Retro-Sonic Flanger review

Bjorn’s playing makes this pedal sound better than it is.
It’s not even close to the original and quite dull sounding.

Niewiarygodnie,dzięki za ciekawe info Bjorn oraz przepiękną grę

So much love for retrosonic over the years, this is just a confirmation.

It sounds awesome... May I ask which delay setting on the Flashback? Just the analog or the tape, the last one has quite a bit of modulation by itself.

You still got it Bjorn really lovely lush tones here

Reeeeallly interesting! But how does this pedal compare to the mooer elec-lady?

I'm primarily a humbucker guy, but that Strat sounds so excellent. Lean and clean. A great starting point platform to shape. onto the greater canvas.

Great video and playing, sounds amazing. In your opinion, between the Retro-Sonic Flanger and the Mooer E-Lady which do you think sounds closer to David Gilmour's Electric Mistress tone.

Fantastic tone B. There is a pair of Celestion V30 speakers for sale near me but in an open backed cab, would there be much difference in tone?

You just can NOT achieve the vintage EM sound, as the BBD delay chip has long been obsolete, even before when EHX released the 24V deluxe version. Actually the BBD chip used in DEM again has been discontinued. MN3207, which this pedal uses, is like the stock bbd chip in many analog flanger. I will just stay with mooer.

Sounded amazing, great guitar player ❤️

Awesome demo Bjorn. Do you plan to do a new flanger shootout video?

Such great sounds in this video. I watched it a couple of days ago, and had to come back to hear it again today. Thanks Bjorn!

Great demo Bjorn. Lovely playing and tones :) Do you know how this pedal compares to the Hartman Flanger?

Boy, I would love that backing track :) Excellent playing as always, Bjorn.

Yep. Like it

Very nice. I'll stick with my Mooer E-Lady and Subdecay Starlight flangers for now, but this is a lovely sounding, almost "warm" flange sound - not an adjective one usually associates with Mistress style flangers (maybe it's the warmth of Björn that I'm hearing :) )

Awesome demo! Can you also get Van Halen tones with this flanger? Or is it mostly an EM clone?

Bjorn, please I need your help. I’m trying to figure out what guitar pick is David’s go to. If there isn’t one, I’d like to know which one he used for the pulse concerts. Thanks and great vids!

If our pedals don't sound that good, we will send them to you, you can make 'em sound great!
Great playing...
That one seems really promising for a flanger!

I bought one and am really digging it. I have a 18V EM and have always loved the sound but the clock noise is bad. This one is definitely the closest I’ve found to my original and will be using this from now on. Tim did a great job with this flanger.

Flanger Ordered! Thank you for the wonderful demo. Any chance of uploading this backing track to Gilmourish?

Very cool tones, Bjorn! Thanks!

Amazing!!!

just love this new flanger by retrosonic, this is a must have pedal!!!! thanks for your amazing work through all this years Bjorn; cheers from Mexico

Nice tones!

Hey Bjorn,

Great video!

If money isn't an issue, which one would you place on your pedalboard between a Retro-Sonic and a Mooer ElecLady?

Thanks!

Brit Floyd Animals Red Rocks ! The new Deluxe Electric Mistress drops volume .

Beautiful tone and playing

So finally got this. Great pedal! Loving it. Between this, phase 90 RI, boss ce2 have modulation covers!

Fantastico grandissimo bravissimo Come si chiama questa canzone il titolo pf

torn between this and the boss bf-3. anyone have any insight into how they compare?

very tasty playing

Tasteful playing and killer flanging sounds !

Hi Bjorn! How does this compare with the Hartman Flanger (which I have)? Is it worth checking it out over it or is it just splitting hairs? Did not care for the Moer though it works well for some stuff, the Hartman is just so natural and sweet...Thanks for all you do! You're an inspiration every time I tune in...

Do you find this flanger to be very noisy?

Did you run the Big Muff before or after the flanger? Thanks!

Where do you get your shirts?

Did that guitar start out it's life as an Eric Johnson Strat?
I am currently converting a black EJ Strat (non-bound neck) into a Gilmour Strat!

How the hell a Gilmour fanatic would use v30 speakers?? They're the most brittle harsh thing you could use as speakers.

Original or reissue green Russian here? Great tone 👍👍👍

I love that bound fretboard, is it actually a Fender? I'm building a Strat currently, i just did one last year that i used a one piece alder body that took me months to source a blank large enough, light enough to make the body out of, and i made the neck from a maple leg from a bed post of 160 year old bed. I started this one almost immediately after playing the Eric Johnson Virgina 54 Strat.
I was planning on using either Korina or mahogany, i played one built by a friend of what was essentially a '59 replica but with Korina, and loved how balance it was, however the Sassafras body the new EJ comes in is as close to the "perfect" strat tone that's been on my head for a decade.
I don't want to build the neck from scratch this time though. Id LOVE a Rosewood fretboard with binding, but those choices are slim.. i won't use Warmoth, i got into a customer service problem with them a decade ago and they were so damn arrogant that i swore never again, plus i find USACG to make a better product, but they don't do binding on the fretboard, and even if i used Warmoth, they only do them for their "modern" necks. I don't want a 22 fret, and i don't like how the double action truss rod and the different routing does to the tone. I could buy a used Eric Johnson RW neck or possibly one of the 60s Jazzmaster necks that used binding, but I'm not paying $600-700 for a neck.

Do you have a Patreon?

Just got this delivered. An amazing pedal.

Thank you

Is this better than the Camoflange at Gilmore /Summers/life son/Pretenders tones?

Nice! Is the filter switch up or down here? Thank you
