Strymon Deco Tape Emulation Pedal with Rhodes MK1 Electric Piano

As promised, running the ‪@rhodesmusic‬ through the gorgeous ‪@strymon‬ deco and fiddling with knobs. A great way to add some extra grit and movement to a classic keyboard - sounds awesome with the wobble cranked... Lots of playing, plenty of waffling on from me - sorry, I'm just in love with this awesome pedal...

This pedal continues to amaze me. It does a few things very well. Great demo!

[@ryantaylorlive]

Yeah - it's pretty awesome. Pleased to hear you liked the video. Thanks for watching and stay tuned - got a series coming out soon featuring outboard pedals for keyboards...

[@jonathand.haskell4395]

This rhodes sounds incredible

[@ryantaylorlive]

Thanks bud. Rhodes pianos are incredible instruments

[@Audioequipmenttalk]

This is way better than my deco Rhodes video. Great job! Your piano playing is 🔥.

[@ryantaylorlive]

Thanks bro. Your demo is cool too - I think I checked it out before committing to buy the Deco. There’s always a lack of keyboard demos with these pedals so the interweb needs us!

[@zakguitar2359]

your videos are really relaxing

[@ryantaylorlive]

Thanks mate - this pedal is really relaxing.....

[@johncitizen8828]

[@ZackYouTube]

Thanks a lot for sharing!

[@ryantaylorlive]

Thanks - glad to be of service. HMU if you would like me to share anything else on this pedal or keyboard production in general...

[@Dolores5000]

Love my Deco too!

[@ryantaylorlive]

Yep, they're awesome. ❤️

[@starcloud4959]

Now that is nice!!! Wonder what it sounds like with a Ray Manzarek free form jazz run like 'Riders On The Storm' ?

[@ryantaylorlive]

Coming up - check the next video, 11/11/22.....

[@ninovasev]

thanks

[@ryantaylorlive]

No problem

[@Phazers]

Lovely playing, and a great demo the Deco. Quite sure your video was 50% of my influence to get one! My Deco sits at the end of the pedal chain, with my ‘79 Mark I.
Is that some wah at the beginning? Also, have you compressed the signal? This recording has a rich detail I haven’t heard from my Deco. What’s your signal chain here? Cheers.

[@ryantaylorlive]

Hi. Yup - there's a Crybaby Fazel wah happening. I can't remember but there might have been a bit of audio compression on the overall video, just to bring the level up. Signal chain is mk1->wah->deco->UAD Apollo interface->Neve Unison preamp

[@silvertongues2]

Is this the first version Deco? I think a newer version came out fairly recently

[@ryantaylorlive]

Hi. Yes. The new one has an extra knob and midi.

[@blueshorecreative3146]

Wow!!! I always thought the Fender Rhodes sound was the sweetest to the ear. It seems this pedal can make it sound sweeter still! The sounds you got were amazing. One of them belongs on Pink Floyd Sheep. Now where do I buy a Rhodes? 🤪

[@ryantaylorlive]

This pedal does indeed bring most sound sources to life in all kinds of ways. My Rhodes was an absolute steal - someone had one in the attic and just wanted rid of it. I cried when I got it! Rhodes MK8 are being made by my friends here in the UK but they are seriously expensive. You can find original Rhodes MK1/2 on eBay/Reverb occasionally around £2000. Also check out Vintage Vibe pianos - they sound incredible. Thanks for checking out my video.
