Using the TonePrint App

Download the free TC Electronic TonePrint app for your smartphone (available for iOS and Android).
Select a desired TonePrint from the app's library.
Hold your phone's speaker close to your bass pickup and "beam" the TonePrint to the pedal. The pedal's LED will flash to confirm successful transfer.

Multiband Compression

The SPECTRACOMP utilizes multiband compression, which processes different frequency ranges of your bass signal independently. This results in a more natural and transparent compression, preserving your low-end while controlling dynamics across the entire frequency spectrum, leading to a more consistent and punchy sound.

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your pedal, follow these maintenance guidelines:

Keep the pedal clean and dry. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, humidity, or direct sunlight.
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning the exterior. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals.
Ensure all cable connections (power and audio) are secure to prevent signal loss, intermittent operation, or unwanted noise.
When not in use for extended periods, disconnect the power supply.

Check for faulty audio cables, which can introduce noise.
Some TonePrints may emphasize certain frequencies, potentially highlighting existing noise in your bass or amplifier setup. Try a different TonePrint or adjust your bass/amp Settings.

Ensure your smartphone speaker is held directly over your bass pickup during the beaming process.
Increase the volume on your smartphone to its maximum setting during transfer.
Ensure no other audio is playing on your phone and that the environment is relatively quiet.
