From Our Research Team:Legendary TC Guitar Effects in a Floor Based SystemOver the years, t.c. electronic has become a leading manufacturer of a wide variety of world-class audio equipment for recording studios. But TC has always been true to their first love; guitar processing - and today tc is acknowledged as a leader in guitar effects processing. The t.c. Electronic G-System is built on that legacy and pushes the boundaries even further.t.c. electronic G-System at a Glance:
Multi-effects Processor/Floorpedal Choose between a rack or a floor based setup, decide how the effects are routed, tailor the foot switch layout, and choose from more than 25 different on-board effects. The GFX01 19" 1U effects processor can simply be removed from t.c. electronic G-System and rackmounted. A single cable connects the GFX01 with the t.c. electronic G-System floor unit putting your stomp boxes and messy cables out of sight while keeping the power and control under foot. Sturdy and Stable A live product must be built to survive the road, and t.c. electronic G-System has been designed to do just that! The t.c. electronic G-System user interface and mechanical design are truly unique. With the heavy duty aluminum face plate, extruded supports and the 18 giant metallic chrome switches, stability is ensured and durability is a given, no matter how hard life gets on the road. Rock Solid User Interface Direct access user interface is via 6 rotary encoders. Not only are these encoders protected by the heavy duty chrome switch housing, but vital components are protected below. With no vulnerable plastic knobs and no obvious openings G-System is sealed against dust, dirt, moisture and the inevitable "liquid accident" on stage. Chromatic Tuner With the full chromatic tuner you can always keep an eye on your guitar tuning. By pressing and holding the "tuner" switch the outputs will mute and even more precise tuner information will be displayed in the LED matrix. Hitting any switch will instantaneously un-mute the output and send you back into the play mode. Analog Pedal Loops It is a well-known fact that any disengaged pedal will eat into your guitar tone. The 4 analog loops in G-System give you full preset control as well as on-the-fly enabling/disabling, allowing "true bypass" of any pedal. The 5th loop is custom designed for pre-amp insertion. Buffered driver design of the insert loop allows for extra long cable runs with no loss of audio quality. Amp Switching 4 relay switches gives you remote analog control of preamps and amps. Relays are under G-System preset control and can be controlled on-the-fly as well. Delay The delay section sports more than 6 different effects, including legendary 2290 dynamic delay, reverse delay, tape echo and more. All delays feature true "spillover" allowing the repeats of the delay to ring out across any preset change. Tap tempo is a given and can of course be tied to MIDI clock. Reverb Reverbs from the famous TC pallet are included. Plates, rooms, springs and halls are available in the reverb section, all specifically tuned and tailored for guitar. But wait there's more... The G-System holds numerous extras. To mention a few, ultra smooth noise gate and three band EQ are included. The boost function makes your 'fill' or solo stand at the flick of a switch, all tempo based effects can be individually controlled by tap tempo or MIDI clock, and numerous parameters are under expression pedal control. Pre Effects Effects that are typically used prior to your 'lead' effects are found in the pre effects section. The pre-loop DSP section of t.c. electronic G-System features a high impedance instrument input and full 96kHz/24bit conversion and processing. This high resolution processing ensures maximum preservation of the guitar's original harmonics which are vital to the character of any overdrive pedal or preamp. The t.c. electronic G-System filter section allows you to select between touchand manually controlled filters, ranging from wah wah over formants to high peak resonance filters. The t.c. electronic G-System compressor section enables perfect dynamic control of the previous filters, a pumping style compressor or the more transparent compression style that gives smooth dynamic control and lengthy sustain. Post Effects The t.c. electronic G-System post effects section includes all the traditional effects that belong after the 'lead' section. The t.c. electronic G-System post-effect section features an ultra-fast noise gate allowing removal of background noise from potential high gain pedals or preamps when not playing. Modulation effects of your choice, including the famous TC chorus, flangers, phasers, tremolo, vibrato and more, are available in the t.c. electronic G-System modulation section. The t.c. electronic G-System detune feature adds to your stereo image, while whammy and octavers allow for more effected sounds. The regular pitch shifting features up to a two octave shift. t.c. electronics G-System Features:
A great all-in-one guitar effects solution with the t.c. electronic G-System!

Reviewsbased on 2 reviewsG-System changed my life!
by Tony Heyes from Madison NH USA
After many years searching fo rthe "perfect" guitar effects set-up, I decided to take the plunge and invest in the TC G-System, mostly after reading some positive reviews and frustration with all the ... read more [+]so-called "boutique" pedals and devices I had been using over the years. I have been playing professionally for over 30 years, 20 of those years in full time touring bands.September 13, 2006 Music Background: Pro touring musician, recording and live sound engineer. I have to say that after an initial glitch with a sticky button (taken care of in extremely professional fashion by TC and Sweetwater in a very short time) I am extremely impressed by the unit. I am constantly finding new ways to integrate the system into my live show. Being the only guitarist in a four piece band (guitar, bass, drums, singer), I need many different sounds and effects during the evening, including harmony lead solos which the G-Systems pitch unit does surprisingly well. I also use the unit to change channels on my Marshalls (DSL 100's) - great for switching between clean (with chorus, EQ and reverb) to crunchy chords with delay and then to soaring tap delay leads with a single tap on each button. The parameters allow you to set up effects and channel switching for each preset and even include the use of some of those "boutique" effects I hung on to via footswitchable loops! Suffice to say, I am pleased with the G-System... There is also a nice built in tuner that mutes the signal for quite and accurate tuning. Another great plus is that the controller sits on the floor on stage, and the "brain" can be seperated and sits off stage in a case with any looped effects boxes (and my wireless unit). The controller is conected with a single ethernet cable - nice and tidy - just carry a spare! The only negative I could find was that the pitch algorythm won't recognize chords - so I can't, for example turn my six string into a 12 string... fortunately, the unit is upgradeable through firmware updates and I expect the thing only to get better as TC listens to user feedback (and they do...). Hey, it's good enough for Steve Vai! I added two Boss expression pedals to control volume (great for leads) and as a wah controller (excellent wah sounds). I am also experimenting with the formant effects in the hope of creating various talkbox effects using the pedal. I am just scratching the surface after a few shows, and only look forward to discovering many more ways to work with this piece of gear. All in all, highly recommended!! close [-] All-in-one Unit
by Marco P. from Chicago, IL USA
The quality of the reverbs, pitch shifting, filters and modulation in this unit are worth the list price alone. But it does so much more acting as a control center for your existing setup. You can cha... read more [+]nge channels on your amp, send midi cc messages, control multiple effects parameters in real time via expression pedal, take your favorite stomp boxes in and out of your signal chain, simplify a multi-amp setup and of course have it all happen at once per preset by stomping on one pre-programmed switch. You have the option of controlling your entire rig from the floor or you can rack the effects section and have nothing but the foot controller and one Cat 5 cable on stage keeping things neat and tidy. Basically this single unit allows you to achieve anything you've dreamed your rig could do and probably more! close [-]

Ryan MurphyTC Electronic went to a military base and drove a tank over this and it still worked.
Mark MagdichThe G System is the finest complete guitar system I have ever seen and played. The integration of external switching, ease of editing, and the effects make it worth thousands of dollars more that what it is. Completely transparent and mixes with any guitar amp and tone!
Nate EdwardsThe G-System is one of the coolest guitar processors to appear in recent history; not only does it have incredible sounding effects from TC Electronic, but it's built more like something made for the Army than something for the studio. It will stand up to just about any live abuse, and the FX loops and other options ensure that you can use it alongside your favorite pedals with no problem. Awesome! Also popular
