What do you thing of this new crazy bit of tech from IK Multimedia? Artificial Intelligence in a guitar pedal, are you kidding me?! 🤯 Let us know your thoughts! ⚡
Despite the plethora of tones and fun you've just given us, the information you've given about how to use it live is better than all the other Tonex videos I've watched. And that's what I really wanted! Thanks Dagan!
Bought a Tonex - sold my full Kemper rig. I already had some effects pedals . But amp for amp sim the Tonex pedal sounds as passable as my Kemper did. And it fits in my backpack or case
I think for us marginal to not so good players it's a great piece of kit just having the ability to tweak that quality of prests at that price point 👌 👍
I have Amplitube Max. Can I put any rig that I had arranged in Amplitube into this pedal? I'm a bit confused if this software is limited by a number of pedals that can be used simultaneously or number of pedals. Can I put two or three simultaneous chains as in Amplitube? How about mic emulation? I'm interested as I love Ik Multimedia products.
For those of us that aren’t tech wizards, I have a helix floor which I love… would this be of any use to me? Would you use it with helix? Grateful for advice.
Apart from no effects loop, no XLR’s out and no onboard effects (of which I have many pedals), I’m thinking “what’s my Kemper worth, and how much can I get for it”…
@DaganWilkin I uploaded a Randy Rhoads capture to Tone Net last week, did you tried it? That would make me very happy 🙂Look for "Blizzard of Randy Rhoads" 🤘
@@robgroden - Exactly. In my case I'm just buying an HX Effects and a Tonex - a poor man's Fractal, at a fraction of the price. The Tonex will go into the loop on HX Effects
Can you plug it in directly in guitar cabinet and use all those great sounds at neigbour friendly volumes, which is the biggest issue with my tube amps. Thank you.
Can anybody I mean anybody tell me if I can use a tonex with a power amp straight into my guitar cabinet like a Seymour Duncan power stage 100 watt stereo Poweramp to power the tonex straight into my guitar cabinet my 412 guitar cabinet with celestion speakers
No modulation fx like delays and chorus, etc, and no send/return...LOL. Should be called Version 0.5.....It s a real deal breaker for me anyway, otherwise, this looks and sounds great. Nice piece of kit
The Kemper and QC do have an fx loop but still you cant place the fx between the pre amp and the power amp. Ok you can in the QC when using a preamp capture and power amp capture seperate but who really does that anyway. And they never advertised it to be an all in one unit so whx call it 0.5??
Agree. The only way to fill in the all in one gaps would be with Amplitube 5 on your computer or ios device, but since I'm Android and would like an all in one box solution in addition to a fully integrated DAW solution, this is just half the solution that is needed. Make a somewhat larger version that has full Amplitube 5 capabilities and more I/O like XLR outs and I'll be happy to let go of my Quad Cortex.
@@Tiger1016. That s what i use for this kind of scenario, bias fx, th-u and amplitube. Otherwise, real amps and cabinets, which is the real shit by miles. These things will be the future, though, it s cristal clear ;)
Dude, I need this box! EL84's or 6L6's? Carbon free? Are the frequencies copacetic? Is it transgender friendly? Can it get Eddys "negro sound?" Asking for a friend
By choosing to use amp sims I reaffirm I exist and not living in an AI simulation of reality. Who in their right mind of an AI simulation would choose ToneX over a wall of tube amps. Take that Morphius!

Does it feel slightly digital or would you genuinely not know the difference between this and real pedals?
Champion 🥳
In a blind test i think I'd struggle! The technology is just insane these days!
80s shred? That’ll be 80s hero then 😂
First modeler (yea I know...) I have liked.
Despite the plethora of tones and fun you've just given us, the information you've given about how to use it live is better than all the other Tonex videos I've watched. And that's what I really wanted!
Thanks Dagan!
Kemper and Quad Cortex are going to have a tough time justifying $2-3,000 for their boxes now. $400 is an insane value!
dagan always has so much fun in his reviews. i think most of us want to have this much fun
Bought a Tonex - sold my full Kemper rig. I already had some effects pedals . But amp for amp sim the Tonex pedal sounds as passable as my Kemper did. And it fits in my backpack or case
Your enthusiasm is always infectious, I just got mine ..still in its plastic hitting it after practice this morning ..thanks for the great vid

solid state has come along a hell of a long way in the last few years
Dude, that was totally hysterical 😂😂Epic 80's showmanship. You're awesome
I pulled the trigger, had to buy one superb device ! But that Kramer is Mint !
Just bought one from guitar center used.Great video
well, I know what I'll be buying a few months from now
Russell Brand !!! We love you!!!
Dagan is not an idiot though.
You got me acting like a robot, my metal brain corodes !
I just ordered the pedal thanks for the breakdown!
Dagan got chops!
Incredible gear! Really interested testing this unit for 30 days 👍👍
Great Show, Gotta go sink my head in Ice water before it " EXPLODES !!! "

No this is just the Tonex module
Dagan can you demo it through a miked cab? Some presets are really good, but how does it sound live, especially for ACDC sounds?
We did try it through a mic'd cab with a power amp and it sounded awesome! We'll try and get a full video of that sometime in the future 🤘
A screen menu like Zoom multi-stomp series Is still affordable and yet more user friendly than this. Great video.
Im in. From my daw to the stage. This and my HX Stomp w my midi strip.
This with the HX Stomp would be the ultimate combo!
But this nor have an effects loop right?
Ougggh ok... But the hx stomp has it!!!! I get it!
Amped 2 vs tonex pedal.....please make that happen!!!
For those of us that aren’t tech wizards, I have a helix floor which I love… would this be of any use to me? Would you use it with helix?
Grateful for advice.
The helix should be able to do what this can besides the tone capture features
Apart from no effects loop, no XLR’s out and no onboard effects (of which I have many pedals), I’m thinking “what’s my Kemper worth, and how much can I get for it”…
There’s no need for an fx loop. Time based, modulation & reverb sounds best in post processing anyway, i.e. after the cab
Love dagan, and so does my gf lol love from Australia mate
@DaganWilkin I uploaded a Randy Rhoads capture to Tone Net last week, did you tried it? That would make me very happy 🙂Look for "Blizzard of Randy Rhoads" 🤘
Is it the same size as the hx stomp? (thinking on building a new mini pedalboard 🤔)
What kind of speaker is this plugged into?
It's plugged into a Yamaha PA Cab, but you're hearing it direct, the PA cab is so Dagan can hear it in the room 🤘
The link to the product page doesn’t work
So is this meant to be used as an all in one type thing instead of an amp, or as an addition?
Whatever you'd prefer! You can use it as an Amp replacement & Overdrive/Distortion/EQ Pedal replacement, or use it in conjunction with an amp! 🤘
@@PMTVUK cool - thanks again guys!
I just ordered one. I plan on using it in the FX loop of my Line 6 Helix. Helix will do all of the effects and Tonex will we the “amp.”
@@robgroden Saw people pairing it with the HX Stomp earlier, looks and sounds sweet.
@@robgroden - Exactly. In my case I'm just buying an HX Effects and a Tonex - a poor man's Fractal, at a fraction of the price.
The Tonex will go into the loop on HX Effects
Do i need to also pay $300 for ToneX software to use the $400 pedal or does the pedal include a licence for it?
It should be included
Edit: Tonex Max software is included
I think your 80shred is 80s hero
Shit.....I wish this was out sooner I would of bought .,...got the velaton gp200 now hum bug
how to use delay pedal with it?
You put the out of the pedal into the in of your delay pedal
Am I the only one that wants a case for this?
Pelican Case
Can you plug it in directly in guitar cabinet and use all those great sounds at neigbour friendly volumes, which is the biggest issue with my tube amps. Thank you.
Not direct. It would have to go into an external power amp, or the Effects Loop 'Return' of an amp, and then into a cab. 👌
Coukd get a small power amp like the Seymour Duncan Powerstage to send a signal to a guitar cab.
Can anybody I mean anybody tell me if I can use a tonex with a power amp straight into my guitar cabinet like a Seymour Duncan power stage 100 watt stereo Poweramp to power the tonex straight into my guitar cabinet my 412 guitar cabinet with celestion speakers
good job, jack sparrow!
No 80shred on the one I bought????????????????????
What are you playing through to get the amp in the room sound so you can monitor yourself?
He says it in the video. Directly into his pa system.
At around 5:20
No delay. Oh no. How could they not add delay. Even cheep $30 effect box have delay. But good video

all of a sudden a hundred different line 6 helix sprouted from nowhere.
All of the sudden lmfao it’s not all of the sudden,it’s been since the introduction of it
Actually I dont see people getting rid of their Helix, they are combining them, Tonex doesnt do effects really, besides a little reverb and comp. If anyone is selling I would guess its Kemper guys
I love my Helix.
thumbs down from the vintage amp market
