But what's a TONE MODEL?

A TONE MODEL is the capture of a real guitar or bass rig with all its nuances and non-linearities. It aims to
provide the same sound characteristics inside a computer so you no longer need the real rig itself for performing
and recording. You can collect thousands of amplifiers, stomps and cabs inside TONEX, which will become a
digital locker for all your gear.
A TONE MODEL can have various types:
• STOMP(s)
• STOMP(s) + AMP
• STOMP(s) + AMP + CAB
• AMP
• AMP + CAB
A STOMP(s) is any combination of guitar pedals: boost, overdrive, fuzz, distortion, EQ, preamplifier, etc...
N.B.
The STOMP can't be a time-based or phase-based pedal such as: compressor, reverb, delay, chorus, phaser,
flanger, etc...
Also some vintage fuzzes and overdrives that have parallel paths inside can't be modeled.

What if I have no amplifier to capture?

Don't worry, even if you don't have any amplifier to capture, you can play all the TONE MODELs available
in TONEX Pedal and TONEX for Mac/PC plus any TONE MODEL made by other users available on our free
platform ToneNET (tone.net).
