Flashback Delay & Looper features 7 seconds of delay time and several delay types – from TC Electronic’s 2290 delay to old-school tape echo. In total, there are 9 different types to choose from, and it even doubles as a looper. Flashback Delay & Looper also features TC Electronic’s audio tapping technology, allowing users to set the delay times by strumming the guitar, and a toggle switch that goes between quarter notes, dotted 8s or stereo with different values left and right.
These new pedals feature a new concept called ‘TonePrint’ that gives users access to the sounds of famous guitar heroes. A TonePrint isn’t just a static preset, it’s a re-tuning of the pedal. TC Electronic has collaborated with John Petrucci, Ron ‘Bumblefoot’ Thal, Joe Perry, Orianthi and Doug Aldrich – to create the first batch of TonePrints,
A simple USB cable connects these pedals to any PC or Mac for the actual Tone Transfusion. Each pedal is capable of holding one TonePrint at a time, but the concept is unlimited as users can swap TonePrints as many times as they want. All of these custom made TonePrints can be downloaded at TC Electronic’s website for free.
