Strymon Introduces New Olivera Vintage Oil Can Echo

Oil can echoes like the classic Tel Rey® units actually used a motorized rotating can andlubricating oil to generate the murky repeats that they’re known for, creating a mountain oforganic variables that make recreating their behavior in software a major challenge. The resultof all of this research is a brand-new algorithm that has never before appeared in a Strymonproduct, capable of generating all of the organic chaos and vibe of the original units.All of the vintage flavor also comes with modern features like independent stereo processing of

the left and right inputs, full MIDI and expression control, stereo TRS ins and outs with multipleaudio routing modes and USB-C for firmware updates and computer control.

“This was a fun project to dig into and get right”, said Pete Celi, Strymon co-founder and DSPguru. “The sheer number of organic variations and interactions makes recreating the behaviorof a device like this pretty daunting, but that makes it even more rewarding when it all comestogether.” Celi continues, “I imagine that many folks would say that these units are simply filtered anddark, but it goes way beyond that. The way that these systems record and play back the signalresults in a really unique and magical ambience that doesn’t sound like anything else.”Olivera is available now directly from Strymon and from dealers worldwide for $259 US.For additional information visit https://www.strymon.net.
