[@XiXora]

Nice to see engineers presenting their hard work!

[@allanbedford3030]

After watching the video, here's my take: Even though I don't *need* this pedal, I *want* this pedal. I'd say that highlights both the clever design and the straightforward marketing. Nicely done TC Electronics :)

[@SteveResor]

TC ROCKS ! What a Awesome pedal. So many pedals in such a small foot print and They sound Amazing !

[@MarkCoffin]

I'll say it again. It's a wonderful time to be a guitar player. Thank you TC!

[@TimOost]

Wow! Apart from all the amazing stuff in the X3 the IRs included will make this so perfect for a pedalboard only rig! Saves me another additional pedal

[@MrJaapdeboer]

this looks amazing. I was interested, but then they brought out the looper and tuner. Consider me hooked!

[@HerrMeier007]

Grab a pedaltrain Nano, put one of these on top, add a dual sided overdrive and a micro fuzz and you can probably cover mostly any show and might even be able to fit all of this in the little add on bag that comes with a lot of gig bags. Amazing Product already!

[@gcvrsa]

I'm glad to see tc electronic took my advice and made the Plethora X3. :D

[@StavK]

This looks really nice and practical 👍(love the three pedal style knobs)

[@Jimmyjames738]

This thing looks incredible. Amazing work legends ✌️

[@michivanhalen7086]

I want a Pletora X1!

[@aaronshortmusic]

Very cool and makes a lot of sense in this form factor!

[@anjorg70]

I love the Plethora X3 embroidery on the desk in front of Lars at 3:45-3:47 (ok, admitted, my wife made it - from the original font specifications of the fonts used in PX3 and PX5 :-) )

[@BAJOPRACTICALeoDaniele]

Beautiful!!!! 🔥🔥👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Blimey ..The Boys from Brazil ..

[@MrJackrockerman]

Thanks TC Electronics team..

[@markpickardlife]

Looks cool! I love TC.

[@Ewald_93]

I did not know that christian trebbien is now a part of tc. I was a big fan of his whitesnake covers on youtube. That’s so cool!

[@TrebbienGuitar]

Cheers brother🤟🏼🤟🏼🍻

[@larsfrederiksen3005]

And that's the primary reason he was hired! That and his awesome hair! 😉

[@Ewald_93]

He is basically the reason why I got a Kramer Pacer Custom because there were no other good videos with that guitar available haha. Rock on guys, I will play my flashback delay till I die!

[@telezonika-mg]

What an amazing pedal! TC Electronic you did it again!! I will make a review of this. Just one more thing, using compressor and delays make complicated to add to another fx chain. Greetings.

[@reidbennett3586]

What I really like about this is that I enjoy the spectacle and tactile experience of analog gear, but the optional convenience and endless possibilities of digital gear. I can use presets if I desire, or I can twist knobs for crazy delay and modulation real time adjustments, or I can do both! Perfect for this unit to have all the mod and time effects without the distortion and fuzzes, which many guitar players such as myself lack interest having in a multieffect. It really keeps the clutter out of menu based navigation. I am picky about those distortion sounds and I have the pedals/amps that I like, and I rarely touch them after they're set besides turning them off and on.

[@nobelsofficial5766]

Best regards from the Nobels team!

[@joconnorwi]

love it!

[@figure5-114]

okay this is so cool, it's like all in good pedal in that box nice

[@CBGypsy03]

Just ordered one ! Got the last one in Canada I'm pretty sure. Can't wait to try it out. 😋

[@runorwalk15]

TC ROCKS!

[@LarryC-stratboy]

Would be a great self contained living room practice rig if it had a headphone jack. My wife laughs at me when I come downstairs with guitar, headphones, amp pedal (amp in a pedal) and three or four pedals and a wad of patch cables and power cables. I regret selling my Boss GT-100 when I'm plugging my "temp" rig together on the coffee table. LOL. Was hoping the Plethora would be like the GT-100 with a smaller footprint. Having typed all that, I will say TC Electronic has great platform cooking with the Plethora.

[@surefair8]

Amazing!

[@paulweyer4339]

Very cool. Got to play the x5 and was very pleased but this seems much more manageable to incorporate into my personal rig

[@jdoblesentido]

Goo job! Is it buffered?

[@zynthio]

PLEASE add the infinite to the plethora. I love my x3, but the infinite is the TC pedal I have wanted the most

[@SmoothToast39]

I was wondering will there ever be a toneprint envelope filter style pedal?

[@moonglimmers]

Nice work Gentleman.

[@marco.savini.128]

you know what i really need? a plethora x1 without sacrificing full midi capability, it would be the ultimate small pedalboard swiss knife

[@tasoskapralos7859]

Can't wait to see a review on bass!

[@TheSlimDude]

Check out reviews for the X5. This is just a smaller version of that. I love the X5 for bass.

[@jesterraj]

cARIBBEAN GUY HERE . ILIKE!!!!

[@swardmusic]

Does the looper have a dedicated STOP switch? Looks great guys 👍🏻👍🏻

[@FloridaManMatty]

I am unfamiliar with the Tone Print app/editor. Is that available for newer iPhones? If so, I just found the answer to last minute fly gigs! I LOVE my G system after all these years, but it takes up a lot of space. The X-3 and a little Dunlop mini Cryaby would be a gift from God!

[@pastaway3620]

Magnifull!!!🥰🥰🥰

[@whiskybravo4648]

Heck yeah!

[@scottadkins328]

Can you route the effects pre and post gain?

[@ozmusic3035]

Cool finally the only thing we don't get with the Plethora is the Documentation hahahaha 🙂

[@gonzalo836]

It looks really really good, and I got a Nobels too!

[@jacekfz99]

does it support momentary vs latch mode for the effects? i didn't see any support for momentary mode, unlike the Line 6 HX

[@flynn_22]

does the hall of fame on the plethora have full dry full wet setting

[@jayrejuso2095]

TC Rocks!

[@Voorneman]

I guess this would be perfect for synths too!

[@BracliCreations]

Happy player of my X5, no complaints

[@Fabian5150]

This x3 looks super cute, I might have to buy one just because of its cuteness, even though I already have an x5 which I love by the way! Good work! :))

[@DuckDuckGo512]

HAs it got an AUX In or Headphones Out?

[@32shumble]

Another multi-effects pedal - great!

[@nagelviolin]

I'm interested in this multi-effects!, but above all because of the Harmonizer Quintessence... my question is if it has all the functions that the pedal alone?

[@silent-sand]

can you set the delay in bpm with the toneprint editor? for plethora series

[@EndlngAnthem]

Gotta ask in comparison to a roland srv 2000, can the plethora XC provide similar sound and capability? IE can it do the welcome to the jungle intro settings?

[@RileySullivan]

Dear Santa Clause, I’ve been a good boy this year.

[@lakshmidasbenjamin3913]

🔥🔥🔥

[@mattgilbert7347]

8 optional cab sims? Hell yeah!

[@AlfredHugecokk]

I was looking for a multi-midulation solution to gain some space on my pedalboard. I bought the Joyo R9 Vision because it has 2 channels and costs nothing. Well, it's practical but sounds are not the most subtles. MOD 11 from EHX sounds good but has only one channel. Plethora X5 was to big for my board.... But now I open my YT and found this. It fits all my needs and it is NOT just a multi-modulation unit. I'm gonna spend a bit more but I'm sure it's the perfect solution for me.

[@coolhand_leo]

Sorry for the noob question but Where should I position the X3 if I have the UAFX Dream 65 Amp Pedals? Before or After the UA? Thanks

[@kingpants8764]

Dose anyone know if this has a setting on it to only use one effect at a time? Say I'm soloing in the key of E using a homonizer and mid solo the key changes to A. So if I'm using channel 1 for the key of E, then by selecting channel 2 it shuts off channel 1 so I can solo in the key of A assigned to channel 2.... Is this possible?

[@CORNPOP24]

Where do you go to get past pedals fixed and working again? Ditto X2? IKEA hidden layer near cafeteria?

[@jefflacross7731]

This gives me hope that GLOBAL MIDI CLOCK will be added in a firmware update. The X5 and X3 are marvelous products, and having MIDI CLOCK for the delays would make them unstoppable.

[@wolfgangdevries127]

^this

[@thegoony]

Yep exactly, this with Midi clock would be great with my synths.

[@javiacustico]

with this form factor and price, i anticipate this as a banger..

[@MonsieurSafari]

Again, i want a Ditto x4 Plus were overdubs start exactly on the one without any pause. That would be great!

[@vizarrarommelp.6446]

Cool❤️

[@davidstein7906]

TC Rocks

[@Jays-kr5yp]

Wow 😳

[@kunst4life]

is it possible to use 2 or more instances of the looper at the same time? thank you.

[@gerardo9838]

Awesome! And what about one small pedal that have all these pedal/toneprint inside? Would be amazing! Maybe with midi in/out to control it

[@xebio6]

Check out Hotone Xtomp (no MIDI tho)

[@TornacenseDeFuturo]

My favorite company, I bought my first TC electronic pedal in 2011, and since then, replaced my all pedals with their products. Highly recommend.

[@STV_DG99]

nice! It looks great, but will the effects list continue to be updated? I'm looking to get one. Greetings

[@Abinadab_Silva]

Muito bom!

[@kingpants8764]

Can you assign 2 to board up and 3 to board down?

[@vasilislagdas]

Hi tc! Is analog dry through?

[@6minus3minus2]

Will there be cab sims for bassists coming?

[@bensherman1977]

This is probably a ridiculous question - but would it be possible to run the guitar straight into an amp (say a 50w tube head unit), then run the speaker out into the X3 (or X5 for that matter), and then run the two stereo outputs (L/R) from the effects unit into two separate cabs? Or would this just blow the effects unit up?? 😂

[@SL-zw7ts]

hi a) i see a possibility for a wet dry wet setup with this unit...is it? b) how can i integrate it with my pedalswitcher, e.g during clean i just need delay and chorus and during drive i dont need my delay which usually i control it with my switcher...or i can achieve it with the midi... thanks for the innovation....

[@bootlegapples]

*Calling TC Electronics* .Does this unit offer A %100 wet reverb B spillover option C a way to reduce the overall volume of reverb set to %100 wet?(ie can I cut the volume by 6db or more on a reverb preset ?) Ty

[@martinaleksandrov7080]

looper is still not syncing to midi clock?

yeh im sold tbf, ill get one from andertons next week :D

[@davemaverick8438]

i had Alter Ego and used the most its echorec delay, does this pedal have exact algorithm of echo rec delay?

[@tcelectronic]

It does have some echo rec toneprints pre installed. 😊

[@jonbrenmanugue1182]

very nice..

[@Eltonx38]

Demasiado lag en el cambio de escenas, una pena por la Marca pero compraré otra unidad que no sea esta, la pregunta es por que sacasteis esto si tenía ese gran problema? Negligencia o solo saciasteis esto por rellenar el marcado y no quedaros atrás.

[@raulrico6102]

It works in a bass guitar for?

[@roslykf]

Are the cabsims IRs?

[@trippypages7309]

Can i use synths with it?... I mean: it was designed for use it with line level signals???????????

[@TrebbienGuitar]

🤟🏼🤟🏼

[@Franq85]

Oh, looks nice. Send me one 😆

[@carval8939]

is this usable for bass?

[@DC9V]

I want this because of the Shaker

[@somethingelsedoesmatter]

Wish I knew about this before I bought three separate TC pedals that are included in this one. lol Oh well, I still want one!

[@spaceshipable]

Has it got tap tempo yet?

[@epilefsiul]

I have a TC Nova Modulation and I want to make a step fordward to a midi solution. The plethora X3 is still big for my pedalboard and I only need modulation. It would be great to have a recharged multimodulation in a X2 fx form factor or an equivalent solution of the Line6 M5.

[@Arkansya]

it's the missing link between the zoom MS series and full-on multi effect pedals

[@Brink1957]

Is the Line 6 HX Stomp a better and more versatile solution?

[@AlecBourneMidiMadScientist]

Infinitely more versatile. These are two completely different animals. Stomp is an all in one, this is a modulation gunship. Stomp is designed to do everything, this is designed to be integrated into a board as a selection of 15 different TC pedals with some very clever integration. Drives, amp sims, a recording audio interface you’ll find in hxstomp, plethora is different, an excellent partner device to a helix as it does modulation very differently and can be controlled from helix or run with any amp and drives in 4CM. It’d be slightly more similar to an HXFX than say a stomp or helix floor.

[@starluxstudio619]

80 second mono looping? What does it have like 24MBs of storage?

[@richardmusicman8997]

Does Plethora includes eq?

[@pedicoguitar]

cab sims are impulse response?

[@RobinYee-xc9vf]

Easy setting, fast playing.

[@mrbaiser4133]

A setlist of 30 songs, each of them uses 3 completely independent presets, toggling back and force between them. Is that possible with the X3, without bowing down, just with the footswitches?

[@TheSlimDude]

As it’s basically a smaller version of the X5 I would say no, unless you are using an external MIDI controller.

[@MrThepetrolhead1]

If you mean say Bank 1 is song 1, bank 2 is song 2 etc, it looks like pressing footswitch 1+2 banks down and 2+3 banks up, similar to strymon and boss 500 series i guess...theres arrows on the x3 that make me think thats possible...

[@TheSlimDude]

@@MrThepetrolhead1 you’re right, I stand corrected.

[@Kattemageren]

Yes you can

[@makingmusiconline2309]

You can go up and down boards, but not switch back and forth between 1 of 3 (unless you add a MIDI controller footswitch). So if your first song uses three independent presets, you can put them on boards 1, 2 and 3; then put song 2 on 4, 5 and 6 etc. Note that there is a gap when switching between different presets/boards (even if the board contains the same three pedals and toneprints, as they get reloaded with the new configuration values) of around 300ms (give or take) so if you are playing at 120bpm (two beats per second) you'll lose a little under one beat of music while switching .... so as long as you know it will take that time to load the new board, then you're fine .... but you can't do it while holding a sustained note without the effects dropping out for that time (and I believe that if you have a pedal reducing your guitar volume to, say, half volume, then while it is out of loop, you'll get full volume coming through to your amp for those 300ms) Most of us Plethora X5 users are ok with that, but it's something to be aware of so you aren't surprised.

[@stratocumulusnimbostratus328]

Can you use the standard tone prints for Sat the Hall of Fame 2 or do you have to use just the Plethora 3 ones in the app?

[@anjorg70]

The same set of HoF2 toneprints are available for the PX3, as for the HoF2
