Thanks for reviewing the pedal. Next time you film a reivew, please adjust only one knob at a time so your viewers can hear what each change did to the sound. I tried finding the straight Sub 2 tone/volume during multiple attempts at watching this vid, but saw more of the back of your hand spinning knobs than hearing the sound info I needed in order to make a decision about this pedal. ( 04:38 started a full minute of haphazard adjustments.) For a review of pedal capabilities, a more methodical approach would better convey the information. What I witnessed here seemed to be along the lines of what each of us will eventually do ourselves once we unbox the pedal and connect cables to it...try this, spin that, turn this on/off, etc. Hard to follow when someone else is doing it.
Just love that they thought to add things like modulation and drive inside the toneprint editor. Makes an average octave pedal WAY more interesting, and not at all average.
How about latency compared to micro POG? Cos POG was way too slow for faster harmonica runs. How does it handle the pitch shifts like hand vibratos on guitar? Can be interesting with bending notes on harmonica...
Nearly 100% latency free (I tested it today) found the POGs unusable.... Bends nicely too. Left the store not too fussed on the tone I was getting from the sub out (wanting to emulate a bass with a guitar) and was thinking it was a shame BUT then I see there's all this ability to EQ and tweak to your hearts desire....TC look like they've really hit the nail on the head here! Kudos for the awesome Video too Gabe...
I originally ditched this awesome pedal for my new Eventide H9, thinking it could cover octaver ground. Bought it back a week later because the H9 doesn't track nearly as well as this baby.
Perhaps you could emulate an organ-like bass, but not a bass-guitar, because this is not a pitch shifter, this is an octave generator. However, Digitech Drop IS a pitchshifter and I am using it's octave down setting to successfully replace a bass-guitar using my strat (I had actually owned and sold my Squier Jazz Bass after I started using DT Drop since it covers this my home recording and basking needs).
i am sorry but the sub and up i bought yesterday, is shit! i logged it in my signal chain via my loopswitch, before the am, after the distortion, before the distorion, I cranked it up with the spark booster, then in den effect loop, i changed the patch cables, even the swiss handmade made did not a better/louder sound... allways the level of the volume was weak.... The volume of the whole baord became more silent, as soon as i turned it off, everything was as ever... may i had a bad one, or it is just a worse pedal.....the first tiem, that i am disappointed about a tc product....... and the dealer says, no way, i am not able to handle it, after playin 34 guitar!!!!!

Such a great demo, Gabriel! Love it!
How I get the organ donor template in the new app?
That's how you review a TC pedal! Thanks for showing the TonePrint parts with real-time interaction.
Just love that they thought to add things like modulation and drive inside the toneprint editor. Makes an average octave pedal WAY more interesting, and not at all average.
Superb review. And it hasn't been bettered in the last eight years!
To me this is the best demo on youtube as you show all the toneprint capabilites what makes this pedal standing out from other octavers.
Awesome demo, thanks for showing the Toneprint in such a clear concise way.
Brilliant beasty. Here's where tone print really starts to make sense to me. Bad G.A.S. attack.
Great review. Just got one. Super stoked after watching this.
Great video, reinspired to go back and use the one I have had for over a year.
Did not know this thing existed. It's just sick! An expression pedal input would be sick...
Thanks for the awesome video of all the tones. Helped be pull the trigger.👍
This is awesome. I need one. Will be purchasing soon.
Alright then,now I must have this.
very interesting, good job.
Very Mike Oldfield
Awesome!

Thanks for your reply! Cool!
I will definitely give it a shot!

If this thing had a momentary switch like the Digitech Ricochet, it would be perfect!
That sounds like a UFO trying to find a place to land.
Do you have the tabs for the intro melody so I can try to replicate that?.....sounds great.
before or after dirt?
Can you midi learn the TonePrint Editor and hook it up with a midi controller? That would be sick!
+Kevin Velghe - No, you can't do that.
Can we download TonePrint preset from famous guy on your website ? I'm very lazy, so that would be great ;-)
Not yet, but there is a phone app now, where you can make an adjustment on the fly, and then re-beam the changes.
SOLD!!
Can you use this to imitate the sound of just a regular electric bass?

Is it possible to destroy your guitar speaker with this?
yes but you'll get a lot of unbearable mud before you do any real damage

User error.
unable to set the frequency range like oc5 right? I like the idea of 5 6 strings bass when playing fingerstyle.
