Groundbreaking MASH technology turns footswitch into a pressure-responsive expression controllerĮthereal crystal delay algorithm pitches your delays up an octave through each feedback loop to give an other-worldly shimmer Many competitors provide the user with greater editing capabilities & accurate hardware emulations.Legendary delay pedal returns, offering an innovative pressure-sensitive footswitch and a new crystal delay effect The editing capability is powerful, but users are restricted in how they can use it. TC has not focused on improving the core technology, but instead an impressive expression switch. Unfortunately I won’t be buying the Flash Back 2. This would make the product competitive with the Strymon Timeline, Boss DD500, Empress Echo System and Source Audio Nemesis, as well as other editable delays such as the Boss DD20 & EHX Canyon. Although the Flashback 2 has 3 Tone Print slots, the Tape algorithm is still dark and degraded, tri-chorus on the Mod is too deep and Dyn acts like a gate.Īs the core technology is developed (Tone Print Editor & the ability to update the Flash Back firmware), the cost is low and would increase sales without having to build a new product which is costly. As a result I have a redundant Tape slot and have used my Tone Print slot to solve a problem that should not have occurred. Currently I use the Tone Print slot to load Andy’s EP3 Tone Print because the stock tape algorithm does not correctly model tape based delays. The 2290 could be customised using Dynamic Ducking, Modulation & Filtering.Īllow users to edit the stock algorithms using the tone print editor. The current offering is no longer a professional product, and is less customisable than the original. TC Electronic has a rich history as a leader of rack based digital delays with the release of the 2290 in ’80's. The Mod depth for the chorusing is much too deep - the individual delays are not pleasant in isolation.ĭyn is unusable and does not allow for subtle rack based ducking, instead acting as a gate.Īll delays should have the option of Ping Pong via the editor. LoFi is too quiet and requires the FX level to be increased to match gain. (So much so that TC’s marketing department decided to create a video to educate us on why the algorithm is this way using the Roland Space Echo) Tape is too dark and degraded and not representative of tape based delays. Delays can only be edited in the tone print slots.
