A Milestone for Strymon: Entering Eurorack
Introduced at NAMM 2018, the Strymon Magneto marks the brand's entry into the Eurorack world with an ambitious proposal: to recreate the character of a stereo tape echo while opening it up to modular logic (clock, modulation, real-time play). Whereas a classic delay merely repeats, Magneto behaves like a living machine, with its "transport," tape behaviors, and a performance-focused approach.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
Magneto is aimed at advanced to expert Eurorack musicians, producers, and live performers seeking a stereo delay that becomes an instrument. It excels in techno, ambient, electro, synthwave, dub, and sound design for film music, thanks to its looper/sampler capabilities, pitch control, clock synchronization, and self-oscillation. In the studio, it adds depth and movement; on stage, its transport controls (buttons and CV) transform every patch into a musical gesture.

Questions frequently asked
Can the Strymon Magneto synchronize to a Eurorack clock?
Clock CV inputs and outputs provide phase-aligned syncing over a range from 50 ms to 15 s. Tap Tempo also covers 50 ms to 15 s, while Tap CV goes as low as 10 ms.
What is the loop duration offered by this module?
The maximum duration is 15 seconds at maximum speed and up to two minutes at minimum speed thanks to the 8:1 Varispeed range. The minimum delay time is 200 microseconds at maximum speed.
Can Magneto be used as a looper and sampler?
Three modes are available: echo with inversion, looper, and phrase sampler. Sampling operates at 96 kHz. Transport controls, including Restart and Infinite with CV inputs, allow loop control during performance.
How to achieve a worn or unstable tape echo effect?
Dedicated controls adjust machine condition, tape age or wear, as well as wow and flutter. The recording level ranges from clean sounds to saturation, with repeats that can go into self-oscillation.
How much rack space does this stereo delay occupy in a Eurorack?
This model occupies 28 HP and offers audio, CV, and Sync In inputs. The audio output is a stereo jack, complemented by a CV output.
