. The saturation is soft-clipping and tape-like. At low TAPE SAT settings it adds mild overdrive and slightly rounds off transients; turned up, it moves into heavy distortion, long sustain and fuzz, with the tape circuit adding natural compression. High-frequency filtering keeps the top end from turning harsh. The pedal cleans up when you roll back your guitar's volume, even at high gain, and it reacts well to the amp and pedals around it. The DRY knob is what sets the La Brea apart from a typical drive. Blending the in-phase clean signal back in keeps pick attack and articulation at high gain and can make the overall sound feel bigger. It also helps drive pedals further down the chain that respond to a strong transient. With LEVEL turned all the way down, DRY works on its own as a cut or clean boost, helped by the 24V rail. SHIFT adds sparkle in the high position, stays full-range in flat, and lifts the upper mids for more bite in mid. The input uses a low-noise JFET buffer and the output is low impedance. The pedal powers up bypassed by default, but internal jumpers let you have it come on engaged, which is useful on two-tier boards or in rack drawers. The La Brea is designed and built in the USA. | Regular price
