TC Electronic Triple Flashback Delay
TC Electronic · pedal
The TC Electronic Triple Flashback Delay runs up to three independent delay engines at once, each individually footswitchable, with a toggle to select which engine to edit and a shared tap tempo footswitch. A serial/parallel switch changes how the three interact: parallel sends the dry signal to all three delays at once for tight, rhythmically interlocking repeats, while series chains delay one into two into three for huge, cascading, three-dimensional echo trails. Sixteen selectable delay types span crisp digital, warm analog, tube, tape, lo-fi, reverse, ping-pong, and slapback voicings, plus four TonePrint slots for downloading signature delay settings from artists like Steve Morse, Guthrie Govan, and John Petrucci, all runnable simultaneously. It suits players wanting deep, layered, genuinely three-dimensional delay textures well beyond what a single or dual delay pedal can produce.
