Rubbersoul Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Hi, I have a TC Electronic Spectracomp. I have just recently started to experiment with a fretless bass and I'm struggling to find a decent toneprint that works in that context. Does anybody have any experience with the Spectracomp in this situation? Failing that, does anybody just have any good generic compressor settings that would be good for fretless? I want the sustain to be pretty much infinite (jk, but you get the idea). Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boodang Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 (edited) Try the captain east tone print, I use this on my fretless. It’s not too aggressive and just seems to solidify the core tone. Having said that, if you want infinite sustain it might be too subtle, in which case edit the tone print and increase the blend from 39% to something much higher.

Boodang Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Also, ‘the trapdoor’ toneprint is worth a punt as it’s a full on aggressive comp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubbersoul Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 I like the Captain East one. I don't seem to have an edit option for it though because it isn't one of the TC templates. All I have in the app is a video icon and the star. Tried the Trapdoor, did not sound as good to my ears - way too aggressive. Anyway, thanks for the advice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
