Frequently Asked Questions

You download the TonePrint editor software, choose from a library of user-created sounds, and transfer them to the pedal via USB. Expect everything from subtle detunes to wild, almost theremin-like tones.
While it’s not a high-end, studio-grade pitch tracker, the tracking is generally decent for most playing styles. Very fast, complex runs might exhibit some slight artifacts, but it's manageable for most genres.
While designed for guitar, it *can* be used with bass, but the lower frequencies might introduce more aliasing and require careful mix knob adjustments to avoid muddiness.
