Best Electro-Harmonix Electric Mistress tones? PastFX Reticon, Elastic Mattress, RetroSonic Flanger

In this video we want to find out how the recent Electro-Harmonix Electric Mistress inspired pedals by Retro-Sonic and PastFX stack up against my vintage original from 1978.

All the pedals are powered by an isolated power supply and they are located each in individual loops of the two Remote Loopy 2 units. The signal is always buffered by a Grumpy Bot buffer.
