TC Electronic “Hall of Fame” Product review On a Sunday afternoon in beautiful Southern California I met up with a very close friend Derrick “Dock” Murdock who was the bass player of the Tonight Show band with Kevin Eubanks. Derrick has played alongside BB King, Frank Gambale, Micheal Bolton, Sheena Easton and Chuck Berry to name a few of his credits. Derrick has been a close friend for many years, as we sat down at a restaurant to enjoy dinner, talk about old times of when we use to tour together somehow we got on the topic of guitar and bass gear. We started discussing TC Electronic Hall of Fame Reverb pedal that has different presets and 100% full control knobs with (Tone Print), that is special software that is built into the unit for customization of sound written by Artist such as Derrick in which can be beamed to the unit by a Smartphone or Tablet using the (Tone Print) App by TC Electronic. The way it’s beamed to the unit is through the (pick up) of the Guitar or Bass which sounds like an old school dial up modem in which Derrick and I laughed about …lol. Once it has been beamed to the unit the sounds are limitless with many sounds to download from various artists. As a guitarist and studio musician I have used the TC Electronic Hall of Fame Pedal on endless recordings it has 24bit digital sound which is very clean and quiet. As I discuss the product with Derrick he told me that he has written several downloads for other TC Electronic pedals with (Tone Print). Derrick Continues to Perform and Tour with The Following TC Electronic Pedals: RS210, RS212, RS410 and the RH450.

Likes and Dislikes Likes:

Derrick, what do you like about the TC Electronic Pedals? “They are fast and efficient I can download new tones using the (Tone Print) in between songs and sets, they are built well very solid pedals” and they are one of a kind!” What I really like about these pedals are that they are durable easy to use and road worthy for touring with a “true bypass” switch and very quiet to operate with minimal noise.

Dislikes:

I really can’t find anything negative to say about these pedals as they are built like mini tanks. Special Thanks to Derrick “Dock” Murdock for being part of this Product review. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derrick_Murdock
