The TC Electronic PLETHORA X1 TonePrint Loader and guitar effects pedal is a revolutionary tool for guitarists who crave ultimate control over their sound. This innovative pedal lets you design your very own multi-model TonePrint pedal, offering the flexibility to store and recall up to 14 legendary TC TonePrints across seven virtual boards. Whether you're looking to recreate classic tones or craft entirely new sounds, the PLETHORA X11 puts an entire universe of effects at your fingertips, making it an essential addition to any pedalboard.

Customize Your Tone With Unparalleled Ease

The PLETHORA X1 is all about customization and flexibility. With its seven virtual boards, each featuring two slots for storing and recalling TonePrints, you can effortlessly switch between your favorite effects setups. Simply hold down the footswitch when in A/B mode to toggle between Slot A and Slot B, giving you instant access to a wide array of tones. The intuitive 1" IPS LCD screen clearly displays the effect type and parameter information, making it easy to navigate and tweak your settings on the fly.

Real-Time Expression With MASH Footswitch

One of the standout features of the PLETHORA X1 is the MASH footswitch, which provides real-time expression control over your effects. This pressure-sensitive switch allows you to dynamically manipulate parameters, such as increasing delay time or adding more reverb, simply by varying the pressure of your foot. This expressive control opens up new possibilities for live performance, letting you create fluid, evolving soundscapes that respond to your playing in real time.

Seamless Connectivity and Tone Creation

Connectivity is key with the PLETHORA X1. The pedal features full stereo inputs and outputs, ensuring that your sound remains rich and immersive whether you're in the studio or on stage. With built-in Bluetooth and USB capabilities, you can easily connect the PLETHORA X1 to your PC or mobile device and access the TC TonePrint app. This app allows you to dive deep into the pedal's parameters, giving you the power to create your own custom TonePrints or explore an expanded array of existing options. Whether you're a tone tweaker or a plug-and-play player, the PLETHORA X1 adapts to your needs.

Compact, Powerful, and Ready for the Road

Despite its powerful capabilities, the PLETHORA X1 is housed in a compact, road-ready enclosure that fits easily on any pedalboard. Weighing just .34 kg (.75 lb.), it's lightweight and easy to transport, making it an ideal choice for gigging musicians. The robust construction ensures that it can withstand the rigors of live performance, while the elegant design makes it a visually appealing addition to your setup. With the PLETHORA X1, TC Electronic has created a pedal that combines versatility, power and ease of use, making it a must-have for any serious guitarist.

    I use this in my effects loop to provide spatial effects to my sound. It allows me up have many options taking up a lot of room. The app is very difficult to get connected. The toneprints are great and the concept is awesome, but the app is awful and very frustrating. When you finally get it to connect it's good, but it's not easy and takes multiple attempts to connect, every single time, not just initially. I've got the latest version of the toneprint app. I have used a corona chorus for a couple years now and was familiar with the app and the toneprint concept. This does everything my Corona does, and so much more. The pedal allows you to pick 1 effect at a time. For multiple effects at the same time the plethora x3 and x5 do that- that wasn't what I wanted. 5 stars for the concept 5 stars for the quality of the tones available 5 stars for the form factor 2 stars for the app- it's the weak link

  • Good product but the app must work

    This pedal is great as a shape shifter. It can be any (non-drive) pedal you want, one at a time. Many modulation effects are unlikely to be used all at once, so this saves space and money. The app worked on my M4 Mac, but not on iPhone 14 or a 2015 Mac, which leaves you unable to edit

  • Awesome new pedal by TC electronics!
