4.1 Kontrolniki na zgornji plošči
- Gumb ZA ZAMIK: Controls the delay time, from short slap-back echoes to long, ambient repeats.
- F.BACK Knob: Adjusts the number of repeats (feedback) for the delay effect. Turn clockwise for more repeats, counter-clockwise for fewer.
- Gumb LEVEL: Sets the mix level of the delayed signal relative to the dry signal.
- Nožno stikalo MASH: This multi-functional footswitch acts as an on/off switch with a single tap. Pressing and holding the footswitch engages the MASH expression control, allowing you to dynamically control various delay parameters depending on the selected TonePrint.

6. Operating the Flashback 2 Mini
6.1 Osnovna operacija
To activate the delay effect, simply tap the MASH footswitch. The LED indicator will illuminate. Tap it again to bypass the effect. Adjust the DELAY, F.BACK, and LEVEL knobs to shape your desired delay sound.
6.2 MASH Footswitch Functionality
The MASH footswitch offers pressure-sensitive expression control. While the effect is active, press and hold the footswitch with varying pressure to dynamically control a specific parameter of the delay. The parameter controlled by MASH is determined by the selected TonePrint. For example, MASH can control delay time, feedback, modulation, or other effects.
6.3 TonePrint Feature
TonePrint allows you to load custom delay sounds created by TC Electronic and famous artists, or design your own using the free TonePrint Editor software. To load a TonePrint:
- Download the free TC Electronic TonePrint App for your smartphone or the TonePrint Editor for your computer.
- Using the app, select a TonePrint and 'beam' it to your pedal by holding your phone's speaker near your guitar pickup.
- Alternatively, connect the pedal to your computer via the USB port and use the TonePrint Editor software to load or create custom sounds.
6.4 Delay Algorithms
The Flashback 2 Mini features a range of high-quality delay algorithms, including new Tape and Analog algorithms for classic delay tones, and Crystal Delay algorithms based on the Sub'n'Up Octaver for unique, shimmering effects.
6.5 Bypass Modes (True Bypass / Buffered Bypass)
The pedal offers switchable bypass modes: True Bypass and Buffered Bypass. True Bypass ensures that your signal remains completely unaltered when the pedal is off, while Buffered Bypass provides a strong, clean signal over long cable runs. The bypass mode can typically be switched via an internal dip switch or through the TonePrint Editor software. Refer to the TonePrint Editor documentation for specific instructions on changing the bypass mode.
7. Vzdrževanje
- Pedal vzdržujte čist tako, da ga obrišete z mehko, suho krpo. Izogibajte se uporabi abrazivnih čistil ali topil.
- Pedal shranjujte v suhem okolju, stran od ekstremnih temperatur in vlage.
- Ensure all cables are securely connected during use and disconnected when not in use to prevent accidental damage.
8. Odpravljanje težav
- Ni zvoka: Check all cable connections. Ensure the power supply is correctly connected and functioning. Verify that your ampZvočnik je vklopljen in njegova glasnost je povečana.
- Šibek ali popačen zvok: Check cable integrity. Ensure the power supply provides the correct voltage (9V DC) and polarity (center-negative). Adjust the LEVEL knob on the pedal.
- Pedal Not Turning On: Confirm the power supply is connected and working. Try a different power outlet or power supply.
- MASH Footswitch Not Responding: Ensure the pedal is powered on and the effect is active. If using a custom TonePrint, verify that MASH control is assigned to a parameter within the TonePrint Editor.
- TonePrint Transfer Issues: Ensure your smartphone speaker is placed directly over your guitar pickup for beaming. For USB connection, ensure the correct drivers are installed and the TonePrint Editor software is up to date.
