TimeLine MX Core Pack
The Core Pack includes 31 dialed-in starting points for the most common delay types we use in worship music, covering our normal rhythmic delays, ambient delays, dual delays, and some artist starting points.

Getting Started: A Read Me file is included to walk you through how to import the presets, explain the preset names, and help you get the most out of the pack. Connect your powered TimeLine MX to your computer using a USB-C cable, then use Strymon’s Nixie 2 software to back up your pedal, import the presets, and save them to your chosen pedal slots.
You may find these presets are exactly what you need, but don’t be afraid to experiment! Keep a copy of the originals and save your own versions in separate slots. And if you need a hand, I’m always happy to help.
Coram Deo,
