  • Ensure the "Mix Level" knob is not set to full dry (no effect) or full wet (no dry signal).
  • Bypass the pedal to check if the issue is with the pedal itself or other components in your signal chain.

Unexpected Delay Behavior / Preset Issues

  • If presets 1, 3, 5, or 7 exhibit unexpected shared delay times, this is due to a factory global tap tempo setting. To disable this and allow individual editing for these presets:
    • Select the affected preset (e.g., Preset 1).
    • Ensure the "Preset" button is illuminated.
    • Press and hold the "Type" button. Observe the "Preset" button for a quick flash (it will not rapidly blink, but briefly dim and re-illuminate).
    • Repeat this process for each of the global presets (1, 3, 5, 7) to enable independent control.
  • If the display shows "8888" or other error codes, try power cycling the unit (unplug and re-plug the power supply). If the issue persists, contact TC Electronic support.
