Fantastic new pedal from TC Electronic!!

The truly funny thing is that if it was momentary, I would buy it.

It's latching? Could be good for 4'33...

Rumour has it that TC is develpoing the Billy Sheehan signature version.

 

[gln1955]

also using the term "vacuum" sort of gives an impression there might be a tube involved

Well, everybody knows tube silence is much warmer than solid state silence. Don't even get me started on digital silence.

Will this under-power my cabs?

Luckily, they have a sound sample on the page of that very thing!

It's amazing! With this pedal, literally ANYONE can play John Cage's infamous 4'33! Genius!

 

[Marikk]

You have to admire the detail and commitment they put into this

Funny video, but as noted in other posts there are many people who use a kill switch pedal, especially momentary for that randy rhoads effect (don't know if he was first but he did it often).

 

[Rich Fiscus]

Meh.

Now if somebody would make Leland Sklar's producer switch in pedal form I'd pay big bucks for that.

 

[Lee Moses]

Had no idea I even needed this, but now I'm stoked and can't wait for this to come out!

I plan to get two...one at the start of my chain and one at the end. Game changer for sure.

Pure gold. And the gullibility of TB posters increases the LOL factor exponentially.

Do they celebrate April 1st on March 31 elsewhere?

Do you need an explanation of how time zones work?

It's 5:00 somewhere...!

 

[kurth83]

So it can improve my bass solos? We wants it...

 

[Versatek6]

I have a prototype, but having a hard time with getting a licensing agreement signed.

What's the current drain on it? Does it eat batteries? Can it be run on a Voodo Labs Power juice? 9v center negative? If that's not the case I am out...I think it would perform slightly better, with better headroom and better signal/noise ratio when it's in mute mode if it came at 18v. They all say all pedals have better transparency when run at 18v.
I want slightly better transparency on this one, it can be heard in the YT vid that it's not quite there. Close but no cigar. Maybe they'll fix this when ver 2.00 is released... and using discreet components too, not a printed circuit board which is a bona fide tone sucker.

Anyone heard of the band S**twind? No, they're using these pedals, all the way even on the drums.

 

[GMC]

I have good information that there is going to be several boutique clones of this pedal with bass specific mods.

I think Joyo are all ready on to it....

 

[SnowTau]

I made it about 30 seconds in before I realised

 

[Oddly]

Brilliant video.
You know if the TC guys ever read the reactions here, the thing just might go to production. There's clearly a need...
