5.4 Frequently Asked Questions about
TonePrint pedals
Do the TonePrint pedals have balanced or unbalanced
inputs/outputs?
TonePrint pedals have unbalanced inputs and outputs. Use cables with TS jacks
(i.e., standard instrument cables).
Is it possible to run this TonePrint pedal in the effects
loop of a tube amp?
Yes. All TonePrint pedals have a very wide gain range and are designed to run
at both instrument and line level. There are a few amps which are capable of
running much hotter than r4 dBu line-level signals because of the way
their effect loops are designed. With these amps, it might be possible to get the
input to clip. But for 99 % of all amps, the TonePrint pedals will work just fine.

6. Operation – Bypass Mode
6.1 True Bypass and Buffered Bypass explained
True Bypass mode is a hard-wire bypass that gives absolutely no coloration of
tone when the pedal is bypassed. This is the default mode for your effect pedal.
Using True Bypass on all pedals is a perfect choice in setups with a few pedals and
relatively short cables before and after the pedals.
If...
•
you use a long cable between your guitar and the first pedal or
•
if you use many pedals on your board or
•
if you use a long cable from your board to the amp,
... then the best solution will most likely be to set the first and the last pedal in
the signal chain to Buffered Bypass mode.
Can you hear the difference between a pedal in True
Bypass or Buffered Bypass mode?
Maybe, maybe not – many factors apply: active vs. passive pick-ups, single-coil
vs. humbucker, cable quality, amp impedance and more. We cannot give a single
ultimate answer. Use your ears and find the best solution for your setup!
6.2 Switching between True Bypass and
Buffered Bypass
To set the bypass mode, proceed as follows:
•
Disconnect the pedal and turn it on its back.
•
Unscrew the back plate of the pedal and look for the two small dip-switches
in the upper left corner.
•
The upper DIP switch (the one closer to the power in jack), switches between
True Bypass mode (default) and Buffered Bypass mode.
•
Set the DIP switch to the desired position.
•
Remount the back-plate.
7. Maintenance
7.1 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 “Support” page for your TC pedal.
There are updaters for Microsoft Windows (these are ZIP archives containing
the firmware installer) and for OS X (these are disk image files containing 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
