Wow, this looks like a game changer. I have many pedals that I've assembled on my board now that meet all my needs, but if I ever lose all my stuff in a flood or fire, it's good to know I can just get a Plethora X5 and save myself all the extra trouble. Amazing product!
This now has update with Looper etc,,,I sold everything and bought this and Milkman sound amp 50 plus a couple frfr8 speakers and I'm in old man's guitar heaven,,so easy-to-use and tones for miles,,,,IMO it's best setup I've EVER had with just a fraction of cost AND the easiest effect unit I've ever used,,(I'm 65 and tried them all) TC Electronic has a real winner now ,especially since they added the looper in updates!!!!!!! God Bless ,and keep making those joyful noises that make you HAPPY !!!!!!!!
This looks incredible! The sentry, flashback, hof and corona all in one! Depending on price and power requirements this is one of the best products I've seen in a while! I love TC!
You guys just created exactly what I've been searching for! It's the perfect middle ground between super complex multi-fx pedalboards and a huge board of pedals which may be a nightmare to reconfigure. The ability to change the order of the pedals super quick and easy is marvelous (just like the price!)
TC Electronic X3.would be the no brainer add on especially if you keep the loop. It would be able to do many things the H9 cannot and make it ideal for small amp less rigs. Even matches the look of the two note stuff , origin drive , m cab and this (or the smaller one) best fly rig ever amazing :)
Yup... An X3 would be pretty cool and I could use exclusively on the effects loop if my amp....chorus, delay, revert.... Midi switchable... I dig it. The x5 is great but really needs more inputs for other pedals to replace a whole system rig
That's the plan. We're really looking to close the customer feedback loop on this one, with your suggestions and wishes and regular firmware updates to address them 🙂
Next step, make a X2 or X3 for the people who only need a couple of extra effects or add in a couple to an already existing board and don't need the big form factor. I'd love a smaller version so I can use it for the effects that I use rarely, like tremolo, chorus, flanger, looper, the odd crazy pitch shift or vibe. Do it TC - you know you want to!
This already existed. Multifx pedalboads have been existing for decades. And digotal ones conectable to computer for some years. I dont know if this got features that didn't exist before but it looks like a multifx.
Looks great but I wonder why you Avoid the use of impulse response loading and put an eq'ed "british sounding" cab sim. If in the future is a possibillity, that would be a win-win-win and take this great idea into a must have piece of gear!!
I love it but it's too big for my pedalboard, with two or three pedals it would be perfect and would instantly replace my Line 6 M5 (which I use for delay/reverb/modulation right now)
The fact that they called it X5 suggests they’ll make it in different sizes based on past products with similar naming format. It’s a pretty cool product.
Seems you need to update the video description. Mine is all about another pedal. This pedal looks awesome. If only there was a way to fit ditto and polytune in there, it might be the perfect device.
I already imagine a Plethora x10, on 2 rows and 10 simultaneous effects, and with CV outs and 5 additional loops for external pedals and wet/dry/wet rigs, etc... as a modern take on the G system! I used the g-system and liked it, but would love this Plethora to evolve in a full replacement of the g system, or release a new g-system based on the plethora setup.
Take my money now. All of these companies are coming out with such great gear. It’s so hard to pick what to buy. They didn’t mention midi. But I did see it. That’s endless possibilities.
God I LOVE THAT DESIGN. Look at those gorgeous big buttons with the displays. Aargh!! PLEASE give that box to TC-Helicon and get them to make a new Vloop machine with effects and XLR / Jack split inputs with all the pedals in. That could be a monster loop pedal!
After banging my head on the wall for 24 hours trying to edit the Plethora X5, I figured out NOT to use the software but just program straight into the board and I was on my way. I am using a POD Go for dirt, amp, IR and I put the X5 in the POD Go effects loop. The effects are A LOT better than POD Go. Tap tempo to control Delay , press and hold the Tap Tuner switch and there is a great tuner, effects level knobs assigned. Yeah this will work.
Hey TC, your RUclips title does not match the summary listed in the description, and the given link is to a different product. The Plethora X5 looks intriguing. I hope the price undercuts the competition.
This thing looks fantastic. I don't need a hundred different amp simulators just good effects to go with my amp setup. This definitely has my interest.
I’ve watched this a number of times, it looks fantastic! Suggestion for you guys at TC though... Rather than your created boards being number 0-127, would it be possible to name them - for example, Clean Board 1, Low Gain 3, Van Halen Board etc etc?... Would be helpful when scrolling through to remember what each one was for. Got to decide now whether to sell my 6 TC TonePrint pedals and get this instead!
Finally..Looks great. It must be the Mordern G system. Right? but.....9v 600mA??? my power supply(Strymon ZUMA) support 500mA max....I hope this powerful pedal works well in 500mA.
INTAE KIM sadly it seems to lack some of the capabilities of the G-System. No Midi controller and no additional pedal loops that can be integrated in custom presets are the dealbreaker for me. I had really hoped I could replace this glorious 17 pound chunk of metal...
@@711Zephyr I think it has both of those, they definitely mentioned adding external pedals through a loop and adding them to presets and I believe I see midi ins and outs
Juan José Bolado Hadad There’s one loop. But I’d need that for my preamp in the 4-cable method. I’d need at least two. And it has Midi in and through but no midi out. The g-System has all of these but it’s getting old and could definitely use a face lift. Well maybe they will build a Plethora X10 with some additional features in the future.
WOAH. Amazing! Knocked it out of the park. This is already incredible, but if you guys could add some sort of tuner, the ability to load your own IR (even if it's just the one), and maybe more drive options I'd probably buy 2. Would love the ability to literally just take this in my guitar bag to any small gig and have everything I need and not feel like I'm compromising anything. Also, STEREO INPUTS Thank YOU!!!!! Definitely buying one to mess with all the synths and keyboards I can get my hands on. TC's killing it.
Load ir's to what? It's a multi effects pedal not a modeler. Be cool in front of a clean tube amp tho, looks like it'll be pricy coming from Tc electronics. Helix stomp or Headrush gig board if your needing fx and modeling in a small package for around 4 -500 US dollars.
The website says there's a british style cab in it for connecting straight to a PA but no mention of an IR loader. They need to keep some stuff for version 2 lol
Looks brilliant - when the various updates (e.g. looper, tuners and any other pedals) are published, will they be added to the current plethoraX5 via software?
Good afternoon! I bought Plethora X5 for the new year 2022 as a gift to myself. Very happy with the purchase. The device is very high quality and compact. Very easy interface, intuitive. I figured it out even without the manual. I ask you to add only one thing ---- more impulses from guitar amps and cabinets. I tried at concerts and at rehearsals all the cabinet emulations available in the new update. Sounds Good unfortunately ONLY ONE cabinet - JOSE 30 4x12. I also wanted to ask you put global cab sim in the chain AFTER EFFECT LOOP. To make wet effects sound cleaner and clearer. Thanks
I’ve been shopping for a effects modeler or multi effects unit and the whole time I’m wondering why the hell doesn’t TC electronics have something. And today I just now came across this. Super excited. Guitar world says approximately $399? Sold!
Bought one, but then realized it doesn't have the option to route effects parallel. it is useless in my wet/dry/wet rig. Hoping they will fix this in the next update. If there ever is one. I can't seem to get TC to confirm if/when an update will happen. If I set delay/reverb/chorus on kill dry, the latter two won't be heard unless delay in turned on. Then, I won't hear either until the delayed signal comes in. Pretty unusable. PLEASE fix!
Christoph K. It seems not as I saw a few shots with it on pedalboards with a poly tune on the board next to the PlethoraX5. Pretty poor oversight of it doesn’t have a tuner. This would make a nice fly-rig otherwise.
This looks absolutely outstanding! Can’t wait to add this to my rig! Now all we need is a modern reissue of the 2290 and all will be right within the guitar world!
@@backlom nope The closest I've found for a 2290 tone (without modulation) is the T-Rex Replica - also released as a TC Electronic pedal, the TC Vintage Delay. That one is literally a Replica on the inside. TC and T-Rex cut some sort of deal with each other, I believe that entire series of pedals was made by T-Rex for TC (there's an octave, an overdrive and one or two others)
Finally! I love my Nova System for it's compactness, but I have been waiting for a new TC multi-effects for FOREVER. This one looks like it might be worth the wait. As long as it is easy to change boards, I'm sold.
Looks good. Would be nice if it had some of the features of the Boss MS3, primarily a channel switching option for your amp. Also, didn’t see a tuner mentioned, but I’m assuming it has one.

@@beauosland4071 Wow! Not cheap but seems to be a great price for everything you're getting. I was moments away from picking up pedals that would end up being redundant. So glad I saw this. Thanks.
I love the versitility of the Plethora X5 But I have 2 cons that I have discovered are: #1 the awkward tripple-tap to change boards, when playing a live show your taps have to be an exact speed to activate the command, I just ordered the Ampero midi controller to solve this issue. The other con is- I would like to see my board NAMES in large bold font rather than the board NUMBER, right now I need to have a cheat-sheet taped to the floor to remember my board order, some of my boards are visually identical other than a few tweaks to delay times and/or effects levels etc. it would be great if TC Electronic offered a dedicated "Bank up-Down" bluetooth or midi controller with a screen that has the board NAME displayed! please send this enhancement request up the chain for consideration, Thank you!!
Not that I have much merit on what is and isn't important but it comes up just short of (rather, maybe, in what is in my understanding of) high importance for this kinda setup, and that's a stereo effects loop w/ option for routing some pedals into that loop, unless I missed that and please let me know. I'll go back and watch it again if so. If they added a stereo effects loop, that would just truly upset and stomp out the competition.
Looks like a nice device to me. Just so that I understand the difference between this and any multieffect board: what you don't have here is the amp/cabinet simulation and the more complex routing stuff like splits etc. right? What about dynamics?
Oooooh boards pedals and toneprints! and some top secret stuff we still aren’t sure if we’ve actually broken all or just some of line 6’s patents and copyrights on yet lol 😂 love it, and I can finally play my tinwhistle without shame... yaaaaay
![Megan Thee Stallion - Roc Steady (feat. Flo Milli) [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/HozPPyqW0dY/mqdefault.jpg)
This looks like the perfect solution for those who don't want complicated multi-FX boards and wish to keep their favourite pedals.
It's like I ordered this custom made for myself, This should bring world peace.
Retroactive MASH implementation for older pedals and Tap Tempo BPM displays cements this as a must-buy for me. This is insane.

I love the versitility of the Plethora X5 But I have 2 cons that I have discovered are: #1 the awkward tripple-tap to change boards, when playing a live show your taps have to be an exact speed to activate the command, I just ordered the Ampero midi controller to solve this issue. The other con is- I would like to see my board NAMES in large bold font rather than the board NUMBER, right now I need to have a cheat-sheet taped to the floor to remember my board order, some of my boards are visually identical other than a few tweaks to delay times and/or effects levels etc. it would be great if TC Electronic offered a dedicated "Bank up-Down" bluetooth or midi controller with a screen that has the board NAME displayed! please send this enhancement request up the chain for consideration, Thank you!!
And what's the score will spillover between boards - ie; if I go from board 1 to board 2, will my delays and reverbs trail off nicely?
I can't see why not, even my first generation G-Major does that.
In buffered bypass mode, yes. Totally 🙂
@@tcelectronic That's amazing, cheers!!!
Not that I have much merit on what is and isn't important but it comes up just short of (rather, maybe, in what is in my understanding of) high importance for this kinda setup, and that's a stereo effects loop w/ option for routing some pedals into that loop, unless I missed that and please let me know. I'll go back and watch it again if so. If they added a stereo effects loop, that would just truly upset and stomp out the competition.
wow this is a weird looking G-system
G stands for Gangsta
This looks AWESOME!!! Makes me want to build another board with a couple drives, a MIDI switcher, and this guy
When you are Greek and listen the word "plethora" accented on 'e' instead of 'o' so many times 😁😁😁
Can't wait to get my hands on one of these!!
the idea it's fine but i have 2 pedals of tc n never works well the program, never could change toneprints in my alter ego!!!!
Martin Rodriguez sane here and completely ignored by tc electronics
Have you tried using Flashback TonePrints with your Alter Ego?
@@tcelectronic obviusly
@@tcelectronic nothing happens
@@tcelectronicgoing to sell ir n buy a mooer delay, sorry 6 months whith it, no solucion, words can't express my frustration with u n your products
this indeed is a fantastic idea, tool etc.. price is good too.. the question is.. why did u take so long??
I literally just bought a flashback 2 and sentry, sigh always after I spent money....ufghjjhhhgg
Take pedals people already like and put them in one box! Very cool! 👦🏻
I demand a refund for my flashblack, hof, ditto, pipeline, and polytune pedals. So I can just buy this thing instead...
Relate 😂😂
you're better off w/ a loop switcher then. then you can make actual patches of ALL your toneprint pedals.
Finally. You guys are very innovative. This is fire 😍🎸🔥
He’s from England but doesn’t sound like Benny Hill. Ok, I’ll buy it......!!!!
All I need to be fully impressed would be an graphic eq or booster, for different inputs of basses to regulate...will there be a chance of an update?
Shut up and take my money already!!!!
Yes I've been waiting for something like this! Good job tc elec.
@TC Electronic the fact that the FX loop occupies one block makes me consider whether it's worth the X5 over the X3.
Looks like a nice device to me. Just so that I understand the difference between this and any multieffect board: what you don't have here is the amp/cabinet simulation and the more complex routing stuff like splits etc. right? What about dynamics?
Oooooh boards pedals and toneprints! and some top secret stuff we still aren’t sure if we’ve actually broken all or just some of line 6’s patents and copyrights on yet lol 😂 love it, and I can finally play my tinwhistle without shame... yaaaaay
This is what I’ve been waiting for! I need one!
