Get to know them!

Lugging around a full-sized pedalboard on planes and trains is far from ideal for the traveling guitarist. Thankfully, TC Electronic's Plethora X3 provides near limitless tonal options courtesy of its 127 custom pedalboard slots, with up to three effects running simultaneously for a genuine 'board experience fit for the backpack. Many of TC Electronic's most popular TonePrint-equipped pedals come loaded in the X3 — including the Hall of Fame 2 Reverb, Flashback 2 Delay, Hypergravity Compressor, and more — with 75 TonePrint slots available per effect. MASH footswitches supply real-time expressive control over your effects, nestled alongside player-focused features such as a tuner, a noise gate, a cab sim, a tap tempo, and MIDI connectivity. Reach for the TC Electronic Plethora X3 and its bountiful TonePrint options, and leave the big, bulky pedalboards at home.

Save and edit up to 127 pedalboards with easy recall

Like the bulkier Plethora X5, the X3 allows you to edit and save up to a staggering 127 custom pedalboard options, with three effects available for simultaneous use and storage for up to 75 TonePrints per effect slot. Whether it's down-and-dirty southern rock, squeaky-clean jazz leads, or washed-out shoegaze, the X3's ample effects options are sure to deliver the tones you seek, with plenty of presets available out of the box to get you playing in minutes. Sweetwater guitarists appreciate the X3's extensive editing options, providing complete control over each TonePrint's parameters to craft your sonic signature. Once you find that sound you seek, saving to any of the 127 custom slots is a cinch — gigging players needing versatility and convenience with their rigs needn't look further than the Plethora X3.

Included TonePrint FX:

  • Helix Phaser
  • Viscous Vibe
  • Tape Deck Looper
  • Hall of Fame 2 Reverb
  • Flashback 2 Delay
  • Sub 'N' Up Octaver

MASH footswitches maximize expression

The Plethora X3 is an expressive piece of gear, thanks to its trio of MASH footswitches. Real-time modulation ramping, volume swells, fluid mix control — you can do all that and more by applying pressure with your foot. Plus, each MASH switch can control up to three effect parameters simultaneously using customizable action curves, imbuing your effects with new dimensions of expression.

Includes a myriad of essential player-friendly features

With the Plethora X3 in your rig, attaining inspiring sounds will be more effortless than ever. This multi-effects pedal's Quick Swap feature enables you to devise interesting sounds by switching pedal order on the fly. Want to flip your delay and reverb around for otherworldly ambience? Toss modulation in front of your amp for some EVH-esque textures? Simply hold down the footswitches of the effects you'd like to swap, and voila — gone are the days of ripping apart your pedalboard for an impromptu sonic experiment! You also get a built-in optional global cabinet simulation for convenient DI-ing, and MIDI In/Thru jacks make selecting configurations from an external device a piece of cake. To top it off, the X3 includes a true stereo signal path for rich, ultra-wide effects and easy rig integration, a clear indication of this pedal's pro-level mindset.
