You should read these Important Safety Instructions.
Keep these instructions in a safe place.
Before using your ToneCore, carefully read the applicable items of these operating instructions and the safety suggestions.
1. Obey all warnings on the pedal and in the ToneCore Pilot's Handbook.
2. Connect optional power supply only to AC power outlets rated 100-120V or 200-240V 47-63Hz (see indications on optional power supply).
3. Do not perform service operations beyond those described in the ToneCore Pilot's Handbook. Service is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as:
•
power-supply cord or plug is damaged
•
liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus
•
the unit has been exposed to rain or moisture
•
the unit does not operate normally or changes in performance in a significant way
•
the unit is dropped or the enclosure is damaged.
4. Do not place near heat sources, such as radiators, heat registers, or appliances which produce heat. .
5. Guard against objects or liquids entering the enclosure. Do not use or place unit near water.
6. Unplug the power supply when not in use for extended periods of time. Unplug the power supply during lightning storms.
7. Clean only with a damp cloth.
8. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
9. Prolonged listening at high volume levels may cause irreparable hearing loss and/or damage. Always be sure to practice “safe listening.”

Connections and Power Indicator Light
Greetings and salutations! Thank you for inviting the
Line 6 Echo Park delay pedal into your life.
Effect On-Off / Power Indicator Light
The Power Indicator Light on your ToneCore uses
three colors to indicate the pedal’s state:
• GREEN (flashing)– Effect is engaged (on). Light
is flashing to show delay time
• AMBER (flashing)– Effect is in bypass (off). Light
is flashing to show delay time
• RED (flashing) – Batteries need replacing
This low power indication will override all other states.
Power Jack
Connect an optional ToneCore-compatible Line 6
power supply like the DC-1, and you'll never need a
9-volt battery again!

In Jacks
Use a standard guitar cable to connect your guitar, or
the output of another effect to use in combination
with your ToneCore. If you’re feeding a mono signal
to your Echo Park, use the MONO/L jack. Like most
pedals, inserting a plug into this jack will turn on
the power to your ToneCore. Disconnect both input
plugs from jacks when the ToneCore is not being
used.
Out Jacks
Use a standard guitar cable to connect to the inputs
of a guitar amp, or the inputs of another effect that
will feed your amp. For mono, use the MONO/L jack.
Foot Switch
Stomp on this to turn the effect sound processing on
and off. See Tap Tempo sectionto learn how to set
the time with your feet.

Model Switch
Give this a flick to reconfigure the virtual circuitry
inside your Echo Park, and enjoy three distinctly
different sound “flavors”.
Tape gives you classic tape echo warmth. The high
end will deteriorate with each repeat, in vintage tape
echo style. And you never have to change tapes!
Digital gives you straight up echoes, with crystal clear
digital fidelity.
Analog is designed to give a vintage analog bucket
brigade delay sound, with its darker distorted tone.

Trails Switch
Set this on to keep Echo Park’s processing engaged
while in bypass, so your echoes smoothly trail away
when you kick the effect off.

Controls
Tap Tempo
Put your foot to work and get your echoes in the
groove! Using the innovative ToneCore double-action
footswitch, you can tap a couple times and have your
echoes match your tempo. Here’s what you need to
know:
• Whether the effect is active or bypassed, you can
tap the footswitch lightly to set delay time. Your first
two taps establish the tempo. Any additional taps
within 3 seconds will be averaged in.
• Taps will be ignored if the footswitch is pressed all
the way down to turn the effect processing on/off.
• Any time the Tap Tempo switch is used to alter the
delay, the tapped value overrides the current setting
of the Time knob. Whenever the Time knob is turned,
it overrides the last value entered with the Tap Tempo
switch.
• Echo Park’s indicator light flashes the tempo in
green when the effect is on and amber when the effect
is off. The light will always flash at quarter note speed.

Detail on Tap Tempo time:
In most configurations, the delay time ranges from
53 ms min to 2500 ms max.
The exceptions are:
8th note triplet = 13 ms min to 833 ms max
8th note dotted = 30 ms min to 1875 ms max
Slap = 10 ms min to 625 ms max

Turn the knob up (clockwise) for louder echoes, or
down for quieter ones.
Repeat
You get 1 repeat at the minimum setting, and infinite
repeats when the knob is all the way up.

Time
This knob gives you a range of spacings for your echoes
from 53 milliseconds (close together) through 2.235
seconds (way far apart) per side. Turn this knob and
listen how the delay time smoothly changes when
audio is present. You can use Tap Tempo (see previous
page) to reach Echo Park’s maximum time of 2.5
seconds.

Controls
Mod
Turn this knob up to get some delicious stereo
modulation on your echoes. Each model has its own
type of stereo modulation:
•
Analog has Vibrato
•
Digital has Chorus
•
Tape has Wow & Flutter
Function Control Knob
Choices, choices! When you’re talkin’ Echo Park,
you’re talkin’ plenty of options:
• Normal: your taps are treated as quarter notes, so
you hear your echoes coming back at the same speed
you tapped the footswitch.
• Tap eighth note triplet: This setting lets you tap
quarter notes, while the echoes come back doing
8th note triplets. Sweet!
• Tap dotted eighth note: You tap quarter notes,
your echoes come back as dotted 8th notes.
• Slap: This is the place for a speedy slap back echo.
The Time knob’s range is automagically changed to

be 10 to 150 thousandths of a second. You can Tap
Tempo all 1/4 notes, and get 1/16 note echoes.
• Swell: This adds an auto volume swell along with
your echoes. Dreamy.
• Sweep: Add this sweeping filter to the feedback loop
of your echoes and you’ll be glad you did!
• Ducking: The volume of your echoes is “ducked”
(reduced) while you’re playing, and increases when
you stop. This is handy to avoid mud-tone.
• Multi 1*: Uses multiple delay “taps,” to give you a
rhythmic pattern of echoes
• Multi 2*: Another multi-tap rhythmic variation
• Ping pong*: Alternating left and right taps
• Reverse*: Just like those backwards parts on our
favorite albums, this flips your input signal around
and sends it back to you in reverse. Use it live, and
folks are sure to be impressed.
The functions marked by the * combine your left and right
inputs for processing, so the effected part of the signal will
be summed to mono, while your dry signal remains stereo.
