TC Electronic PLETHORA X3 Overview

Enjoy a true cornucopia of sound FX with the Plethora X3 from TC Electronic, a powerful multi-FX processor pedal designed to act as a virtual pedalboard, allowing you to unleash up to 75 TonePrints to each of the three MASH footswitches for unlimited creativity. With customizable signal chains and up to 172 boards, Plethora X3 lives up to it's namesake.

MASH technology makes each footswitch an expression controller with customizable mapping. Each TonePrint can be adjusted quickly with three simple knobs and you can assign specific effect parameters to each knob. Low-noise stereo inputs and outputs provide you with enormous creative possibilities and plenty of headroom, and 5-pin DIN MIDI connections make it easy to connect Plethora X3 to external gear, such as control units for switching boards. Customize everything wirelessly via Bluetooth LE and the TonePrint app. The Plethora X3 includes a 9V AC power adapter.

UniTune and Cab Sim
To save even more space on your board, TC Electronic integrated UniTune, for easy access to an ultraprecise and responsive chromatic tuner. TC Electronic also added the option to engage cab sim at the end of your signal chain, so if you record direct to an audio interface, or if you perform at gigs without an amp, you can go directly into the club PA system.
Following Your Flow
Regardless of whether you prefer your signal to flow from left to right or vice versa, PLETHORA X3 can be set up to fit your logic. It may not be the most mind-blowing feature PLETHORA has under the hood, but it fits perfectly into TC Electronic's guitar philosophy of never standing in the way of your creativity, and it will make a real practical difference if the rest of your pedalboard's signal flows in a certain direction.
Connect, Upload, Go!
Connect the free TonePrint App to Plethora X3 via Bluetooth, to effortlessly import sounds from TC Electronic's ever-growing TonePrint library. With the app editor, you can customize TonePrints, or make your very own. The app will keep you up to date with regular firmware updates, new boards, TonePrints, and more.
Loop, Swap, Play!
A Tape Deck Looper is built right into PLETHORA X3 for quick, simple, and intuitive looping on the fly. You also get the Quick Swap feature that lets you reorder your signal chain easily between songs or even mid-song if necessary.
Automatic Saving
Plethora X3 automatically saves your settings as you go. No need to constantly remind yourself to hit Save, or fear losing your latest effect preset. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing that Plethora X3 has your back once the music starts playing.
