Multi-effects unit with MASH footswitches for TonePrint effects, including power supply
With the
TC Electronic Plethora X5
, the Danish effects manufacturer is launching an extremely flexible multi-effects unit that uses the diversity of its own TonePrint technology and thus leaves no sound wish unfulfilled. Organized into 127 individual boards of up to five individual pedals, the effects sequence within the signal chain can be freely determined. In addition, up to 75 TonePrints can be stored per pedal, leaving no limits to the flexibility of sound design. The TC Electronic Plethora X5 also has an FX loop that can be placed anywhere in the signal chain to integrate your favorite effects pedals. In addition to five displays, two encoders for Effect and TonePrint, and three parameter controls for programming, the handy TC Plethora X5 also offers Bluetooth and USB for connecting to the TonePrint app for in-depth editing. Last but not least, the TC Electronic Plethora X5's innovative MASH footswitches allow you to control specific effects parameters in real time.

This thing is a fantastic piece of hardware. Sounds stunning and has ultimate flexibility. But it's in dire need of a proper manual. It's far from the most intuitive pedal to use.
