Re: Gots me a TC Flashback today
so...TC Flashback owners, has the honeymoon period ended? I'm thinking of adding a flashback to go along with my El Cap. Hmm...

Re: Gots me a TC Flashback today
i'm still happy with my Flashback. i've been using the looper a lot recently because it has a longer loop time than the Head Rush, and it works well and edits the initial loop cleanly and accurately. i sure do wish it had an UNDO function, but i take that as a challenge...Fripp didn't have UNDO on his tape loops. everything else i've said still stands. for the price, you can't beat it with a crowbar.

Re: Gots me a TC Flashback today
The Flashback is on my list of try now for sure. Hopefully I'll pick one up within a few weeks.
Whats the sound quality like compared between the two? I want to try a timebender as well, but given I can't try one in a store I don't want to take a risk at losing some money (shipping etc). People on ILF seem to love it though. I'm interested in the bender because I really like the pattern feature (which is what makes me gas for the timeline
).

On a side note, I really wish TC would release their damn Tone Print software so users could create their own custom delay modes.

Sound quality on the Timbender is excellent, as is the Flasback. No hiss, noise, tone suck, etc.

I hear the tape mode on the timebender is actually pretty good. How is the digital/normal delay compared to the 2209 setting on the flashback? Also the reverse?
Seriously, these are the last questions I have for comparison
. I really want to try both, but I just need a good versatile digital delay with a basic looper for live purposes and the timebender seems more appropriate for that (given that its got presets).- culturejam

Re: Gots me a TC Flashback today
Honestly, the space of time between when I had the Timebender is too great for me to compare the modes.
Or rather, there was a long DELAY between owning the two.

My bad, I was under the impression you still had the timebender!

I have a time bender and all the modes are great.
I really like the Analog and use the digital quite often.
Right now I have it set up in reverse which sounds huge and is rediculously sweet.
Also The strum tempo feature makes me very happy
