What’s up with Damage Control? Q&A

Posted by Ethan

So, you may have asked yourself. What’s up with Damage Control? What the heck have these guys been up to?

Over the last couple years, we’ve been happily building TimeLine, Glass Nexus, Demonizer, Womanizer, Solid Metal and Liquid Blues for many satisfied customers and artists. During that time we transitioned our sales model from retail music stores to direct sales right through our website.

What is this Strymon I keep hearing about?

Late last year we teamed up with our friend Terry at Strymon Engineering and started working on some new products together. Things went so well that Terry came on board and Strymon is now a division of Damage Control. Strymon is dedicated to providing insanely high-quality, cutting edge, boutique music electronics.

What Strymon products are available?

Over the last few months we’ve released the OB.1 Optical Compressor, Brigadier dBucket delay, Ola dBucket Chorus & Vibrato, blueSky Reverberator and Orbit dBucket Flanger. And there will be more where these came from!

So. What’s happening with Damage Control products?

It’s official, we’re opening a new chapter in the Damage Control book. We have completed the final build of our existing line of products.

Whaaaat???

You heard us right. We’re discontinuing everything. We have limited quantities of our products available in our online store. Once they’re gone, they’re gone forever.

It’s time for Damage Control to push the envelope once again. To create new paradigms in music electronics that are unlike anything you’ve ever heard. We’ve got a whole new array of projects brewing in the Damage Control kitchen. In the coming months you will begin to see some sneak previews of what’s to come. We’re very excited about what’s going on in our labs and we hope you will be too. New Damage Control products are coming. Stay tuned.

Make sure to sign up for our email newsletter and we’ll keep you in the loop!

So if you want a Liquid Blues or a Demonizer, you might want to hop to it and head on over to our online store. And the last TimeLine out the door may very well become a collectors item!

    I have 4 DC pedals – Liquid Blues, Solid Metal, Demonizer and Timeline. Some of the best-sounding pedals money can buy. I’ll definitely be trying to complete my set when I can afford it.

    Very excited about the prospect of new products, though. Can’t wait to hear more.

    DC,

    If you redo the Timeline, please consider the following: A BPM readout, presets that can be used in conjunction with the tap tempo switch, that is it. It is such an awesome pedal. I cannot imagine selling it…unless it was for a new and improved one…thank you for making one of the best digital delays ever

    I think you should make high quality digital delay rack units, geared and priced towards the studio crowd.

    No one is making a really high qualtiy delay rack anymore. Without the Lexicon PCM42, Primetime, the AMS DMX1580s, the Korg SDD-3000 and the TC2290, there is nothing comparable on the market today.

    Make the next generation of high qualtiy delay rack processor with knobs only and a nice fully featured modulation section.

    I own the Timeline and it compared favorably to some of the above which I also own.

    This part of the market has no competition at the moment. People are bored of software and buying more hardware. Bring some nice new delay to the next generation of producers.
