Does anyone make a micro/mini pedal delay with tap functionality or tap input? Haven't had any luck finding one. Wishful thinking here?
tc electronic Flashback Mini does a version of tap tempo that sort of works, depending on your needs.
Oh wow, I'm checking that out now. TC keeps making really cool stuff on the cheap. "Audio Tapping Hold down the footswitch and set delay time by simply strumming your guitar!" seriously? I'm really curious now how well this works. Sounds too good to be true.
Well, the Good News is it works as advertised: Just wack your muted strings two or three times to generate clicks while holding down the footswitch and it calculates the delay time as well as any Tap Tempo footswitch I've ever used. The Bad News is it mutes the audio -- both effected and dry -- while you are performing this "audio tapping". So you can't set delay times on the fly in the middle of a tune, you have to do it during a rest or in between tunes.
Oh... that's strange. Thanks for the heads up Bob. So... I guess you would have to keep your foot on it between songs and set the tempo when the drummer clicks you in, then release right when the song starts.
I've wanted a Cusack Tiny Tap Delay for some time, but you've got to have it in a switcher's loop 'cause it's an always-on pedal. Not as small as the TCE Flashback, and even less so if you consider you need a separate tap-input pedal – but that shouldn't be a problem if you've got several pedals that require some form of a tap input and have a master tap-tempo pedal for them. So, Cusack may be a good solution for those with a master tap-tempo and loop-switcher, but a poor solution for a less elaborate setup.
