HOLD MY NOTE! TC Electronic Infinite Review

[@WingManEight]

I'd love to dig these freeze pedals more if they included a stereo pan ability: you play, freeze let's say on the Rigtht, then it lets you play on the Left while the Right decays, then you freeze the Left, and it lets you play on the Right again... Complicated to explain but simple thing. The demo was killer as always. Cheers !

[@elyssa.c90]

Yeah. Rather than having send/return, they should have put stereo ins/outs on it. What good is an ambient soundscape that doesn't hover around your ears? I know, most guitar rigs will be in mono, but so many other TC pedals have stereo out, so why not this one? Or, give us two outs, one is mono, the other can be made stereo with a TRS cable. Like some Strymon pedals do. So that we can have the ambience hovering in stereo, while the thing we play on top is in mono and "sits" in the center of the ambience.

[@leefradkin9077]

Have it, now I know how to use it!😂. Thank you Henning!

[@ixis99]

Always welcome to know there are more sustain fx out there. Thanks for your review. 😊

[@Mike6StringsIn]

Thank you for this in depth explanation of this pedal. I was on the fence whether I could use it or not but just didn’t have enough demonstrated use. Well done sir.

[@carpediem4413]

Was skeptical if this would work well... but it does… LOVE my TC Infinite pedal !!! Very natural sounding once you get used to the timing of the capture.. actually super easy to use and get great sustaining notes/chords. I prefer the natural modulation this pedal provides over the synthetic drone of the EHX Freeze. Another nice feature of the Infinite: you can keep Reverb on your dry signal (after you stop the sustain effect) if you set it up in Toneprint under Routing>Input to Reverb Always (0.0db). My favorite noodling and practicing pedal. Would be perfect if they had an expression pedal input, stereo pan and maybe MIDI. The ability to completely shape your tone with TonePrint put this pedal way above the competition IMO.

[@M_C79]

You answered my question (about the reverb always on), thanks!

[@liamtahaney713]

Damn, that schecter sounds amazing too

[@peterschaefer1665]

I would love to hear it theough EH Mel9 pedal!!

[@mobiledaw1436]

Lots of glitchy fun if the note is milliseconds late to take advantage of the warbling. My ehx ring thing sounds great in the fx loop.

[@mariannewijnensanderdekr-me5cm]

This pedal is availble in the tone print app. Very nice pedal.

[@T1GWBJAH]

Damnit Henning! Soon as you showed the killdry toneprint i instantly clicked the link and bought one from thomann 😂 your videos have sold me on many pedals over the years

[@jonathanbennett4535]

Ordered one today, your video and demo and plating have sold it to me. I love loopers, this is just something else. Maybe I can figure out a looper and TC infinite pedal together… thanks again…

[@brianmi40]

Just ordered one also, you might want to pick up a DADGAD 3 string capo for some different uses: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZ2vfaqtbtSGZpo

[@Stikbomz]

Boss slicer in the loop. Hours of fun.

[@Sevetamryn]

For me, that's TS's take on the EHX Superego / Superego Plus - at a very good price and much smaller real estate requirements on the board ... not bad TS ... I may check this out as a replacement for my Superego.

[@nedim_guitar]

I don't really see this as similar to the Superego+. Then again, I don't know much about that pedal either, other than I've seen in demos. It feels like the Superego+ has many more functions.

[@Sevetamryn]

@@nedim_guitar That's the 1st "infinit sustainer" i see that has a very similar concept to Superego. Ofc, there are differences, but the concept to have effects in a sustainer loop is very rare on the market beside EHX and this one. I like the stacking and fade in (what EHX does not have). I miss the wet/dry mix that EHX has.

[@alexdenton6586]

For those interested TC Electronic has released a pedal that combines, I believe, the majority of their pedals into one with multiple footswitches. I recently ordered it and it's amazing for having many pedals in a practical format.

[@Mesa3077Boogie]

Does it do tri chorus?

[@alexdenton6586]

@@Mesa3077Boogie Yes Corona Chorus , offering tri chorus and classic chorus That’s probably the best pedal I’ve encountered in a while All their effects in one Not some cheap multi effects pedal

[@alexdenton6586]

@@Mesa3077Boogie Here’s what I found on internet if you want to get a better idea of it : The TC Electronic Plethora X5 is a multi-effects pedalboard that includes a wide range of effects from TC Electronic's popular TonePrint series. Here's a list of some of the main effects available in the Plethora X5: 1.Reverb: Hall of Fame 2 Reverb, providing various types of reverb such as hall, spring, plate, and more. 2.Delay: Flashback 2 Delay, featuring multiple delay types like tape, analog, and digital. 3.Chorus: Corona Chorus, offering different chorus effects such as tri-chorus and classic chorus. 4.Flanger: Vortex Flanger, with flange effects like tape flange and through-zero flange. 5.Phaser: Helix Phaser, which includes a range of phaser effects. 6.Vibrato: Shaker Vibrato, featuring vibrato effects with different rates and depths. 7.Tremolo: Pipeline Tremolo, offering various tremolo effects with customizable waveforms. 8.Octaver: Sub 'N' Up Octaver, providing polyphonic octave effects for adding upper and lower octaves. 9.Compressor: HyperGravity Compressor, a multi-band compressor for dynamic control. 10.Overdrive: MojoMojo Overdrive, offering smooth overdrive tones. 11.Distortion: Dark Matter Distortion, featuring a range of distortion effects for various music styles. In addition to these effects, the Plethora X5 also allows you to create and store TonePrint presets, customize the signal chain, and assign effects to individual footswitches. Keep in mind that firmware updates may add or modify the effects available in the pedal.

I do love this pedal, but if I had known about the John Petrucci version at the time I would have purchased that one. Neat little device.

[@jpk1106]

A Petrucci Sustainer Pedal?

[@jpk1106]

@@bibby42 thats a Chorus, flanger and Vibrato. No Sustainer, but its great

[@bibby42]

@@jpk1106 Ahh, looks exactly the same and came up recommended for me because I bought this sustainer. So, I assumed lol 😊

[@al-dudeduderino7000]

Do you hear also a „warble“ in the sound? Is the warble very present and disturbing? How is the sound compared to the freeze pedal?

[@dionr1168]

But how does this sound with a humbucker-into-5150 High Gain tone?

[@PooNinja]

Now that what I call a mini looper, ambiance expanderer ,soundscapes suspenders, scale practice, or just ring out through infinity 🤘🏽

[@metalex1708]

Somewhere in the middle I got lost following modes and options, but nice soundscapes 🤪

[@laotsefab]

hello, i sing and play electric guitar in a power trio band. my bass player just stopped. my drummer can't play with along my looper. is it the solution for soloing with for exemple freezing a note with an octaver. maybe it's easier than a looper in live situation?

[@mrlionel1965]

This is a fun looking pedal. I need one of these.

[@joesatchton212]

Love to see this versus a Freeze....

[@carpediem4413]

The Infinite samples the actual note and adds a touch of modulation (which I prefer). The Freeze creates a synthetic drone note with no modulation and sounds a bit artificial IMO. The Toneprint of the Infinite and added features puts this head and shoulders above the competition including the Gamechanger Plus.

[@michaelgallegos8811]

Thats funny Henning the coffe mug ! Glenn is wrong 😂

[@wimjacobs4075]

Fwiw, I do find it in the Toneprint app on my phone.

[@slesher84]

Prity cool pedal. there is already a desire to do experiments with output delay

[@Gregabalese]

This seems like a cool thing to make some affects, but I find the continuous sound of one note sounds a little like a "drone: and I could not take it for long. But cool none the less.

[@Mesa3077Boogie]

Dripping sweet nectar filled pads

[@marcomostroso]

TP for my bunghole! No one get's it when I do that joke, you are the best man hahahahahaha

[@Orschd]

Is there ANY pedal out there, that works exactly like a Sustainiac?

[@T1GWBJAH]

Not exactly a pedal but an ebow is probaly the closest but limited to one string at a time

[@nedim_guitar]

I could probably use this pedal... 🤔

[@Mesa3077Boogie]

Really cool bro

[@fritsvanzanten3573]

The name made me think it was a(nother) delay pedal (with a lot of buckets).

[@jameshoward1955]

The infinite is definitely in the android app

[@CarlosFerrari-h9b]

😊😊😊😊😊

[@michaelgallegos8811]

Henning what do we have here today ?🤔

[@TimLerchGuitar]

Unfortunately an out of tune guitar played into a sustaining device just prolongs the agony : )

[@EytschPi42]

Can’t do more than tune it

[@666thsense]

the only reason i wont buy this pedal is because it puts that stupid shimmer warble sound on the hold. why can't it just hold solid like the freeze without the awful tone suck.

[@MichaelSchuerig]

As far as I can tell, all of these pedals have an obtrusive tremolo on the sustained sound. For my taste, that makes them unfortunately unusable.

[@terryenglish7132]

Can't a looper do the same thing ?

[@kainagami]

No.

[@SkogliJotunn]

Generally no. Unless they have a specific "freeze type" parameter.

[@kainagami]

@@SkogliJotunn name a looper with that function. Would be crazy if there is one out in the wild

[@sebastian_meier]

[@Dwoed]

Use a looper instead😊

[@michaelgallegos8811]

I dont know what i would use this for?@ home stuff,intro or spacy stoner mood i guess, pink floyd vibe stuff,I t is cool very ambient sounding. I suppose it has its place in a production i suppose nice toy thanks Henning. 🎸🎛🍺
