Play Acoustic – Reference manual (2014-07-16) 7

Welcome to the Play Acoustic manual!

First, thank you so much for purchasing Play
Acoustic. We at TC-Helicon are confident that
your vocal and acoustic guitar performances
will be positively impacted with this great effects
processor.

As you discovered in the Quick Start Guide (the
short manual that came in the box), Play Acous-
tic is easy to use at the top level, but there is
more under the hood of this compact device
than you might think. We recommend you treat
your Play Acoustic like any other new instrument
and dedicate some time to learning how to use it.

Yes, that means RTFM!

Read the…

manual.

And if you ever find yourself without this manual:
On the bottom of your Play Acoustic , you will
find a “cheat sheet” explaining the most impor-
tant functions.
