Bass guitar can take a lot of processing. It’s because the bass often fights against heavily distorted and harmonically rich layers of guitars or synths. So you need the tone that can cut through. The bass has to be super-consistent, and tight but it also needs to have balls in the bottom-end and pretty nasty midrange at the same time. Sometimes it needs to be almost as distorted as the synth stuff so it can't be overlooked in the mix.  Even if the bass is heavily distorted, it also has to be clear at some point so everyone knows which note is played, right? And that's why you need ToneSpot.

When a professional audio engineer is building that awesome tone in the studio, he is often running it through some heavy lifting. Blending several re-amping chains with massive filtering, heavy compression, equalization, saturation or even some multiband processing and maybe some other crazy stuff. And it is no secret that the top engineers often run the signal through their chains twice or three times in series until both the engineer and the artist are 100% satisfied with the result. So there is a lot of stuff to do when building a perfect bass guitar tone.

There are very few products tailored for bass instruments post-processing, but most of today’s engineers use a very similar workflow.

Mostly it’s not enough to run the bass through a real tube amp or guitar amp simulation plugin to get the standards we are hearing on today’s records.

At the end of the day, we need a ton of plugins, a ton of real amps, a ton of simulation plugins that eat a significant portion of CPU power.

There is a simpler solution. Tone Spot is just one processor doing everything. One missing product you need for every amp or simulation. It is a key to success full of tricks, extensive know-how and still with a lot of freedom.
