What’s a TonePrint you ask? Check it out here!

BYOD (Bring Your Own Drive)

Drive pedals are at the heart of building your own tone.

More so than any other type of pedal, they are integral to which kind of guitarist you see yourself as. They become part of your identity. An extension of yourself blasted through your amp!

As such, you should have the choice to integrate your own favorite stompboxes into the signal chain.

Plethora’s FX insert loop lets you add your preferred flavor of gain anywhere on the board you like.

You can also use the insert for 4-cable method setup with your amplifier, letting you choose which effects go in front of your amp’s input and which effects live in your amp’s effects loop.

Expression On The Side

Do you have a special place in your heart for expression pedals?

Sometimes a certain song might call for separate parameter control outside of what the MASH switches provide.

That’s cool., Plethora X5 features an EXP input to hook up your favorite expression pedal for controlling any effect you like or adding an extremely useful volume pedal, anywhere in the boards signal chain.

Stay Connected

Plethora X5 is the first TC pedal to feature Bluetooth, letting you connect to the TonePrint App to load Using the free TonePrint app you can connect your phone to Plethora and arrange your boards to get everything just the way you like it!

Don’t Forget!

A guitarist’s life can be stressful at times and sometimes you just have to hustle.

Don’t let that get in the way of your quest for tone though!

Plethora X5 automatically stores your settings as you go, without the need for deep menu diving and keeps them safe until you’re ready to rock out again!

Keeping An Ear Out

With a product as wide-ranging and versatile as Plethora X5 there’s a huge potential for further development and we are dedicated to release regular updates with new features, new pedals, new TonePrints and some next-level top secret stuff.

We already have a loooong list of ideas we want to try out but we want to hear from you!

That’s right you, reading this right now!

What features would you like to see Plethora getting in the future? Don’t be afraid to ask!

No Strings On Me

We all know how frustrating the entire pedalboard building process can be.

After you’ve squeezed everything you want onto your board, angling pedals with different form factors to make them fit, there’s the Gordian knot of patch cables and power cords to take into account.

Plethora X5 drastically cuts down on cable clutter by keeping most of the wiring virtual – on the inside of the unit where you can swap and switch trouble-free.

Mix It Up!

What would it sound like if you turned the usual order of delay into reverb upside down?

Or if you insert your favorite, sputtery octave fuzz at the end of your chain after the time based effects? Great question!

With Plethora’s Quick Swap feature, it’s a breeze to experiment with pedal routing.

Just hold down the footswitches of two pedals that you’d like to swap around and it’s done. Easy peas. Cool beans.

Cab Service When You Need It

When you’re in the mood for going somewhere in a hurry, it’s nice to have dependable cab service! You may not have time or space to grab your amp and cabinet before rushing to the gig.

As an added bonus we’ve included 9 optional global cab simulations made in-house, using a proprietary TC method. Makes “direct to PA” gigs and home recording sessions a breeze! And there's even something for the BASS players...

Life In Stereo

With all of these studio-grade effects and TC’s legendary reputation for creating the lushest tones in the biz, we’d be remiss not to equip our flagship product with true stereo to let you experience the richest sounds in rock.
