Updating the firmware
TC may provide updates for the built-in software
of your pedal, the firmware. Updating your TC
pedal’s firmware requires…
►
a computer running Microsoft Windows or
OS X with a standard USB interface
► the specified DC power supply for your pedal.
Preparing the firmware update
►
Download the newest firmware from the “Sup-
port” page for your TC pedal. There are up-
daters
– for Microsoft Windows (these are ZIP ar-
chives containing the firmware installer) and
– for OS X (these are disk image files contain-
ing the firmware installer).
► Unplug all cables (including the power supply)
from your TC pedal.
► Connect the pedal to your computer using a
USB cable.
►
Press and hold the footswitch on your TC
pedal. If your TC pedal has more than one
footswitch, press and hold the leftmost foot-
switch.
►
Insert the DC power supply plug.
►
The LED on your pedal should turn green. If
your TC pedal has more than one LED, the
leftmost LED should turn green. This indicates
that the pedal is ready to receive the software
update.
►
Release the footswitch.
►
Your TC pedal will now be recognized as an
updatable device.
Applying the firmware update
► Quit all MIDI-related applications (e.g. your
DAW) on your computer and launch the firm-
ware updater you have downloaded in step 1.
►
In the firmware updater app, select your TC
pedal from the drop-down list under the
“STEP 1” heading.
► When the “Update” button under the “STEP 2”
heading turns green, click it.
The updated firmware will now be transferred to
your TC pedal. Wait for the progress bar to reach
100%. When the update procedure is complete,
the pedal will automatically restart.

Electronic effect pedal, proceed as follows:

larity is correct.
