tc 2290 pedal coming tomorrow..

[la szum]

I may have said they're a bit metallic on some algo's at times, but no I generally really like it. I'm a bigger fan of the Flashback II. I've got the X4 of each of them, and I'm considering selling them to get a Plethora X3.

Also, only my wife and my mum call me Andy. How dare you.

I agree. I pretty much keep the Tone control always under 12:00. It's a cool pedal.

Tell Mum I said, "Hi!"

Y’all know @2112 will be the first one here to obtain one.

It's probably either the 2290 mode from the Flashback or the 2290 plugin ported into a pedal. If it expands on the original with some new features, like the BOSS SDE-3000 pedal, that would be cool. Not exactly holding my breath though.

"IF"it is as good as the rack this will kill everything.

Sounds like a Flashback...

You will need it in front of you to make any comparison.

Looks pretty cool.

Looks pretty cool. Like the EVH SDE-3000 pedal from a few months ago, I'm a bit suspicious of them invoking a sought after model name for a new product. Is it effectively the 2290 algo from the flashback with a retro interface, or is it a faithful recreation of the circuit and converter technology of the original 2290?

Clearly not this, or they would have screamed it from the rooftops in the launch...
Demos so far sounds about as exiting as an Ikea bookshelf.

But no reference point so how can you draw a conclusion? Could just be poor demos and most are.

Sounds dull as heck in every demo so far . Mike Hermans is very consistent, and has other delay demos that sounds much better.

This is Behringer after all, not the t.c.electronics we used to know.

until I a/b it with the original I will reserve judgment .

I'll hold out for good comparisons, but I can't say I think it will hold up to an original in any way.

 

[paisleywookiee]

Yup. I have one. I use it on my board.

I was just kind of bagging on the critics of the HOF2. Weren't you one of them, Andy?

Don't make me go and look.

I am. I had the FB2 and HoF2, and couldn't sell them fast enough. It was one of those things where people raved about them online, so I bought them, and was utterly disappointed.

Calling a single knob a keyboard is a bit much. I get you can't fit the keypad on a pedal but at least call it something like "parameter value" instead.

The keypad was the one nice design thing on the original 2290.

The old rack unit was in a league of it's own.

Why does it seem half the gear promos today require a dude dressed up in something silly like pointy shoes and a scarf?

Oh yeah I know. I was talking about the Flashback 2 and Hall of Fame 2 pedals. I hated them. Not because they were terrible, but because they were so thoroughly mediocre in relation to the hype/praise. IMHO, YMMV, and all that.

Half the stuff I get from Ikea sounds like a good idea at the time, then I end up putting it out on the curb a year later

Hipster clickbait.

And don't get me started about thumbnail faces...

What’s the significance of the 2290? Who used it what records, associated with a genre, etc.?
