IK Multimedia TONEX Plug

[Sascha Franck]

I thought there was a slight quality reduction though when loaded onto the pedals. ATM unsure if true.

Could possibly investigate into that (comparing the same files played through either version and using the TXO as an interface), but as it absolutely doesn't bother me, I possibly couldn't care less.

 

[Shask]

I believe untrue. There were issues with matching levels, and there could be IO hardware differences, but I don’t believe there is any difference in the processing.

Yeah, I think it is exactly the same, and any differences come from the quality of the audio interface used on the computer. I use an IK interface, and it sounds exactly the same.

I don't think I'm interested in it, but was talking to a buddy of mine who doesn't have much gear anymore and was looking for a way to get really good amp tones in headphones. This seems like an ideal fit...great amp tones with options to dial in a little bit of reverb or some basic chorus/delay. Will be curious how the iOS side works.

They are the same Tone Models, nothing is reprocessed or compromised when using them on the hardware units (including on TONEX Plug).

Speaking of Tone Models, any chance the existing collections will get converted to V2? Assuming you have the source material and it doesn't require recapturing everything.

I don't have any news about that at this time, sorry.

Is the capture process using the same training tones and did the old one save the files such that you could retrain?

IK made some changes to the training tones from v1 to v2.

Ordered. Recently switched to an iPhone 17 and needed an ultra-portable USB-C solution to replace my half-broken Sonic Port. Looking forward to finally dipping my toes in the Tonex pool as a long-time Helix guy.

Well, since IK doesn’t seem to want to upgrade the actual iOS TONEX app, I’d say you made the right choice.

TONEX Plug is officially shipping today, apps are both up since yesterday, for those interested. Thanks!
