12 TC8210 User Manual
MOD RATE
The MOD rate sets the speed of the modulation applied via the hardware unit's
MOD parameter.
The Mod Rate parameter has two options: 1 FAST or 0 SLOW.
The desired option can be selected using the mouse by click-and-dragging on
the red numeric value, while moving the mouse. Alternatively, click and hold
the current option (in white text), and select the other option from a small
drop-down menu.
DIFFUSE
The DIFFUSE parameter adjusts the diuseness of the overall reverb sound.
Depending on the Reverb Type, there may be more or less “structure” in the
sound, which can be smoothed by increasing DIFFUSE.
The Diuse parameter can vary from 0 to 10 (0 to 100%), in steps of 1 (10%).
The desired value can be selected using the mouse by click-and-dragging
on the red numeric value, while moving the mouse. Alternatively, click and
hold the current % value (in white text), and select the desired value from a
drop-down menu.
Preset Section
The TC8210 comes with an extensive set of factory presets.
Presets can be selected by clicking in the PRESET area, and selecting the options
from a drop down menu.
Presets can be saved as favorites using the ASSIGN button.
User presets can also be created and saved.
Note: If a preset is loaded, and then any of the controls is adjusted, the text of the
current preset name will change to ITALICS as a reminder that there has been a
change.
See Chapter 5 for more details regarding presets.
Bottom Section
The bottom section of the plug-in user interface displays the connection status as
well as plug-in instance name, and several other options.
The green chain icon indicates successful connection between the hardware
unit and the plug-in. Connection issues will be indicated by yellow or red icons;
see Chapter 3 for details.
The current name of the plug-in instance appears in the middle eld. If the DAW
is able to provide the name of the track where the plug-in instance is inserted,
the plug-in instance will be named after the track name. The instance can be
renamed by clicking the pencil icon.
If you install the plug-in without ever had a hardware unit connected to your
computer, a red dot will appear on the shopping cart icon. This will link you to
more information about buying the TC8210 unit. Once the plug-in detects a
connected hardware unit, the red dot will disappear.
The Settings "gear" icon accesses a menu with several links and options.
• • This user manual is available, along with links to the TC Electronic
website, relevant news, signature artist presets, and the user
license agreement.
• • If a red dot appears over the Settings icon, a new version of the plug-in
or rmware may be available. Click “Check for Updates” to download
and install the new le. See Chapter 6 for details.
• • With the “Help” option selected, hovering the mouse over items in the
plug-in window will give a brief description of the parameter’s function.
• • With the “Take over on insert” option selected, when a new instance
of the plug-in is inserted on a track or bus, that instance will take
over immediately.
• • With the “Take over on focus” option selected, the currently viewed
plug-in instance will take over control of the physical hardware unit as
soon as it is brought into focus.
