2. Introduction
The original HALL OF FAME REVERB delivered some of the most iconic reverb
sounds of all time, but HALL OF FAME 2 X4 REVERB extends that legacy of
innovation dramatically. Essentially, HALL OF FAME 2 X4 REVERB’s incredible
MASH technology adds an expression pedal to a world-class reverb stompbox
that not only responds to your touch and saves precious pedalboard space – but
blends the celestial world of reverb with the ultimate in personal expression.
Add a scintillating new Shimmer eect, and you've got a reverb pedal unlike any
other – the awe-inspiring HALL OF FAME 2 X4 REVERB.
2.1 Unpacking
Your TC Electronic eect pedal box should contain the following items:
• Your TC Electronic eect pedal
• 1 USB cable (Type A to Mini-B)
• 1 TC Electronic sticker
• 9 V power supply
• 2 rubber feet
• Quick Start Guide
Inspect all items for signs of transit damage. In the unlikely event of transit
damage, inform the carrier and supplier. If damage has occurred, keep all
packaging, as it can be used as evidence of excessive handling force.
2.3 Setting Up
Connect the included 9 V power supply, or a regulated 9 V power supply with at
least 300 mA and the following symbol (center negative) to the DC input socket of
your TC Electronic eect pedal.
• Plug the power supply into a power outlet.
• Connect your instrument to the input jack using a ¼" jack cable.
• Connect the output jack to your amplier using a ¼" jack cable.
• The pedal also supports stereo operation (see Chapter 4.2).
3. TonePrint
This TC Electronic product supports TonePrints. To learn more about TonePrints,
go to tcelectronic.com/toneprint/
3.1 What are TonePrints?
When you look at your TC Electronic eect pedal, you’ll only see a few knobs.
For some pedals, it’s just one knob. So – one knob, one function, right?
Actually, there’s a lot more to it than meets the eye.
Star-tweaked signature sounds
When TC Electronic builds an eect pedal, the relationship between its controls
and many parameters “under the hood” are dened by developers, musicians
and product specialists who live and breathe sound. This gives you an excellent
starting point: a great-sounding pedal with well-balanced controls.
But wouldn’t it be cool to have world-famous guitar players – guys like
Paul Gilbert, Guthrie Govan, John Petrucci or Steve Vai – virtually rewire your
reverb pedal, dening what should happen “behind the scenes”?
And how about doing this yourself?
This is exactly what TonePrint allows you to do.
TC Electronic is working with top guitar players who explore a pedal’s hidden
tonal potential, redening the controls and creating their personal TonePrints.
And we are making these custom TonePrints available to you. Uploading them
to your pedal is really easy (see chapter 3.2 for details) – and with the amazing
TonePrint app, you can even create your own signature pedal, tweaked
specically to your liking.
You can change the TonePrints in your pedal as often as you like, and the best
part: It’s totally free.
2.2 True Bypass
Here at TC, we have a simple philosophy: When you are using one of our products,
you should hear something great – and when it’s o, you shouldn’t hear it at
all. This is why this pedal sports True Bypass. When it is bypassed, it is really o
and has zero inuence on your tone, resulting in optimum clarity and zero loss of
high end.
Sometimes, it is advisable to switch an eect pedal from True Bypass to Buered
Bypass mode. For more information, see “6.2 Switching the pedal from True
Bypass to Buered Bypass”.

3.2 Transferring TonePrints to your pedal
TonePrints can be transferred via USB connection or via TCs
“Beaming” technology.
Transferring via USB – step by step
• Connect the pedal to the power supply.
• Connect your pedal via USB cable to your computer or smar tphone/tablet
(use a “USB On-The-Go” adapter for Android devices and the Camera
Connection Kit for iOS devices).
• Launch the TonePrint app and follow the instructions to turn the TonePrint
selector knob to a TonePrint slot.
• Find the TonePrint you want to audition or use. You can browse TonePrints
by Artist or Product (i.e. pedal type). Browsing by Artist or Product is
selected in the Settings part of the app (press the “ ” icon).
• Listen to the new sound through your pedal. As long as you’re
connected via USB, selecting a TonePrint will change the sound in your
product immediately.
• Alternatively, you can create your own TonePrint using the editor part of the
app – see section 3.3.
• Press “Store in Pedal” to store the TonePrint of your choice in the selected
TonePrint slot.
• Turn the TonePrint selector knob to a dierent slot if you want to store more
TonePrints.
3.3 Editing TonePrints with the TonePrint App
The TonePrint app allows you to use TonePrints created by your favorite guitar
and bass players. But this is only the start. Using the TonePrint editor within the
app, you can create your very own signature pedal sounds. All of TCs own ar tist
TonePrints in the Library tab (or alternatively all TonePrints in the Templates tab)
can be edited, as can your own User TonePrints. In order to use the editor the
TonePrint pedal must be connected to your computer or smartphone/tablet via
USB, like described previously. Simply navigate to a TonePrint or Template and
click on the “ ” icon to enter the editor part of the app.
Features of the editor part of the app
• Use the TonePrint app to build your own custom sounds and save them in
your pedal or as User TonePrints which will show up in the User tab.
• Enjoy complete control over all eect parameters and eect behavior - it's
your vision, your sound.
• Customize knob function and knob range to suit your needs and sounds.
• Audition your sonic creations in real time - make changes on the y and
listen to results immediately.
• Works with PC, Mac, and smartphones (iOS and Android).
Beaming TonePrints to your pedal – step by step
• When not connected via USB, simply launch the TonePrint app on your
smartphone.
• Navigate to the TonePrint you want to use. You can browse by Artist or by
Product (as described above).
• Plug your guitar or bass into the pedal.
• Turn your TonePrint pedal on.
• Turn up the volume on your instrument and set the pickup selec tor to
one pickup.
• Hold the speaker of your smartphone next to the chosen pickup and touch
“Beam to Pedal”. Follow instructions on your screen. A series of green ashes
of the LED will conrm successful beaming.
