Use the

DELAY TYPE SELECTOR

to choose the type of delay you

want to work with. The Flashback X4 Delay & Looper offers a
wide range of delays – from classic tape delays to the pristine
sound of a TC 2290.
The delay types are described on page 7.
When you choose a delay type, the chosen delay type will “pick
up” the current positions of the delay control knobs (for example

DELAY TIME

). However, if you choose a preset and turn one of the

delay control knobs, nothing will change except for that one, spe-
cific parameter.

The slots “1”, “2”, “3” and “4” of the Delay Type Selector are
“placeholders” for TonePrints. The Flashback X4 Delay & Looper
comes equipped with the following default TonePrints:

– Delay TonePrint by Steve Morse

– Basic Delay TonePrint by Bumblefoot

– Basic Delay TonePrint by Doug Aldrich

– Synth Delay by James “Munky” Shaffer
The TonePrint concept is explained in detail on page 14.
