"Then I have a Boss GigaDelay (DD-20) out there. That's this new one this year that has an LED read out so you can dial in the exact milliseconds. I use that on a lot of songs."

The blueSky covers all of my “greater than subtle” reverb effect needs. It’s typically set between a big spring or modulated plate, with the favorite set to huge modulated room

I’ve been using the El Cap and blueSky on my live boards for a few years now. I can’t remember if my first Strymon effect was an El Cap or Brigadier, but there was a time when I was using one of each on my pedalboard. The Brigadier only came off because of real estate needs on the board. I’ve also had a TimeLine on my board, but in the live environment show flow, I prefer the individual effects like El Cap and Brigadier, with their independent specific stomps, knobs, and toggles. The El Cap is on because it’s my favorite sounding vibey delay pedal, I use it with a Favorite Switch set for slapback.
