IK Multimedia TONEX Pedal Guitar Amplifier and Distortion Pedal

The IK Multimedia TONEX Pedal is a sophisticated guitar and bass amplifier modelling and distortion stompbox. It utilises proprietary AI Machine Modelling (AIMM) technology to capture and recreate the exact sonic characteristics of real-world guitar rigs. This includes amplifiers, speaker cabinets, and a wide range of distortion, overdrive, and effects pedals. The pedal allows musicians to play with hundreds of professionally captured 'Tone Models' or create and load their own, offering virtually limitless tonal possibilities in a compact, stage-ready unit. Key features include a powerful DSP engine with ultra-low noise 24-bit/192kHz converters, providing a wide frequency response and high dynamic range. The pedal offers extensive preset management with up to 100 banks of three slots each, for a total of 300 fully customisable sounds. Its interface includes five quick-access knobs and a high-visibility display. The unit is equipped with comprehensive connectivity: dual 1/4" outputs for flexible routing to amps and PAs, a headphone output for silent practice, a built-in tuner, full MIDI implementation, and an expression pedal input for real-time parameter control. It also functions as a USB audio interface for direct recording. The TONEX Pedal is an ideal solution for guitarists and bassists seeking professional-grade amp tones without the bulk and volume of traditional equipment. It suits home studio musicians for silent recording, gigging players needing consistent, portable sounds, and tone enthusiasts who enjoy exploring and capturing different rigs. The included TONEX MAX and AmpliTube 5 software, alongside access to the ToneNET online community for sharing models, makes it a central hub for modern guitar tone creation and performance.
