Tonex Capture changed the game for me. I'm a Tube Amp guy and I have a weird relationship with amp modelers. However, this technology has bridged the two concepts together for me and I share my experience with you. This is my first experience with an amp modeler and it's 2022! Tonex is the latest amp modeler software and hardware solution that brings guitar amp modeling to the masses. The guitar amp modeling software pairs with the Tonex Capture box or any reamping device you have to let you capture your amp and recall your favourite guitar tones any time you want. In this tonex capture review I share the process and my thoughts on this latest guitar amp technology. I compare the amp modeler vs real amp and share some tips to help you create some awesome tonex captures for yourself!

A box that can do this for under £200 represents pretty good value for money IK Media should sell quite a few of these..

Yeah I’ve got a pretty fast gaming computer and did the low res version. Took like 2 minutes. I just got it all and decided to just get the ball rolling by quickly cloning the channels on my Mesa TC50. Already impressed with that. So I can only imagine how advanced sounds! That’s my next step is to really take care in how I mic my amp next time and set up better isolation to cut back on reflections and really get a crisp capture. Considering what I got just tossing a couple mics in front of my amp though I’m pretty happy with it. I am kinda wondering what it’ll do if I ran a blend of amps though. IE two mics two amps.

Thanks! The captures are saved within Tonex as far as I understand. They only work on the Tonex environment. You can transfer them to the Tonex pedal, use them in Tonex or Amplitube. But outside that there is no use for them other than sharing them to Tone.net.

Hi, i'm new to the world of capture, I want to know, when doing a capture do i have to put everything( eq, gain, vol, presence, etc) at noon and setup them on the virtual capture amp after to compare?? Thanks
@LonelyRocker Жыл бұрын
Hey there! When doing your captures you can actually do whatever you want. Ideally, if you want to capture snapshots of how your amp actually sounds, set all the dials the way you need to to get your tone. EQ, presence, everything. The dials on the Tone Model don't emulate your amp. They just give you extra adjustment. So feel free to make your adjustments and capture the best tones possible. Hope this helps!!

I'm telling you, the Focusrite routing software is very confusing. I've had such trouble with it and others have said the same thing. As long as you are certain the Tonex Capture box is connected properly just cycle through the output presets in Focusrite Control. One of them should work. That's what I did. I think I used one of the "Channel Analogue" presets. Hope that helps!

There is a diagram in the TONEX Capture Box Manual. Sometimes it's the routing with the interface that's an issue. I had problems with the Focusrite routing software. It can get confusing if its not working. Hard to diagnose from here but look at both the cabling and how the audio routing is set up in your interface. Good luck!

I have an orange ad30 and a 50w tube combo and I need a solution to attenuate the volume, to be able to overdrive them at home, could this be a good solution? Is -24db of attenuation enough? Or is it still always bound to the PC? I would like to understand if it can be compared to the UAD Ox Box or the Capture is just an extension of the Tonex plugin?
@LonelyRocker Жыл бұрын
No, I wouldn't buy this for attenuation. That's not really what it does. You can buy a simple attenuator or check out the videos I've done on the Two Notes Captor X. That would be the ultimate solution: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a9WZlM5nzdrdnY0.html

Hi Dan. im trying to capture a head only, just as you did. I have a Scarlett 4i4 gen3. I can't get it to work with tonex capture due to the focusrite control software. Im in the pulling my hair out stage. Can you explain your routing or share a screenshot?
@LonelyRocker 11 ай бұрын
Oh man. That control software. It’s horrible! I stopped using the Focusrite for capturing because it was way too problematic. What I used to do was cycle through the presets until one worked. I think there was one called “direct” or something? It’s not hooked up right now so I can’t even check but that’s basically how I did it. If I get it hooked up again I’ll try and do a refresh to see if I can figure it out.

Hello, could you help me with a question? I have captured my amp and I want to save the file on my pc or on a flash drive, but it has been saved in Tonex as a tone model, not as a preset and I cannot export it. Could you tell me how I can export my own capture to my hard drive? I would also like to know if there is a difference in capturing in Advanced mode or in Default mode
@LonelyRocker 11 ай бұрын
Hi There. The presets only work within TONEX. I believe all of the presets exist within some kind of master file but are not available outside of the app. You can't use them anywhere else so a standalone file would be useless to you. You can move presets between the app and the pedal and share them on Tone.net. The differences between Advanced and Default are in the fine details. In some cases you may not be able to notice the differences but Advanced just renders a more detailed model. It takes longer to make but is the highest quality capture TONEX can do. Hope that helps!

@LonelyRocker Жыл бұрын
When you feed a signal back to the amp it has to be passive and mimic the level of a guitar signal. So reamp boxes make it brainless. If your method works and you can control the level properly back to your amp, your good!
@trevortwigg1384 Жыл бұрын
@@LonelyRocker what you described a DI box does in reverse. So that’s why I turned it around. It converts instrument level to Line level. So logic dictates if you use it in reverse it does what you just said. I did buy a reamp box since I posted this comment but, haven’t tried it yet. I did some reading and decided the reamp box was probably more optimal.

It works, I managed to capture my kemper! I have captured a few kemper profiles - they all sound the same as the kemper, just need a bit of EQ tweaking which is nothing unusual. I’ve noticed all the captures are a bit more gainy than their counterparts, but this seems to be something others people have mentioned when capturing so I guess I just really need to look at input trims and perhaps lower them a little. I love some of the Tonex captures, I just have some absolute favourites on my kemper that I’ve used for so long and have just become part of me haha! Thanks man ✌️
@roseparade. Жыл бұрын
So when I’m capturing a clean style kemper amp with my Tonex, the input is quite distorted? The return input trim is very low yet it still sounds gainy even tho it’s a clean amp sound? I have the input trims super low but it’s still happening. Did you experience this when listening back? Ty ✌️

You can use any passive DI. Just run the signal backwards (you'll need a TRS to female XLR adapter cable). Use the monitor out of your sound card as the send so you can use the volume knob to trim the level. That's what I do. Works great. Cost maybe $30 total. If you're getting a lot of humming and buzzing, use one of those three to two prong plug adapters to lift the ground.

Man, these Apple silicon Macs are terrible at this. My old 2nd gen i7 PC with an NVidia GTX 970 processes a fast capture in under 3 minutes, default was around 9, advanced was just under 20 minutes. When the process is running it's working the GPU hard. Apple really should step up their GPU game because this kind of parallel processing seems to be becoming more common.

Yeah. There is something going on with how TONEX is utilizing the gpu on new Macs. Advanced takes hours! Hoping that gets addressed soon.
