Strymon Orbit dBucket Flanger effects Pedal

Manufacturer Part #:  ORBIT
Features

The Strymon Orbit dBucket Flanger is a digital effects pedal that uses Strymon's proprietary "dBucket" algorithm to meticulously emulate the sound and characteristics of classic analog bucket-brigade device (BBD) flangers, while adding modern features like Through-Zero flanging and a Mix control.

It is known for its versatility, offering a wide range of flanger, chorus, and vibrato tones.

Key Controls and Features

ControlFunction
SPEEDAdjusts the rate of the Low-Frequency Oscillator (LFO).
WIDTHAdjusts the depth/sweep range of the LFO.
REGENControls the feedback intensity of the flanging effect. High settings produce more intense, 'jet-like' sounds.
MANUALSets the center delay time of the flanging effect. This works with the WIDTH to determine the overall frequency range of the sweep.
MIXAdjusts the wet/dry signal balance, a feature often missing on traditional analog flangers, providing greater control over effect intensity.

Modes (Toggle Switches)

The Orbit's versatility comes from its two three-position toggle switches:

1. Feedback Type (REGEN Switch)

Controls the phase relationship between the wet (delayed) signal and the dry signal, shaping the character of the flange:

  • POS (+): Positive Feedback (in phase). Produces a brighter, sharper, more pronounced "jet-like" flange sound.

  • NEG (-): Negative Feedback (out of phase). Creates more "hollow" or "watery" sounding flange effects.

  • +/-: Positive/Negative Feedback. A unique, frequency-dependent mode that combines elements of both, creating new and complex harmonic sweeps.

2. LFO Waveform/Sweep Type (LFO Switch)

Controls the shape and behavior of the modulation sweep:

  • LOG (Logarithmic): Provides a frequency sweep that sounds even across the entire range, mimicking classic analog flangers.

  • LIN (Linear): Creates a frequency sweep that speeds up in the higher frequencies and slows down in the lower frequencies.

  • THRU 0 (Through Zero): A feature only possible in high-quality digital or tape flanging (not standard BBD). It allows the wet signal to advance ahead of the dry signal, creating a dramatic, phase-cancellation "swoosh" effect that passes right "through zero" delay time.

Other Features

  • Stereo Output: The pedal features stereo outputs for immersive soundscapes.

  • Expression Pedal Input: Allows for real-time, continuous control over any single knob parameter (selectable by the user).

  • FAVORITE Footswitch: A dedicated footswitch to instantly save and recall a single preset.

  • True Bypass: Uses an electromechanical relay for true bypass switching.
