2. Introduction
FLASHBACK 2 DELAY packs our entire delay legacy into a single compact
and affordable stompbox that's designed for now – and the future.
Our groundbreaking MASH technologyadds anexpression pedal toaworldclassdelay stompbox that responds to your touch andsavesprecious
pedalboard space – and blendstheetherealworld of delay with theultimate
inpersonalexpression.Add the brand-new Crystal delay algorithm and two
additional TonePrint slots, and the soon-to-be legendary FLASHBACK 2 DELAY
brings a wealth of new dimensionality to your quest for tonal perfection!
2.1 Unpacking
Your TC ELECTRONIC effect pedal box should contain the following items:
• Your TC ELECTRONIC effect pedal
• 1 USB cable (Type A to Mini-B)
• 1 TC ELECTRONIC sticker
Inspect all items for signs of transit damage. In the unlikely event of transit
damage, inform the carrier and supplier. If damage has occurred, keep all
packaging, as it can be used as evidence of excessive handling force.
2.2 True Bypass
Here at TC, we have a simple philosophy: When you are using one of our products,
you should hear something great – and when it’s off, you shouldn’t hear it at all.
This is why this pedal sports True Bypass. When it is bypassed, it is really off and
as zero influence on your tone, resulting in optimum clarity and zero loss of
high end.
Sometimes, it is advisable to switch an effect pedal from True Bypass to Buffered
Bypass mode. For more information, see “6.2 Switching the pedal from
True Bypass to Buffered Bypass”
2.3 Setting up
Connect a 9 V power supply with the following symbol to the DC input socket of
your TC ELECTRONIC effect pedal.
This product does not come with a power supply.
We recommend using TC ELECTRONIC’s PowerPlug 9
(sold separately).
• If no power supply is available, you can run this product using a battery.
For more information on changing batteries, see “7.2 Changing the battery”.
• Plug the power supply into a power outlet.
• Connect your instrument to the in jack on the right side of the pedal using a
¼ " jack cable.
• Connect the out jack on the left side of the pedal to your amplifier using a
¼ " jack cable.
3. TonePrint
This TC Electronic product supports TonePrints. To learn more about TonePrints,
go to tcelectronic.com/toneprint/
3.1 What are TonePrints?
When you look at your TC Electronic e ect pedal, you’ll only see a few knobs.
Actually, for some pedals, it’s just one knob. So – one knob, one function, right?
Actually, there’s a lot more to it than meets the eye.
Star-tweaked signature sounds
When TC Electronic builds an e ect pedal, the relationship between its controls
and many parameters “under the hood” are de ned by developers, musicians
and product specialists who live and breathe sound. This gives you an excellent
starting point: a great-sounding pedal with well-balanced controls.
But wouldn’t it be cool to have world-famous guitar players – guys like
Paul Gilbert, Guthrie Govan, John Petrucci or Steve Vai – virtually rewire your
reverb pedal, de ning what should happen “behind the scenes”?
And how about doing this yourself?
This is exactly what TonePrint allows you to do.
TC Electronic is working with top guitar players who explore a pedal’s hidden
tonal potential, rede ning the controls and creating their personal TonePrints.
And we are making these custom TonePrints available to you. Uploading them to
your pedal is really easy (see “Transferring Tone- Prints to your pedal using the
TonePrint app”) – and with the amazing TonePrint Editor, you can even create
your own signature pedal, tweaked speci cally to your liking.
You can change the TonePrints in your pedal as often as you like, and the best
part: It’s totally free.
3.2 Transferring TonePrints to your pedal
using the TonePrint app
Being able to virtually rewire your TC Electronic e ect pedal wouldn’t be much
use if you needed a lot of extra equipment to do it. This is why we created the
TonePrint app. The TonePrint app is free software for popular smartphones that
allows you to “beam” new TonePrints right into your e ect pedal whenever and
wherever you feel like it.

Obtaining TonePrint Editor
Download the TonePrint Editor manual from
tcelectronic.com/toneprint-editor/support/
If you open the manual for TonePrint Editor in Adobe Reader, you can click
on interface sections to jump directly to the sections of the manual you are
interested in.
4.1 Power / Computer connection
(1) POWER input - To power up your pedal, connect a power supply to its
power input socket. The power input socket of your TC ELECTRONIC effect
pedal is a standard 5.5/2.1 mm DC plug (centre = negative).
Your TC ELECTRONIC e ect pedal requires a 9 V power supply providing
100 mA or more (not supplied). TC ELECTRONIC recommends using the
PowerPlug 9.
To minimize hum, use a power supply with isolated outputs. If no power
supply is available, you can run this product using a battery. For more
information on changing batteries, see “7.2 Changing the battery”.
(2) USB port - Use the standard Mini-B USB port on your TC ELECTRONIC effect
pedal to connect your pedal to a computer. If there should be firmware
updates for this pedal, they can be installed using the USB port –
see “7.1 Updating the firmware”.
4.2 Switching
(3) FOOTSWITCH - The footswitch performs performs 2 functions - on/off
and MASH.
• To turn the e ect on, tap the footswitch. To turn the e ect o , tap the
footswitch again.
• The footswitch also controls the MASH function, which is detailed in
section 5.2.
*The delay tempo can still be controlled with your feet, but this is done by connecting a separate
footswitch to the Stereo Input jack. See section 4.3 for details.
(4) INDICATOR LED - The LED lights up when the effect is switched on.
4.3 Audio in and out
(5) AUDIO INPUT/TAP TEMPO - The audio inputs on the right side of this pedal
are standard ¼ " jacks (mono/TS). Connect your guitar to the mono audio
input on the right side of your pedal using a regular ¼ " instrument cable.
The pedal also accepts stereo signals using a pair of ¼ " TS cables.
Page 6
6 FLASHBACK 2 DELAY User Manual
When using the Flashback 2 in mono, you can connect an external
footswitch to the Stereo input jack with a TRS or TRS-to-TS cable to control
the delay tempo. The external footswitch will also function as a dedicated
‘Stop’ switch when using the looper mode. Note
must be enabled in the editor software, and this causes both output jacks to
operate in mono.
that external tap tempo
(6) AUDIO OUTPUT - The audio outputs on the left side of this pedal are
standard ¼ " jacks (mono/TS). Connect the audio output of your pedal to the
next device in the signal chain, either with a single cable or with a pair of
¼ " cables if both inputs are used.
4.4 E ect controls
Please note that the knob assignments on your TC Electronic pedal are the default
assignments. Using the TonePrint editor, you can rewire all knobs so they control
one or several parameters of your choice. For more information, see the TonePrint
editor manual.
(7) DELAY knob – Use this knob to adjust the time of the delay. Most delay
types have a range of 20 ms to 7000 ms (7 seconds!).
(8) SUBDIVISION switch – This switch determines the note intervals that the
delay repetitions are based on. The options are quarter note, dotted eighth,
and quarter note plus dotted eighth.
(9) FEEDBACK knob – Use the Feedback knob to determine the number of
delay repeats.
(10) MASH LED - This will light up when the MASH function is engaged by
pressing down firmly on the footswitch. The LED gets brighter as the
footswitch receives more pressure, indicating a more intense triggering of
the parameter that is assigned to this function.
(11) LEVEL knob – This knob adjusts the volume level of the delay repeats.
The direct, unprocessed signal is always passed through at the original
(unity) level. The Level knob only controls how prominently the delay
repeats are mixed with the dry signal.
renowned TC 2290. The delay’s output level is actively altered by the dynamics
of the input level. While playing, the delay level is attenuated, and in between
phrases the delay level is increased. This allows you to play with a relatively large
amount of delay without muddying fast ri s.
MODULATED
Take the 2290’s pristine sound, send it through three (!) chorus pedals… et voilà.
If you’re into
while you’re at it, try playing around with the SUBDIVISION switch.
CRYSTALS
The Crystals e ect pitch shifts the echoes up an octave through each delay loop,
creating a haunting and other-worldly sound. This is a very unique e ect that
may open some interesting options, particularly when paired with the
MASH function.
REVERSE
If you’ve been around for some time, you know the drill: Record a guitar part on
tape. Flip the tape over. Play it back. This is a classic e ect made famous by guitar
legends such as Jimi Hendrix – and although it’s kind of “old school”, the reverse
e ect still seems to inspire people to try out new things.
LOOPER
Set the Delay type selector to LOOP to use the built-in audio looper.
This functionality is explained in ‘Chapter 5.3 Using the looper’.

(12) Delay type selector – Select the type of delay or TonePrint with this knob.
The available types are described in the following section (4.5).
4.5 Delay types
2290
Once upon a time… (i.e., back in 1985) TC Electronic released the 2290 Dynamic
Digital Delay. It set the bar for professional delays for years to come and is still
held in high regard among delay enthusiasts. Use the “2290” delay for the
crispest and cleanest delay you can imagine. This is the standard.
ANALOG
This is as close as you can get to the charming nature of an old analog transistor
bucket-brigade delay without buying the real thing! With every repeat, you get
more of that old-school “fade to grey” vibe.
TAP E
Who doesn’t love the smooth sound of an old tape echo machine? This new-andimproved algorithm meticulously replicates every aspect of authentic tape delay,
including the pitch shifting that occurs when the delay time is altered.
DYNAMIC
This is a replica of the legendary Dynamic Delay initially introduced in the

5. Operation
5.1 Signal chain placement
The Flashback 2 can be used several ways depending on your situation. While there isn’t necessarily a right and wrong use, here are the most common scenarios.
Example 1: Before the amp’s input
Input
Guitar
Combo Amp
Flashback 2
Input
(Optional amp
for stereo operation)
Chorus
(mono or stereo)
Drive pedal
When using the Flashback 2 before the amp’s input, it is generally best to place it after your other pedals. If any stereo e ects are used before the reverb pedal, you can
preserve this stereo signal by connecting to both of the Flashback 2’s inputs and sending the output jacks to di erent amps or to a stereo input on a mixer.
Example 2: In the amp’s FX loop
5.2 MASH switch
The MASH function on the Flashback 2 is a very exciting and innovative feature
that allows continuous control of a desired parameter through pressure on the
footswitch. This opens up countless creative possibilities, particularly with the
user-defined TonePrints
The standard toggle function of the footswitch reacts to single, quick presses of

the switch to turn the pedal on and off. If you press the switch slightly harder
and hold it down, the MASH function will engage, causing the associated LED
to light up slightly. As you press down harder on the switch, the LED lights up
brighter and the parameter that has been assigned to this function will increase

its value. Releasing the footswitch will exit the MASH function and the LED will
turn off, but the pedal will still be engaged.
Guitar
Note that the pressure needed to reach the maximum MASH level is only 10 kg
(around 20 pounds), which can be achieved just by squeezing with your fingers.
You shouldn’t need to lean too much weight on the pedal. With some practice,

The Flashback 2 has a very wide gain range, and can easily be used with guitar or
loop-level signals. Simply connect the amp’s Send jack to the Flashback 2 input,
and connect the output to the amp’s Return jack.
this feature will become familiar and expressive much like a wah or
volume pedal.
Using the TonePrint editor software, you can assign your own parameter to this
unique feature and save a custom preset that allows you to create sounds that
very few reverb units have been capable of before. See Chapter 3 for more details
on TonePrints.!

5.3 Using the looper
With the looper built into your Flashback 2, you can record and play back grooves
and lines for playing along. You can even overdub your recording an unlimited
number of times.
The first round of recording always sets the length of the loop. The
loop can be up to 40 seconds in mono and 20 seconds in stereo, regardless of how
many overdubs you make.
If an overdub exceeds the length of the loop, a third round of recording begins.
This gives a very natural, logic and musical feel when recording loops.
The DELAY and FEEDBACK knobs are inactive in Loop mode.
Recording and playing loops:
• Set the Delay type selector to LOOP.
• Make sure the pedal is in bypass mode (i.e., the LED should be o ). Feel the
groove and prepare for recording. Then tap the pedal’s footswitch to start
your recording and begin playing. The pedal’s LED ashes red.
• To stop recording, press the footswitch again. Flashback Delay immediately
switches to playback mode and starts playing the loop. In playback mode,
the LED is green.
• To overdub your recording, press the switch once more. The LED now blinks.
• To delete all recordings, double-tap the footswitch.
• An external footswitch can be connected to the Stereo Input jack to act as a
dedicated Stop switch (mono mode only).
duration of a
6.2 Switching between True Bypass and
Buffered Bypass
To set the bypass mode, proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the pedal and turn it on its back.
• Unscrew the back plate of the pedal and look for the two small dip-switches
in the upper left corner.
• The upper DIP switch (the one closer to the power in jack), switches between
True Bypass mode (default) and Buffered Bypass mode. The other switch has
no function.
• Set the DIP switch to the desired position.
• Remount the back plate.
6.3 Kill-dry on/o
When you activate Kill-dry, the direct signal is removed from the pedal’s output.
Use this mode when you place your TC Electronic e ect pedal in a parallel
e ects loop.
To set Kill-dry mode, proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the pedal and turn it on its back.
• Unscrew the back plate of the pedal and look for the two small dip-switches
in the upper left corner.
• The lower DIP switch (the one further away from the power in jack),
switches between Kill-dry on and Kill-dry o mode.
6. Bypass Mode
6.1 True Bypass and Buffered Bypass explained
True Bypass mode is a hard-wire bypass that gives absolutely no coloration of
tone when the pedal is bypassed. This is the default mode for your effect pedal.
Using True Bypass on all pedals is a perfect choice in setups with a few pedals and
relatively short cables before and after the pedals
If...
• you use a long cable between your guitar and the first pedal or
• if you use many pedals on your board or
• if you use a long cable from your board to the amp,
... then the best solution will most likely be to set the first and the last pedal in
the signal chain to Buffered Bypass mode.
Can you hear the difference between a pedal in True
Bypass or Buffered Bypass mode?
Maybe, maybe not – many factors apply: active vs. passive pick-ups, single-coil
vs. humbucker, cable quality, amp impedance and more. We cannot give a single
ultimate answer. Use your ears and find the best solution for your setup!
You can only remove the dry signal from the signal path if you have selected
Bu ered Bypass mode using the upper DIP switch (see section 6.2). Kill-dry is not
available in True Bypass mode.
