TC Electronic Pedals

Uh, no, the toneprints for the pedals can't be loaded in the amp, or vice versa, if that is what you mean.

I don't know as I only have the amp but not the pedals. I assumed that if:

Bass > Pedal 1 - Chorus > Pedal 2 - Delay > Pedal 3 - Flanger > Amp - Overdrive Tone Print > Output would be a mix of chorus, delay, flanger and an overdrive Tone Print from the amp. I guess I am wrong lol
 
No, it doesn't work like that. Each pedal can have it's own Toneprint, as can the amp (or two Toneprints if it's a newer amp).

No that's correct, you do get all effects applied to your sound that way. Your post was just possible to interpret to mean something else.
 
I use a BH250 amp head and it's compatible with toneprints. <snip> There is also a Switch-3 pedal which means you can alternate between different toneprints.

I have a BG250 208 - great amp and I love the toneprints, but there's no reverb or delay. I'm considering a HOF mini.

Don't buy the switch-3.... it's just 3 momentary switches (not latching stomp-box switches) and 2 diodes. I've made mine for £10 (instead of £50) but I missed out the mute - I don't want a mute with no indicator LED near my big feet while playing!
