TC-Helicon Switch-3 Reviews

tc switch

excellent

could be better

it is useful if you have a TC amp/head/combo. But it's too big for what it is, they could have achieved something much more compact . The buttons are maybe a bit too sensitive for a pedal and sometimes i press two at the same time when i want to press only one.

Good extra for the voice live play

This is good extra to get all out of your Voice live play pedal.

(you can switch on / off delay or some other efect)

Robust pedal with metal frame.

Very easy to use

This little Switch 3 makes life with the VoiceLive Touch much easier

As a working musician I use this for live gigs with a band and as a solo artist.

Frees up my hands for playing haromica or guitar

Good strong build quality that can take a few knocks as most working band equipment does

Make sure you buy this...

I bought the Vocal unit and wondered if I was wasting money on this extra accessory but it has been a godsend as it frees my hands up and I can switch patches or turn on or off the harmony with just a tap of my foot. The chassis is rugged, the switches are quality and there is one stereo jack cable which couples this to the VoiceLive Touch Unit.

Very Usefull!

Very good material! It will last forever! Using with my Voicelive Play GTX

About this footswitch, one of the good things is its construction. is coated in metal, which will cause increased resistance to any kind of damage it may suffer. In order of the level of functionality, this machine works 100%, however, in my opinion, has some defects. To start, it is a big footswitch, causing the problem of taking up real state on the pedalboard. Another negative aspect that i have noticed was that after some use, the buttons where you click, start to get harsh, sometimes causing a wrong notion of activation or not of the effect, i mean when you click, sometimes does not seem to be the active effect, yet is enabled, missing one "click", the click that you feel when you step on the button. However, this footswitch has a very good durability.

switch 3

A great add-on to my BG250

1) toggles the mute function

2) toggles the toneprint on/off

3) switches between the 2 recent toneprints

Couple of problems though...

Firstly, despite being entirely functional, the supplied cable is a little short.

Secondly, to remedy the first problem, I tried a longer 1/4 inch jack lead but found that the pedal didn't function properly unless I was using the supplied lead, even though I tried both a whirlwind and a planet waves jack lead.

The TC Electronic Switch 3 is ideal to have with the Voicelive Touch as it leaves your hands free to play guitar, and its so easy to use, I highly recommend it,

Does what it has to do ;-)

You wanna push your gear to peak performance, squeeze every ounce of tone out of it and instantly recall the sounds you need. Switch-3 allows you to do just that with this ultra-robust control unit that is tailormade to give you extended control on your Nova System, Nova Drive, BG250 Bass Combo or BH250 Bass Micro Head.

Nothing but sturdy hard-wearing quality known from other TC products built to endure life on the road. 3-button full-metal casing standard footswitch available for Nova System, giving you remote control of Nova System features such as preset up/down, bypass, effects mute, tap tempo, etc.

When using Switch-3 with BG250 the first switch operates as a mute. The second switches the TubeDrive on and off. The third switches TonePrint on and off.

When using Switch-3 with BH250 the first switch is mute. The second switches TonePrint on and off. The third switches between the two latest TonePrints loaded into the amp, giving you the option of storing and using two TonePrints.

Perfect for TC switching

Very well made, does what it says on packaging

Good pedal - GET one!

Can be used for other applications too

Does what it is supposed to do...

Solid Product...Strong and sturdy. I use it with my TC Voice Live Touch 2. Enclosed cable is lengthy. ( Almost 6 ft)

TC Swith 3

I use it for my on stage performances along with the Create XT. I like its convience of not having to worry about pressing the wrong button on the Create XT.

This gadget goes hand-in-hand (foot and foot) ;-)with my Create XT voice processor. I´m enjoying it.

Rock and Roll!

Worth the money

Using this pedal with the voicelive gtx for looping. Makes life so much easier for looping and undoing previous loops. enables use of voicelive pedal to jump settings.

also can assign guitar boost and other cool effects to it also.

great footswitch for the money.

I bought this recently with the tc helicon voicelive touch . its a good solid pedal with a robust and sturdy box. its easy to use and switches are strong. overall a good switch pedal.and makes use of the pedal hands free alot easier.

Great accessory to the Nova

Bought this in a bundle with the TC Nova System. Essentially it allows you to gain access to more of the features in the Nova. Its built very well, will last a lifetime and the switches work well.
