Delay pedal Question

[flavaham]

I'm looking at some different delay pedals and I want to know specifically if they will continue to repeat after switching off, like if I want to just apply echo to one note.

The pedals are the Strymon Timeline, Empress SDVM, and Eventide Time Factor.

Thanks!

Not sure about the Empress or Eventide, but the Timeline you can set it for trails.

Also not sure about those units, but having the trails often means it is buffered I think.

You question doesn't make sense. If you apply delay to one note, then turn on dalay, play the note, turn off delay, play more notes. The delay will only be applied to that one note.

Are you asking will the copies of that one note (i.e. the trails) continue after you turn off the delay?

Not necessarily. The TC FlashBack is a great example of that for a digital unit.

Haha, yes, that's what I'm asking.

The TC has to have the buffer switch turned on for trails.
