Zoom MS-70CDR vs. TC Electronic Flashback 2 - In-Depth Delay Shoot-Out!
Channel: Oscillator Sink
Date: 2020-10-22

The Zoom MS-70CDR is a multi-fx pedal that you see on the table of many a synth jammer - and for good reason: it's cheap, wildly flexible and sounds pretty good. But offering such a wide range of effects, is it a Jack-of-all-Trades, but a master of none? 

In this video I put it up against a similarly priced, dedicated delay pedal: the TC Electronic Flashback 2, compare the features and sounds, and discuss how these two pedals offer two different forms of flexibility in your synth rig.
