Configuració
Connexió d'alimentació
The Infinite Sample Sustainer pedal requires a 9V DC power supply with a center-negative polarity. Ensure the power supply provides at least 100mA. Connect the power supply to the DC input jack located on the rear of the pedal.
Connexions d'àudio
- Connecteu la vostra guitarra o un altre instrument a IN jack on the right side of the pedal using a standard 1/4" instrument cable.
- Connecteu el FORA presa al costat esquerre del pedal al vostre amplifier or the next pedal in your signal chain using another 1/4" instrument cable.
- For advanced routing, utilize the ENVIAR i TORNAR jacks to integrate external effects into the pedal's internal FX loop. This allows you to apply other effects specifically to the sustained signal.
Connexió USB
The USB port on the rear of the pedal is used for connecting to a computer for firmware updates and TonePrint editing. Use a standard USB cable to connect the pedal to your computer.

Resolució de problemes
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| No fa so quan s'acciona el pedal. | Incorrect power supply, faulty cables, incorrect connections, Level knob set too low. | Verify power supply (9V DC, center-negative, 100mA minimum). Check all instrument cables. Ensure IN and OUT jacks are correctly connected. Increase LEVEL knob. |
| Sustain cuts out too quickly. | DECAY knob set too low, LATCH/MOMEN switch set to MOMEN. | Increase DECAY knob setting. If continuous sustain is desired, ensure LATCH/MOMEN switch is set to LATCH. |
| Sustained sound is distorted or noisy. | Input signal too hot, faulty power supply, ground loop. | Reduce input signal level from your instrument or preceding pedal. Try a different power outlet or isolated power supply. Check for ground loop issues in your setup. |
| Cannot load TonePrints. | USB connection issue, outdated TonePrint app, incorrect pedal mode. | Ensure USB cable is securely connected. Update the TC Electronic TonePrint app to the latest version. Follow app instructions for loading TonePrints. |
