How it's done
* All amp profiles are captured in their purest forms using the D.I. and matching power load (for now), with no speaker cabinet included. There are two reasons for that. One is that majority of free ToneX captures found on Tone Net are taken with speaker cabs and sound just awful, second we don't want to repeat the same mistake and want to give our customers freedom of choice. This way you have free hand in changing cabinet's impulse responses (IR) according to your taste, and believe it or not, the speaker cabinet plays a major role in the resulting tone shaping. But don't worry, ToneX software still offers tons of FREE CABINET PROFILES YOU CAN USE WITH OUR PRESETS!* Multiple amp profiles captured at different settings are always taken in order to get as close to the real amp characteristics as possible. E.g. gain, tone stack, and even master volume positions play a major role in the tone. ToneX model's virtual knobs are there then only for fine tuning of the result.
* We're always chasing the sweet spot, nice tube break ups, not much for an (ugly) tube saturation....
* ADA MP-1 profiles were taken from the preamp's regular outputs and the unit is presented as a pedal type in ToneX SW.
* All captures are of real gear in the best possible shape, recently serviced, recapped, etc.
* Last but not least, rack power conditioner is always used for both captured and ToneX Capture devices, as well as the computer.
* BTW, the photo collages at this website are those of actual amps / pedals / preamps used as a base for ToneX captures. Yes, they're real!
