I have a DIG and a full-size Brigadier on my board, between the two I can cover a lot of ground and prefer them to a Timeline. The DIG in particular has something really special going on that just works in a live situation. Great video!
Did you notice the difference between DIG V1 vs V2? The V2 sounded too warm for me. Not sure if it’s the repeats or the new JFET input but it didn’t wow’d me when I had it. I had both v1 and v2 at the same time for about a month but couldn’t gel with v2. The v1 always wow’d me when I turned it on while the v2 was just meh.
I noticed differences too. I have both versions. I read a comment on another video which noted differences between V1 and V2 and here's what was said: "Tested both a lot. Think i solved the difference by setting dry level to unity gain and have mix set slightly higher than v1". Interesting. If @LeonTodd could test this out. Would be helpful to hear a pro tackle this!
I actually asked Strymon about this specifc issue on where to set the input level to make it the same as V1 and this is a direct quote of the reply: "You'll want to set the DRY LEVEL Live Edit to TRACK MIX- this should be the default, but in this mode, it is the exact same taper and parts performing the same function as on V1 DIG. Noon on the TONE KNOB is the same as V1!"@@georgekeenan72. It still doesn't sound the same as the V1 though. The stereo field is still wider and clearer on the V1.
Don’t you hate that. I’m tore between both of these but I think I’ll go for Dig and maybe the Brig later. I really think Strymon needs a smaller version of the Dig like the Brig and a smaller El Capistan.
