HW, Sooze, and Jon 2 discuss ToneX Everything Bundle from Tone Junkie becoming the most popular item the Tone Junkie Store last month.
Tone X Everything Pack: tonejunkiestore.com/tonex
*_The price of entry for premium amp modeling has been way out of reach for most people that have wanted it. ToneX got it right by stripping all the excess stuff most people don’t care about and just focused on the amps. It was a paradigm shift in the guitar world when it released._*
Yep this right here 👆🏼
I own a kemper, i still like it, but the amp sounds are just better in the ToneX. I miss Kemper FX though.
Been saying this since the second the One came out. It’s the best sounding, smallest, and most affordable option. I knew it’d take over, and rightly so!
Maybe Strymonn and UA were wrong when they thought that people want SIMPLE. Maybe only some people want simple, but maybe MORE people want FLEXIBLE.
Flexible and perfect.
it’s been a year since I got the Tonex and I am not looking back for the next while. Helix sounds good in the mix but I could not get the feel as I did with Tonex. Had used Kemper as well, it was good but it was the church’s and I really didn’t get a chance to tweak it to my liking. Amazing time to be alive!
Got the line 6,BUT NOW I MUST GET THIS.
I wish this battery powered as an option, or at least rechargeable. I love AmpliTube 5 and would’ve bought one in a minute for taking to the park. Can anyone hip me to good portable options in this regard? Thanks!
As a Generation X member I feel might at home with the UA stuff at least initially but I see your point
Tonex has been great to bring profiling to the masses, but what has always turned me off about it is that unless you have your own amp collection you are reliant on other people to hopefully create the sound that works with the rest of your rig. This is why I prefer modellers. Are profilers more accurate? Probably but that doesn’t matter if I can dial in the sound that suits my guitars and my picking style and sounds and feels good . I think this is one of the reasons the Boss IR2 has been so successful. Same price as Tonex One and pretty much covers all bases you need.
Use the tones in the stomp effects loop, the best of both worlds
Great discussion! Its obvious the capture tech is where tone is going. Line 6 and many others do effects all over the place. But ToneX opened up a whole new world of tone capabilities for the amp.
Honestly I use like 3 captures. I have the large ToneX model and honestly wish I had the ToneX One because I don't do any captures. Having extra knobs is nice but I run reverbs, delays, and other effects into it. So I don't actually need the built in reverbs. Also if you are a bedroom player like I am I just run that into my computer or Ableton Push 3 and just use those reverbs and delays.
I hold off on getting a ToneX One until I can find one used. The Boss IR-2 is supposed to be a good device also, and it is in the price range of the ToneX One. I might just get them both if I can find them used at a decent price.
Getting the new ToneX-One and the everything pack was a no brainer. The price of the pedal and the pack was still WAY less than any other good quality modeling product.
I like these kind of discussions, I learn so much from them.
The fact that you can share almost everything software related regarding the ToneX may have put it on such a high spot, I agree with you. What I have missed in this conversation is the fact that IK Multimedia is a software based company that has started to make hardware at some point. So they have a very stable software platform.
I have the original ToneX, line 6 and the Fractal FM9. Of all 3, I still like the software of the FM9 the most (maybe due to the fact that I use the FM9 the most). The line 6 software is very user friendly. In the beginning, I had a lot of issue with the Tone X software regarding connectivity. I had contact support several time to solve the issue. Now it is more stable.
To conclude, they are great guitar processors. The fact that you can buy presets, IR;'s etc make them even greater. My number one board is stil the FM9. I'm so grateful that TJ offers stuff for Fractal too now. I have already bought the whole package (for Tone X too).
Really glad you enjoyed it!
I’m enjoying the tonex. Possible topic I would be interested in is unique pickup wiring options. Not having access to several nice guitars, I would like to make my PRS CE DW the most versatile it could be.
Ooo that’s a good one 👍
HOw about Tank G?
Please Do some of the older Kemper Releases as Tonex captures, ie Bend sun amps, lowman amps, AC30/ 15, Loanster, Stu G, Big Hat
We definitely want to do this!
The ToneJunkie everything pack is amazing. My favorites? The Twin Reverb 15 and DMBL ODS 124 are both absolutely outstanding. Hopefully IK will make the Tonex software easier to use.
Great choices 👌
Agreed on the software 🙄
I just bit the bullet and bought your Tonex "Everything" pack... saw the EOFY price of $99USD and had to give it a go. I just picked up a Tonex One on the 2nd hand maket for $220AUD ($146USD) so im less then $250USD for an insane amount of tonal options 😎🤝❤
Right on! Hope you enjoy it
Until they make a floorboard that is all in one like a Helix, I can't do ToneX. So over wiring up pedal boards, just wanna plonk a Helix down and be done with it all.
Each to their own. If you'd ever played one gig with stage divers you'd never even consider putting an expensive unit like that out on stage. Just a sturdy midi board with protection above the connector for the 20m midi cable with power included for me.
Great show today!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
does the kemper or tonex everything pack include the Metal Junkies amps?
No, the Metal Junkie packs are sold separately.
ToneX One for $179 + Ampero Mini for $229 (or some other multifx of your choosing) gives you the whole rig for just over $400.
Exactly. I've just got the Tonex one and run it in the loop of a Headrush MX5 (got that used on ebay).
Drives before the Tonex, delay etc after.
Great for ToneJunkie as a business, your revenue is going through the roof. For me though, I will always prefer my kemper to tonex, not because it sounds "more accurate", I agree that actually the TONEX sounds more accurate. But I actually prefer the kemper sound and feel and all the toneshaping features kemper gives you are invaluable(like direct blend and cab hi shift and so on). I feel like it's still a category of one.
That's awesome - Kemper does have a sound of its own, and I also really love it, especially playing live.
Ha! I did it!! I have 13 pedals and none are over $179. Not counting the CE-2 that I got in 1984 for somewhere around $20 the cheapest is an MXR Classic Overdrive that was on sale for $40.
Amazing! 😊
I bought your ToneX everything pack last month.
Nice! Hope you dig it
@@thesoozeTJ Yeah I'm digging it! I'm digging the whole ToneX thing. It really goes well with my setup here (Helix, HX Stomp, Aeros Loop Studio).
Great discussion guys!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm looking at the prices of tonex packs, $30, for one tone, makes it kind of a gamble. I mean if I was guaranteed to buy one or maybe two packs and be happy, but it seems like a more expensive IR exercise
Everything Pack is $99 (Which is why it's so popular) also the 30% off code makes the packs $20 or so. Packs usually have multiple speaker and mic options, amps have more than one tone so it's not really one tone you're buying. It's a representation of the whole amp.
You really don't need to buy anything though. There are tones of free captures on Tone.net that we offer and there is a free 65 Deluxe, AC30 and Badcat C15 at the bottom of the ToneX section so spending money is really optional and just for people who want to try more stuff out.
these have a significantly greater effect on your tone than IRs
Buddy if you can’t catch a deal at Tone Junkiet hen you’re just doing it wrong.
IKM PR you can find here 😅
Yea my board is about 5k. And I dont use any bougie classic unobtanium pedals either.
You have way more Kemper captures than ToneX captures, so how are they the same price for the everything pack?
Because I made them both $99 to see how they would sell.
@@ToneJunkieTV not knocking it, just curious. I picked up the Kemper Everything bundle a while back and it’s great. Found you guys via your free ToneX Deluxe Reverb pack and the tubescreamer patch in that is one of my favourites. Keep up the great work.
i hated my tone x one i traded it the next day i had nothing but issues
Whoa - what kind of issues?
@@thesoozeTJ well it did not load the tone proper or something it would just buzz and the amp would not make the proper tone it was liek more of a stock tone when seeing what you wanted to load on to it
@@leighton138 ahh yeah gotcha
Much respect for the Tone X but no way it will work for me. I gotta have an
“all in one” unit. I have bought and sold pedals for years. With the Kemper I have endless pedal options. I add a few pedals just a few favorites but never a pedal board.
Funny thing is, amps were never all in one. For me as a stereo rigger even Kemper wouldn't be all in one.
I understand all of that but how do we make sure that Tonex users understand that Kemper users are still better people?
Maybe you could at least gatekeep some of the best new packs?
what?! lol
😂
I have a tonex and kemper, and while tonex is really a great tool, Kemper is the best! You can’t beat Kemper amps or effects. Especially after downloading Tone Junkies liquid profiles!
I never owned a Kemper or an Axe FX but I spent some time on the Fractal forum. Those people were so incredibly exceptional that it turned me off from even buying a unit 😂
Exactly. I am fine with my Boss Katana Air, Boss Pocket GT, and Digitech RP360XP, and running Carla and Guitarix and NAM on my Linux PC. I am not wasting tons of money on a difference in sound you can barely hear when you A/B it, can't hear in a mix or live, and only %1 percent can even hear the difference of the units by themselves. I rather spend my time money on making myself a better player
Sorry guys! The Tonex One sounds amazing But, The software sucks!! I newer regret that i turn to Boss GX 100 AND ITS VERY EASY TO WORK WITH, EVEN LIVE AND IT ALSO SOUND FANTASTIC!
Boss products are amazing, I am saving up to get either a Boss ME-90 or the Boss GX-100
Could it be? Could a $200 product sell more than a $1500 product? That’s…the least surprising development in retail history.
Next up: are Katanas outselling Mesas?
I had a tone x and really didn’t like it. It’s clunky and a pain in the ass to make your own captures. Quad cortex is the best at the moment.
True that QC is definitely pretty awesome in pretty much every way but also true that it's over a thousand dollars(!) more than the ToneX which competes surprisingly well and normally wouldn't even be in any comparison in the first place. Pretty impressive, imho.
tonex one no midi, no thanks
It's one button. Step on it. Or get the full fat Tonex, it has midi and works great
lol what, this is ridiculous
not sure why my previous comment got deleted...but you can indeed control it via usb-midi ...there's videos of it already on YT
@@moutinhoandroid I just did a quick search and didn't find anything. Do you have any links?
I found one guy (from Brazil - Saturn Pedal Works) that supposedly figured it out but I haven't been able to replicate on my own midi footswitch (MWave Chocolate). Guess we'll see how this plays out...
