Flashback 2 Delay : Very nice addition to the pedalboard

7 years ago

Before the Flashback 2 was on my board, I used the tc electronic Echo Brain analog delay. It sure was a great pedal, but I was in need for more versatility.

I always kept this option in the back of my head ever since it came out. I already had the Hall of Fame 2 and I absolutely loved it. The mash capability especially blew my mind. In combination with the toneprint functionality, this was by far the most versatile pedal on my board.

I could expect similar things from the Flash Back 2.

After the price drop (I remember it retailing for around ¤180,- euros prior) I immediately ordered one. When it came in the mail I tested it. And boy, my expectations were exceeded. I was jamming all day with this pedal just to find out what it was capable of. There are a lot of stock settings to choose from with three additional toneprint slots. Every single one seems to have a different reaction when pressing down the mash button. This mash button is pressure sensitive by the way, so the amount of the added effect can be controlled.

It truly is an amazing pedal!
