12 TC1210-DT
Thank you for purchasing the TC1210 spatial expander. Much like the other modules in
the TC ICON series, you now have access to one of the most legendary modulation eff ects
ever created, in a form factor that suits modern studio production much better than the
original. Continue through this Quick Start Guide to get things set up, and don't forget to
download the full manual from tcelectronic.com for all the in-depth explanations.

Software Download and Installation

The TC1210 plug-in installer can be downloaded from the following page:
www.tcelectronic.com/TC1210-dt/support/
The plug-in is free and can be installed on an unlimited number of computers, but does
require the TC1210 hardware unit to operate the main parameters.
Save the installer fi le (.exe or .dmg fi le) in a convenient location on your hard drive.
Double click the installer and follow the instructions to install the plug-in.
Connection
Getting the TC1210 up and running couldn't get any easier. Plug the included USB cable
into the unit's rear micro-USB port, and connect the other end to a free USB port on your
computer. The TC1210 is bus powered so no other power cables are necessary, and no
additional drivers need to be manually installed.

The TC1210 will light up upon successful connection. You can now apply the plug-in to a
channel in your DAW to begin using the eff ect. This process may vary slightly depending
on your software, but generally should require these steps:
• Select a channel or bus in your DAW to which you would like to add the eff ect
• Access the mixer page where you should see a section dedicated to eff ect slots
• Open the menu where you can select from a list of eff ect types, which probably
includes many stock plugins that are included with the DAW. There should be
submenu to view general VST/AU/AAX options.
• The plug-in will likely be found in a dedicated TC ELECTRONIC folder. Select the
TC1210 and it will now be added to the signal chain.
Double click on the eff ect slot that contains the TC1210 to view the plug-in UI. There
should be a green link icon at the bottom, and text that indicates successful connection.
