Strymon Olivera Vintage Oil Can Echo

We’re back today with the latest release from our friends over at Strymon, which is always an exciting time, as you all know. An out-of-the-box kind of effect, oil can delays produce extremely specific kinds of echoes, and when Strymon does their thing, the sonic possibilities suddenly become infinite. The Olivera Vintage Oil Can Echo is the result, bringing wide sweeps, stereo sound, gorgeous modulation and more to the practice room, recording studio and live on stage…

The Olivera Vintage Oil Can Echo is the first pedal emulation that truly captures the mechanical yet wildly organic nature of these oddball machines, bringing funky inspiration to anything you run through it. From dark and modulated repeats to sustaining textures that approach the sound of classic spring reverb tanks, Olivera captures the true soul of the original units, from the dark repeats with unique rhythmic and decay characteristics to the unreal thick modulation that changes and morphs as the audio does.

The first oil can echoes were made by the Tel-Rey company in 1959, achieving the echoes using a small rotating can filled with conductive oil as the dielectric material instead of tape. This novel approach yields very different sounds than what you would hear from a tape machine, and the results instantly transport the listener to a darker and murkier place that positively oozes vibe. The sheer number of variables in the design made authentic emulation challenging, requiring a ton of research and a brand new algorithm to get to the realism that Strymon set out to achieve.
