Flashback Delay vs Supa Puss Delay

Hey guys. I have been rocking the TC Flashback and I think it is an awesome delay with tons of features. The reverse setting is fun to play with, it can be used as a great looper, and it has huge delay times. Being the effect nut that I am though I always think about something I might like better.
