Greaaaaaaaaaaaat! I have been thinking about getting the Plus Pedal for months, but it's so expensive, this is just the perfect solution. I have the Flashback, Hall of fame, Spark, Ditto and Viscous Vibe, and I couldn't be happier with the quality of all of them, keep it up guys, you are the best pedal company ever :)

[@jasonbelldata]

100% - I've been so close to getting one for the Chapman Stick, but this is just was what I was waiting for.

[@robertclarkguitar]

This is why I love the me80. Freeze function. Now when I build my actual pedal board I'll pick one of these. I need volume pedal and freeze function. Beautiful.

[@alexleech4490]

Pair this with HOF2, FB2, and Ditto = absolute weapon!!

[@SomeKindOfMadman]

SweetWater just got it in stock, I got the notice, I made the purchase just now. I’ve been waiting for it here in the US with bated breath. I look forward to getting it in a week or so. Thanks TC for this cool pedal!

[@bluesnaggletooth1660]

What did you think of it?

[@samwisegrangee]

As a long time user of both the freeze and the plus pedal, congrats. This looks like a great offering that will help more people bring background drones, sustained tones, layers and textures into their playing. 👏🏼

[@pipapoo]

Hey Samuel, would you mind sharing your opinion on the freeze and plus? Which one do you prefer and why?

[@samwisegrangee]

@@pipapoo the Plus Pedal is better 10% of the time. The ability to go fully wet for swells and to stack chords on top of each other is beautiful and inspiring. You can control how fast it comes in, how fast it leaves, and tone or number of layers very simply. Additionally, the ability to clear layers or half the volume with the pedal pressure is very intuitive. Finally, there’s an FX loop so you can put whatever pedal you want in there to affect the drone note or the layers you’re sustaining. The Freeze can’t do any of that. But again, the Freeze does what I need it to do 90% of the time, and it has other benefits: 1. Smaller footprint, 2. Much cheaper, 3. Simplicity, fast, slow, latch, blend: that’s it (so you’ll spend more time playing rather than tinkering with your gear). Just note that EHX has replaced the original clicky footswitch with a soft switch so you don’t get any click when laying in your pad. So buy new or be sure to inquire of used sellers if it has that. Regardless of culture-Tuvan throat singing, aboriginal didgeridoo, Byzantine chant, Scottish bagpipes, Indian ragas-all music began has biphony: a drone and a melody. Thus, I think every guitarist should have a sustainer for practice alone: it’s such a “game changer” (pun intended) to hold chords and find different how your notes and voicings find their place in that harmonic context.

[@pipapoo]

@@samwisegrangee Thanks alot for the extensive answer 🙏🏻

[@HughMannFace]

Will this beauty be coming to the Plethora X5?

[@gcvrsa]

So, I first thought, this looks really cool. Then I thought maybe it wasn't so useful. Now I'm thinking it's even cooler than I first thought.

[@BrockDavisson]

Looks like a nice EHX Superego / Superego+ killer... but it don't seem to have the thing I like the most from the superego pedals which is the auto freeze mode, unless I missed it. May have to try this one sometime!

[@zbqb84a]

I love my superego, but the included reverb and overall size of this pedal are super appealing.

[@Merlincat007]

Yeah I'd love to get my mind changed on that if there is auto triggering. But I'm not hopeful since TC always miss an obvious feature or two.

I would love this on my Plethora. You could make some amazing ambient boards or just some very cool sounding guitar soundscapes. 2 HOF's, 2 Flashbacks+Infinite for an outer space vibe. A HOF, Pipeline, Corona+ Infinite for a kind of neo surf vibe A Subn Up, Helix, Flanger/Viscous Vibe, Looper+ Infinite for making guitar sound scapes. It just has to be on there. It would be amazing

[@thaddeusgreear4661]

Will these be on the next Plethora firmware?

[@the_friendly_shirt]

When will this be featured on the plethora x5?

[@stevehillock3162]

Infinite Sample Sustainer > ISS > International Space Station. Not sure if this was intentional but the resulting sounds quite match! Hey TC if you read this : we BASSISTS need a Toneprint dedicated drive pedal with clean blend. I've tested your Mojo and Dark Matter but they lose quite a bit of low end and have no possibility to mix the clean signal which for a lot of us is a NO GO. Would be great to have a 3in1 overdrive / Distortion /Fuzz with the toggle switch. Thanks!

[@DavidEidelberg]

Will this be added to the Plethora?

[@paull8678]

I just ordered one of these, and it's on its way. Can't wait to start experimenting with it!!

[@BHAKTIBROPHY]

I love TC and Electroharmonix (been using EHX since 1980; TC since 1990s). This pedal is similar to the EHX FREEZE pedal, but took it 100,000 miles forward.

[@JohnOhkumaThiel]

I’ve been a musician all my life, but guitarist only two years and change. So far, every pedal I choose other than the Ibanez tube screamer, is tc electronic. I’ve tried the BOSS pedals, I always compare when I shop, and BOSS does the job, but the tc electronic effects have heart.

[@That52TeleGuy]

Ok, got this pedal and really trying to figure it out. Only a “Quick Start” button instruction sheet available in box and online. Searched for a product manual, nothing. Thought mine was defective until spending way too much time to figure things out. Not everyone one is part of the video culture, guess we are forced to be. Not crazy about this one, may go back.

[@Fabian5150]

@@adamberg8546 Would be cool, but I don't think they'd do it, because they're only adding pedals from their toneprint series, not from the chunky pedals like the crescendo.

[@makingmusiconline2309]

@@Fabian5150 that's right. The Plethora is, effectively, five Tone Print engines. The Crescendo, Cinders etc. are (mostly) analog pedals (and the chunky range are mostly tuned Behringer plastic pedals put in a metal box, with a few component changes to improve the sound, or at least that's what Tore said!)

[@Merlincat007]

Yep. It would have been cool if we could have chosen between using the 2nd set of jacks for either Stereo operation or for the FX Loop. But TC never seem to take the next logical step with any pedal, unfortunately. Luckily there is the Hologram Microcosm which freezes in stereo among a million other beautiful things. It is expensive but imo very worth it as the only stereo granular/glitch pedal I know, plus a ton of looping, reverb, filter, delay, and more options, and presets!

[@mrbaiser4133]

Is it possible to make a toneprint that just uses the reverb, but no sustain effect?

[@makingmusiconline2309]

Do the built-in reverb and modulation only apply to the sustained signal, or to the "dry" signal coming through when playing over the sustained sound? Or is it set in the TonePrint app? From the video it sounds like the external FX loop only applies to the sustained sound, is that right?

[@paulscott6134]

You can setup the reverb to be on justthe sustain signal, just the dry signal, or both via the TonePrint App. You can also decide if it's always active or just when you actvate the sustain effect. The external FX LOOP is only active in the sustain signal, for creative sound design ;)

[@741246]

Hmmm... Hooking this up with my MD500 in the loop seems interesting... Put slicer, leslie or tremelo on the sustained note/reverb must have lots of potential

[@makingmusiconline2309]

Great idea! Of course (I believe) this is only mono with mono send/return, so you'll lose the stereo leslie ... you *could* split the send though, send it to the MD500 and also back to the return, and then mix the stereo output of the MD500 back in later in your signal flow ....

Love the purpose of this pedal, but I have some questions: 1. If you’re running the Infinite pedal in an effects loop, should it go before or after a delay pedal? 2. When I hear sustain, I can’t help but think of a sustainer pickup, similar to what comes on a Jackson PC-1. Does the pedal provide that capability to make the note similar to a sustainer pickup?

Can the send/return be used as a stereo through? Seems like an "end of chain effect" that us stereo rig users would want to pass stereo mod or delay through before it hits a reverb.

[@phenixreturns]

EHX has one for years

[@makingmusiconline2309]

@@phenixreturns I have the Freeze pedal, this does a fair bit more than the Freeze. It has most of a Hall of Fame reverb in there, plus modulation such as a Through Zero Flanger, it can control the amount of signal sent out to the FX Loop and the amount that comes back from the FX Loop, and it can apply the built in reverb to the Dry signal, even when you don't have a sustained sound. Also you can stack 1, 2, 3 or infinite samples, and so, if you are stacking three sounds, when you add a fourth, the first sound goes away, so you can do chord triads and keep modulating through them as two notes from the previous chord are held when you add the new one on top.

[@BrockDavisson]

@@makingmusiconline2309 You can do that kind of stuff with EHX Superego and Superego+ if you want the effects. But the cool thing about the T.C pedal is you can save different variations of it with the toneprint app etc.
