The low-end shaper you need?

You might have thought that bass guitar amp and effect sims would be enough to give you the low-end tone you’re looking for, but there’s a good chance that this won’t be the case. Riding to the rescue is Audified, which reckons that its ToneSpot plugin can sort you out.

Described as a Swiss Army Knife for tone hunters, this is said to be suitable for use in all kinds of genres, and is tailored specifically for post-processing bass. ToneSpot contains musically-labelled sections and controls, which should make it easier for you to dial-in the sound you’re seeking.

Could this be a one-stop bass processing solution? You can download a demo and find out for yourself, while the full version is currently on sale at $49 (regular price is $99). ToneSpot is available for PC and Mac in VST/AU/AAX formats, and you can find out more on the Audified website.
