Free The Tone is a brand specializing in effects pedals and pedalboards, founded by Yukihiro Hayashi, who enjoys immense trust from professional musicians in Japan.

Many people actually use the brand's products, and their quality is undeniable.

This model is Free The Tone's flagship programmable switcher.

It features a Holistic Tonal Solution circuit that operates at an internal voltage of +/-15Vdc to maximize the potential of guitars/basses and connected pedal effects and amplifiers.

This exceptionally well-designed circuit maintains the same tone quality whether bypassed or with effects active.

It can be called the pinnacle of programmable switchers.

~The following is from the manufacturer's official website~

Equipped with HTS (Holistic Tonal Solution) circuit.

The panel is tilted at a 12-degree angle to improve display visibility and footswitch operability.

The footswitches are spaced 71.5mm vertically and 80mm horizontally, and custom-made footswitches are used. They offer fast response and support quick operation.

A dedicated panel is equipped for presets and settings. The number of menu hierarchies in the edit menu has been minimized, dramatically improving usability. You won't need to spend a lot of time editing.

Two ARC-3 units can be connected and operated using the LINK function.

The MUTE LINK function allows for mute control from an external footswitch.

By switching the DISPLAY mode, you can see the program change number for each currently transmitted MIDI channel at a glance.

To prevent moisture such as sweat from directly entering the internal circuit board, the LEDs above the footswitches use lenses, and a felt sheet is attached to the back of the display.

High-strength plastic molded phone jacks are used, ensuring reliable long-term use.

Simultaneous MIDI Program Change Number Transmission Count: 8 (MIDI Transmission Channels: CH1-CH8 Fixed)

Simultaneous MIDI Control Change Number Transmission Count: 8
The signal line to the D.I., which is necessary for bassists, has also been considered. A terminal is provided to output the signal immediately after passing through the HTS input circuit, and this output line can be linked with a MUTE switch.

A MUTE circuit is included. This function allows simultaneous muting of the output to the amplifier and the output to the D.I.

Uses a universal AC adapter and is compatible with AC 100V-240V.

A LOCK function for the control buttons is equipped to prevent accidental operation of the control panel during performance.

There are some minor scratches and signs of use. There are many scratches on the side, but it is in good working order.
