TC Electronic Flashback 2 Mini Delay Guitar Effect

Compact Delay Pedal with Full-Size Tone Engine

The TC Electronic Flashback 2 Mini Delay delivers eight distinct delay algorithms in a mini enclosure that preserves pedalboard real estate. With TonePrint technology, players access a vast library of artist presets, and analog-dry-through circuitry keeps the direct signal path untouched. This digital delay bridges the gap between studio-grade sound design and stage-ready playability, all in a footprint small enough for any board.

MASH Technology and Crystal Shimmer

Pressure-sensitive MASH footswitch technology is what distinguishes this model from ordinary mini delays. Instead of just toggling on and off, the effect responds to your foot pressure, controlling any assignable parameter in real time — swell delay mix, ramp up modulation depth, or push feedback into self-oscillation. The Crystal delay effect relies on a polyphonic octaver algorithm, producing shimmering pad sounds that transform single-note lines into atmospheric washes.

Delay Algorithms and TonePrint Library

Compatibility with both previous and current TonePrints allows this pedal to cover a broad sonic range, from tight slapback repeats to spacious echoes.

• Delay Types: 8 algorithms including tape, analog, digital, Crystal, and 2290 — vintage warmth to modern precision
• Delay time spans 60 ms to 800 ms (default TonePrint), and can be extended further with custom presets for more spacious effects.
• TonePrint Transfer: wireless beam via guitar pickups or Mini-B USB — no cables needed for quick preset swaps

Footswitch Configuration and Bypass Modes

Multiple functions are handled by a single footswitch, depending on how configuration is set through the TonePrint app.

• Bypass Mode: true bypass, switchable to buffered via app — preserve pure signal or drive long cable chains
• Expression control is available via the pressure-sensitive, parameter-assignable MASH footswitch, removing the need for an external pedal.
• Signal Path: analog-dry-through — unaffected dry tone regardless of delay settings

Dimensions and Power Requirements

• Size: 48 × 94 × 48 mm — mini footprint for crowded pedalboards
• Consistent and reliable operation is ensured by 9V DC center-negative power (no battery option).
• Connectivity: 1/4" input, 1/4" output, Mini-B USB — standard guitar connections plus computer-based editing
