I wouldn’t recomend buying a tonex pedal used because without tonex max the pedal is kinda useless when you want to make captures the problem is that the tonex max license is gone once it’s activated and you can’t transfer it to another user the serial number only activates the pedal but the license for the Programms only come with the first activation I bought mine used and had to figure this out with the IK support

Are you sure about that? I thought the license could be transferred to another owner.. there was a couple of posts on Reddit about IK charging $25 for the transfer, which is crazy but still doable/cheaper vs buying new

thanks! been v curious about grabbing a tonex one. you mentioned that it sort of stands alone in this category, which is almost true because im curious about the boss ir-2 as well. i know there's a lot to access a mess of amps and such with tonex but i only need one sweet, clean, chimey, responsive amp. whoever does it better gets my.... well, no money because ill buy it used!

I've heard mixed thoughts on the IR-2 but have not tried it myself! Biggest difference being that the IR-2 is just for IRs whereas the Tonex is using captures of the entire amp + cabinet and from my comparison of using the helix with IRs vs. using the helix with Tonex for my amps, I feel like the response/feel is much better and more dynamic

Nice summary of the important points, thanks! I just entered the Tonex ecosystem with the Tonex One, and just tried using it as a programable drive pedal. I'm getting more background noise than expected when using the "Gold Centaur" preset. Are there power supply requirements to avoid excess noise?
@ZachBrobstMusic

To my knowledge, no there isn't additional power supply requirements that would help avoid excess noise. I've also used that Gold Centaur capture and didn't notice a ton of noise though

Hi Zach, such a great to the point video that really cleared my mind up! I'm convinced i will have a better experience with the ToneX Pedal model, do you think IK Multimedia will bring out a new version (with maybe USB-C usage) of this pedal? Since they are shooting sky high in popularity now i think an updated version of the bigger pedal isn't that far away? What do you think? Thanks again for your content!

The ToneX Pedal (the original) needs an upgrade. Minimal, but useful dot matrix color screen (for itemizing) screen to keep the asthetic - Wifi, and BT for OTA upgrades, BT for iOS/Android, Mac/PC connectivity. Get a delay in there, too.

TONEX ONE is nice! Guitar processors can make a big difference in sound depending on the CAB IR you use. actually there are many IR products on the market, but I think DYNAX IR has the best sound. As stated in their product description, DYNAX IR is really fast. When using IRs, the pick attack is sometimes delayed, and it is difficult to add picking nuances, but their IR prevents all of that. It's revolutionary!

I’m considering the ToneX ONE to be my drive pedal Swiss Army knife in the studio . It’s limited to only storing 20 ? While recording to my DAW, can I have the USB-C connected so I can swap between 100 captures for example using the software ? And by 100 captures meaning I will capture my analog pedals using tonex capture to build the library .

I bought a Tonex pedal to use as a stand alone or in a Headrush pedal board inside the an F/X loop after the drive ,compressor and expression effects and then before modulation effects , I just pre ordered the Tonex one to put right before the delay on a regular stacked analog pedal board and see how that goes .maybe i'll have to put it somewhere else in the chain. If i use an amp I'll bypass the IRs or use it at as a reverb stomp rite near the delay pedal where it already is in the chain, all the other analog pedals will be before it. not to sophisto but hopefully effective . I can probably try controlling it via midi with the Headrush or a Digitech rack and pedal thing iI have from the past if I want to try it like you use it. to many toys Lol . this stuff will come in real handy , those nice and awesome tube amps are getting heavier in weight every year LOL

NEITHER. why? you still have to deal with IK and their hit and miss software. great tones, but a large number of buyers still can't connect to IK in the software. that's why there's around 100 used tonex pedals for sale on each of the equipment sites every day. frustration with the software and generally poor support from IK.
