Good Octaver

I bought the SubnUp Octaver by T C Electronic because I was looking for a good Octaver pedal that didn't break the bank, this works. When it came I went right to work finding a place on my pedalboard for it. With the knobs all set to 12 O'clock I put it first in the effects chain. I turned it on and it was not all that I hoped for, atone suck! So, I placed it in another location,same thing except it was noisy. I tried it in several locations and was greeted with noise and tone loss. Put it on it's own through my effects loop and that didn't help. So, I called my sales rep and explained the issue. My sales rep forwarded me to the tech department and after several minutes of explaining the issue they decided that the pedal was defective and sent me a replacement. The new pedal arrived in a few days and, due to a busy schedule, hooked it up as soon as possible. The replacement is much better, although the videos that describe the Sub n Up should go into a little more detail as best placement and the reason for the placement. All in all, I like it and it does exactly what I need it for.

Clean polyphonic octave pedal

Takes chords and multiple strings like it's nothing, works on bass guitar below low E, I play in drop A and it tracks pretty well all the way down that low. Octave up and down is clean, adjustable, and awesome.
I still haven't played with the software that connects to it and wonder if I even have to, because it's already awesome.

Tone Print = Game Changer

I've always been intimidated by effects pedals that you can plug into a computer to download new tones. I assumed that once this arrived, I would only use the poly and classic modes - which alone are well worth the price. However, the people at tc have made the Toneprint option ridiculously easy to use. You just need to hold your phone up to your pickups to upload new tones. My phone is 6 years old and the app worked flawlessly. I feel like I just put dozens of new pedals on my board by adding this one to the arsenal.

possible my favorite pedal on the board

great options on this pedal for parameters to mess with. keep in mind the size of the speaker it is coming from. really does have the ability to deliver frequencies a lot of guitar amps will struggle with. works best with a DI set up in my experience. it still sounds great on my marshall origin 50 but DI is another beast

Fun pedal

This pedal has some great options. I have not tried the TonePrint options yet, but just changing the Dry/Sub/Sub2/Up volumes can give you a myriad of sounds, including some very organ-like tones. It's a fun pedal and combines well with OD/distortion/fuzz/wah/auto-wah pedals. I would say if I were playing out, I would not bring it because it is not something you can use for more than an odd solo or song, but it's a good one to add to the practice room pedal board to mix things up, or for some studio work.

What Do Our In-house Gear Experts Think?

Michael Bolton

I've been a praise and worship bassist for well over a decade and have experimented with dozens of effects. I grabbed a TC Electronic Sub 'N' Up when it was first released, and it has been an important part of my sound ever since. I use it on songs that start soft but have a big hit. That extra low end really makes an impact! The Sub 'N' Up is more than a simple octaver too. TonePrint lets me dig into the pedal's full capabilities, dialing in tones ranging from organs (super handy in church) to hard synthesizers. This allows me to be extra creative in my home studio.
