The ABC of TonePrints
Once your pedal has been detected, you are
ready to create your very own TonePrints. Here
is how it basically works:
TonePrint Editor exposes the internal parameters
of a TonePrint-enabled pedal. The sliders of the
editor user interface allow you to create a cus-
tomized version of a renowned TC effect that you
can call your own. From subtle variations to ex-
treme modifications that will fundamentally alter
an effect’s character and behavior: The choice
is yours!
– Use the on-screen sliders of
TonePrint Editor
to adjust the effect’s parameters.
– Every TonePrint you create or modify can be
stored to the currently connected TonePrint-
enabled TC effect pedal or to your computer,
so you can recall it later.
– The
TonePrint Library
gives you direct ac-
cess to the many TonePrints that have been
created by your favorite artists and guitar ef-
fect aficionados all over the world. Drill down
by instrument type, mark TonePrints as favor-
ites and learn more about the stories behind
the artists and their sonic creations!
Precautions:
Don’t lose that TonePrint!
When editing TonePrints, there are two things
that you should always keep in mind:
1. When you are done editing, always remember
to store your TonePrint. You can store the cur-
rent TonePrint to…
1. the currently connected TC TonePrint pedal
by pressing the “Store to Pedal” button
or
2. to your computer by pressing the “Store”
button in the TonePrints section of the user
interface.
! If you do not store your TonePrint to your
pedal or the computer, you will lose your
creation when you disconnect or power off
your TC effect pedal.
2. You can use the knobs on your pedal in re-
al-time, and the parameters will follow on-
screen, but whatever you do:
Don’t change
the Type Selector away from the Tone-
Print slot, and do not disconnect power
while editing without saving your Tone-
Print first.
Different pedals,
different parameters
No two TonePrint-enabled pedals are alike – but
different pedal types share certain parameters
such as “Speed” and “Depth”.
With
delay
and
reverb
TonePrints, you can also
add
modulation
to the effect. The interface for
reverb/delay modulation is the same as for the
pedals dedicated to modulation effects.
This is why this manual has three parameter-re-
lated sections:
– The first section covers all
modulation-relat-
ed
parameters in TonePrint Editor.
– The second section covers all parameters re-
lated to
delay
TonePrints.
– The third section is dedicated to all param-
eters of
reverb
TonePrints.
