Introducing TONEX FX
Free for all TONEX users, the TONEX FX update elevates IK Multimedia’s all-encompassing modeling ecosystem with the addition of eight effects. No longer will you need to rely on your physical pedals to deck out your TONEX with time-based and modulation effects, as this update grants you two distinct delays, chorus, flanger, tremolo, phaser, and rotary effects — all of which are configurable via tap tempo. Next, the TONEX pedal’s reverb count grows to five, giving you a studio-grade selection of echoes to impart space and dimension to your sound. These powerful effects can be configured either pre- or post-amp and cab, with a grand total of seven FX blocks available for complete tonal customization.
150 world-class Tone Models
The TONEX Pedal Bass Edition harnesses the power of IK Multimedia’s cutting-edge AI Machine Modeling technology to deliver you up to 150 studio-grade Tone Model presets at any one time. This pedal is essentially the world’s most well-stocked studio guitar locker in an easily portable pedal format, packed to the brim with exact tonal replicas of the world’s most sought-after amplifiers, pedals, cabinets, and even full-size rigs. You can also access a wealth of premium tone models via TONEX Signature Bass Collection, AmpliTube 5, AmpliTube SVX, and AmpliTube SVX 2, as well as unlimited free user models for a truly endless assortment of tones.
The centerpiece of your TONEX ecosystem
While the TONEX Capture and TONEX software are excellent choices for musicians at home or in the studio, the TONEX Pedal Bass Edition is a performing musician’s dream! An exceptionally straightforward control scheme with three footswitches to swap between your presets, an assortment of knobs, and an easy-to-read screen allow you to take your TONEX models out of the studio and straight onto the stage — no computer necessary. Moreover, when testing the TONEX Pedal out at Sweetwater, we were incredibly impressed by its straightforward operation. The TONEX Pedal may be host to some of the most advanced modeling technology in the guitar world, but operating it still feels like tweaking a pedal or dialing in a traditional amplifier.
Ultra-realistic VIR cabinet simulations
The TONEX Pedal Bass Edition comes equipped with a host of IK Multimedia VIR (Volumetric Impulse Response) cabinet simulations to offer the most true-to-life Tone Models possible. These top-class simulations utilize hundreds of IRs per cabinet to capture every nuance and detail of playing through a traditional speaker cabinet in the flesh. What’s more, the TONEX Pedal is also fully compatible with custom IRs. You can even create a cab sim of your favorite speaker cabinet using TONEX Capture or TONEX Software.
Effortless home recording
For all the TONEX Pedal Bass Edition’s performance-minded features, make no mistake: this pedal is primed for the studio. In fact, the TONEX Pedal Bass Edition doubles in function as a full-fledged USB audio interface, allowing you to lay down studio-quality guitar tracks in your DAW of choice with just your instrument and the TONEX Pedal. Lastly, a rear-panel headphone jack allows for simple direct monitoring of your tone, making the TONEX Pedal Bass Edition an endlessly convenient noise-free practice partner.
