Great video! I have a big question... I'm thinking about buying it to reduce the size of the pedalboard, but do you believe that the quality of this pedal is very similar to the original TC pedals?
Hi Marcosernestoandrademelo5376! In terms of quality I would say: yes, it is similar to the TC pedals. You can even have a larger library of options in the Plethora X3 than in the regular pedal. For example, the full blown Hall of Fame 2 pedal (not the mini) has 8 different reverb types whereas in the Plethora X3 there are 23 in the same Hall of Fame 2 pedal. Now the full blown pedal has 2 pre delay options whereas the one in the Plethora X5 it doesn't, but you can put a delay pedal in front the reverb and fix that. Going back to the quality I am preparing a video comparing the digital compressor in the Plethora X3 vrs the PRS Mary Cries (a $220 analog optical compressor pedal). I think if I do a blind test it would be almost impossible to distinguish which one is the real analog compressor. So, yes, great quality from what I have tested. Thanks for watching the channel, and keep rocking!
Hi Vasuderamkissoon5291! This pedal has no distortion simulation, it has cab simulations: for guitar it has six 4x12s, one 2x12, and two 1x12s, and for base one 1x15. I hope that helps, and keep rocking!

Could've checked some presets by turning some pedals on and off.
That's true Jamesnorton7601, I should do a video like that. Thanks for the suggestion!

Does this have a distortion ir lead tones?
