What is the TC Electronic Brainwaves Pitch Shifter Pedal and what does it do?

The TC Electronic Brainwaves is a versatile pitch shifter pedal that allows you to add harmonies, octaves, and detune effects to your guitar or bass signal. It can create rich, layered sounds, from subtle thickening to dramatic polyphonic shifts, expanding your sonic palette for solos, riffs, and ambient textures.

What types of pitch shifting effects can I create with the Brainwaves pedal?

The Brainwaves pedal offers a wide range of pitch effects, including polyphonic pitch shifting for harmonies, octave up/down, and detune for chorus-like thickening. You can dial in precise intervals and even create complex multi-voice effects. Its MASH footswitch also allows for expressive real-time control over parameters.

How does the MASH footswitch work on the Brainwaves pedal?

The MASH footswitch on the Brainwaves pedal is pressure-sensitive, allowing you to control various effect parameters in real time by pressing harder on the switch. This innovative feature lets you dynamically bend pitches, swell harmonies, or manipulate other effects, adding expressive performance capabilities to your playing.

What are the EBS patch cables included with the Brainwaves pedal used for?

The included EBS patch cables are high-quality, low-profile cables designed to connect your Brainwaves pedal to other pedals on your pedalboard. Their compact design helps save space and keep your setup tidy, ensuring a clean signal path and reliable connection between your effects for optimal sound quality.

Can I customize or save my own pitch shifting sounds on the Brainwaves pedal?

Yes, the Brainwaves pedal supports TC Electronic's TonePrint technology. This allows you to beam custom artist-created presets or design your own unique pitch-shifting sounds using the free TonePrint Editor app. You can then store these personalized settings on the pedal, giving you endless sonic possibilities.
