I knew about the buffered mode, but they didn't say anything about the trails in the manual. Thanks you answered my question without changing my dip switch.

[@cyruseli]

Same here, just read through the whole damn manual looking for a way to get the trails on 😅

[@arsemodeus]

Exactly what I was searching for - thank you!

[@thuggeetennessee7981]

Excellent, cheers!

[@Spesiell]

Helpful, cheers!

[@mahoganymarco9199]

Thank you. I have the flashback. I'll check now if I prefer it like that

[@thalanimnuan1785]

Thank you so much from thai.

[@diiegoaguilera7435]

Could you do an explanation of the bottom switch?
Great video

[@dude_crush_]

I was wondering if you still hear the trails of delay repeats after turning the pedal off in Buffered Bypass. Thank you for clearing up that up.

Are there any videos that address using the alter ego imagine the number one eagle alter ego one or two possibly?

[@lostgroovemusic8494]

Just a question you know on looper whatever you record does it save it until you re record over it again in the looper mode

[@PhatPhishGuitarStudio]

In my experience *generally* yes, a looper pedal keeps the recording even after power off...but I wouldn't want to say that's the case for *every* looper pedal out there

[@lostgroovemusic8494]

You still got the delay pedal ? Is it the original flashback delay pedal without the mash?

[@PhatPhishGuitarStudio]

Yes, it's still on my board. The original non-mash version.

[@lostgroovemusic8494]

@@PhatPhishGuitarStudio cool you think original better then new one or they same really

[@PhatPhishGuitarStudio]

@@lostgroovemusic8494 The new one is technically "better" in that it has richer features, but that's only of value if you have a suitable use case. I remember seeing the Mash feature when it came out, and thinking it was really cool and clever....but I never felt the need to upgrade because I don't see that fitting in with the way that I use a delay pedal. If you just want a good quality, flexible delay but aren't bothered about the extra features then the original is fine. If you're more likely to get more experimental and creative, then the Mash control could be just the thing you need. It's horses for courses really.
