IK Multimedia Tone X One?

All you really need to do is adjust them to your taste tbh. Not saying all captures are good, but the gain knob is there to be used. I also capture a lot of my own gear, and both solutions work pretty flawlessly for that
Yeah using your own caps is the best case scenario for capture devices, IME. But that negates a lot of the purported benefits.

I’m not willing to d*ck around with levels on all the random caps out there; at that point it’s much more productive to switch paradigms to a component based modeler and pick the amp you want and dial it to taste.
 
You can probably power it from the faslink port if you don't have an FC connected, that puts out 12V 1A. Been doing that for a year and a half on my fm9 with a TC Helicon pedal.
I don't remember the pinout for the connection but there was a discussion on the fractal forum about it.

Very interesting - I might give it a shot for fun sometime!
 
I'm about to throw this thing through the wall.
First it was this:

Now I can't edit presets or audition them? How do I remove Cab IRs so I can just hear the amp model? How does anything work? It's really sloppy and unintuitive. I am pretty tech saavy and have zero clue how to get what I want from this thing.

Preset browser is terrible. I can only click on what's in the red circle, not what's in the blue circle. How do I load presets? How do I edit them? What is this nonsense? IK, you really made a poor product here. I just want to load a profile off tonenet and run it without an IR into a power amp. I apparently am unable to do this, and it was the reason I bought it.

Can you remove a cab if it is embedded within a capture that I don’t know ?
A bunch of sellers offer both direct amp and amp w cab

No idea, you’re 6 steps ahead of how far I’ve gotten with this thing so far. I’m giving it 24 hours, if it doesn’t do what I want in that time, it’s going back.

You're in the librarian. This is where you move stuff between pedal and software. And vice versa

Go to the home tab where orests and tone midels are to edit things.

Safe then move it back to pedal.

It's not initiative but RTFM would save you grey hairs.

Yes but it's the software guessing DI captures have a better result using your own Ii R. But the cab removal is mosdef useable.

TFM is only about the buttons on the pedal and I did RTFM lol

For me right now the sporadic connection difficulties between the app and "tonenet" are enough to make me punt on the whole ecosystem.

Tone net isn't usually a problem. Or it wasn't when I was using Tonex. It is prolly a server issue on their end. Don't let that throw you off Tonex. After about a week it will become 2nd nature. It isn't intuitive at first. Had I not had a lifetime fatal error with it, I would still use it, because it did sound great.
 
Lawd forgive me for sharing ToneJunkie content, but this is an interesting shootout/discussion of Helix vs. Tonex, in the context of Tonex ONE as a companion for HX products.

 
So...

I had a Very Bad Time (TM) with the Tonex plugin when it originally came out: https://thegearforum.com/threads/tonex-pedal-its-real.1411/page-72#post-71210

But the idiot that I am got hyped up about Tonex One by the YouTube hype machine. In the process, I fired up the software again and realized that I still had a few nice self-made tone models (of an amp that I have already sold) lying around and I preordered the pedal.

It arrived yesterday and then the following drama in three acts unfolded:

Act 1: I start Tonex and it tells me that I need to register the pedal first before I can use the librarian (dick move IK but okay).
Act 2: I start the product manager thing and register the pedal and also see that there is an update for Tonex available which I install as well. You see where this going?
Act 3: I start Tonex again and all my tone models (including the factory ones) are gone :ROFLMAO: And of course I do not have a backup.

FFS IK MULTIMEDIA! This thing is so going back to Thomann.
