Hi thanks! QC and Tonex are different tech and cannot share files

Good point. I'm thinking about experimenting with the tonex pedal as an amp for my helix and use irs for the cab. That way I can use multiple cabs for cool stereo effects and parallel processing.

honest straight forward review

The ToneX works perfectly in my rig. I have no desire to give up my Strymon, Wampler, Keeley, Source Audio, etc pedals anyway. I just want the multitude of amps that the ToneX provides without spending $1500+. I like being able to adjust my pedals on the fly and my current setup works perfectly for that.

so what if i dont own pedals? i need to invest alot more money for a quality pedasl,so in the end its not cheaper than the kemper and less convenient to take it to a gig with pedal board.not to mention the need of a computer to edit stuff. cheaper devise but more expensive for use.

Very good points. Also struggle with Apple and the ToneX Plug ins. Liked your comments :)

The Tonex Pedal does have the feature to capture individual pedals as well, so you can actually build a complete pedalboard patch with the pedals you currently use.

In theory, if you find your perfect signature/core tone with several effects involved, you can then name that tone as an amp and capture that tone. I hope to experiment with the Tonex on this front. Building a core Amp tone, then augmenting it with other effects could prove fruitful...and reduce stacking 15 pedals, down to 3 or 4 as your base tone pedals can be physically eliminated from your pedalboard rig.

It compares, just depends on the user and their needs.

Have you tried connecting Tonex with QC? For example, using only the amplifier from Tonex and effects + cab IR from QC? Best regards.

Talking about amp sounds…TONEX is the winner, downloading stuff from the community (you have to do a lot of research to get good quality tones…is coming something good about this). If you want also effects in the routing QC is the best

you are so right,as a kemper owner for 6 years now, i can say its a complete machine and you dont have to add anything to it,the effect are great and versatile, its my only gear that i dont have the urge to upgrade or replace by anything else. Now we also have the liquid profile option, that like to buy a new device for free!

Yes .... I have the QC and it can do pretty much everything. You could do an entire show with the QC and not need another pedal. With the Tonex you will need Chorus, Phaser, etc that you might want to use. You would need to add other pedals or a Helix Stomp or other to be able to do all the sounds you might want UNLESS of course you are simplistic and only want the amp/cab sound and some reverb. I love my QC but like you also love the ToneX as well. The thing that stinks right now for me is that the QC doesn't have a desktop editor. Great video!

I've seen other reviewers who have Macs who are using Tonex software, and the specs on IKMultimedia's page say it works on a machine (Mac or Windows) that does not have a GPU - according to them it just uses the GPU if you have it to accelerate the training/capture.

@@MadSteex I agree performance in advanced capture is pretty bad, but in the video you say it's "useless" which doesn't really seem to be the case. Advanced mode seems more like one that will do a lot of extra computations in order to squeeze a tiny bit of extra quality out. If you want to do a lot of captures, you definitely are going to want some GPU power, or dedicated hardware (which is why a QC is so expensive!). I have both a Windows PC with a decent nVidia GPU and a Macbook Pro with M1 Pro and I can say while the M1 chips are great overall performance wise, as far as GPU performance goes they really aren't anything special - despite how Apple tries to portray it.

@MadSteex - stating that Mac with M1 is useless is a bit manipulation, don’t you think? If it will be better on Mac you could say that you need Mac to do the job as popular windows is useless, or you need a gaming machine to do the job.. All these are not true.. Another manipulation is the price - I think around 1800 euro for QC vs 400 euro for Tonex is huge difference for making profile. So for price with comparable(or better) tone quality for modeling hardware Tonex is a killer.

Жыл бұрын

Allora, se lo scopo è catturare con Tonex ti stra consiglio tonex Capture, per un semplice motivo: mettendo da parte il fatto della qualità del reamp (che non sono afferrato) il Tonex Capture ti permette di entrare anche solo con ampli e solo con cab (ovvero ha le entrate dedicate amp e cab separate), occhio che devi sempre essere attaccato con un cabinet perchè non è una loadbox, ma se usi fryette ps100 stai tranquillo. Avendo le entrate separate, come vedi sul plugin Tonex puoi caricare solo l'ampli o solo il cabinet dopo che hai catturato l'intero rig (in questo modo puoi anche mixare ampli di un capture con con casse di un altro capture) e non credo che sia come il Kemper che ovviamente sentendo solo l'arrivo dell'intero rig, puoi escludere il cabinet ma credo che sia solo una interpolazione digitale che fa il kemper. Non so se mi sono spiegato. Se vuoi scrivimi su instagram che chattiamo a voce. So, if the goal is to capture with Tonex I highly recommend Tonex Capture, for one simple reason: putting aside the fact of the quality of the reamp (which I'm not sure about, I'm not expert of that) Tonex Capture allows you to enter even with only an amp and only with cab (that is, it has separate amp and cab dedicated inputs), be careful that you always have to be attached with a cabinet because it is not a loadbox, but if you use fryette ps100 don't worry. By having separate inputs, as you see on the Tonex plugin you can load just the amp or just the cabinet after you've captured the whole rig (this way you can also mix amps from one capture with cabinets from another capture) and I don't think so that it's like the Kemper that obviously hearing only the arrival of the entire rig, you can exclude the cabinet but I think it's just a digital interpolation that the kemper does. I don't know if I explained myself. If you want write me on instagram we chat by voice.

This video does'nt really make sense especially in a real world context. The Tonex should be compared to them for its sounds which are the best, better than the comparable Kemper Player too which is an obvious competitor btw. For a guy gigging like me it still is a good comparison because if you want to get a pedalboard only for example you have the choice between the QC, the Kemper Stage or for cheaper you get the Tonex, an expression pedal and either a HX Stomp or HX Effects which will give you the best Amp and cab sounds on the market, the best effects on the market (Helix reigns supreme on the effects no contest) with a smaller form factor to the Kemper Stage and comparable to the QC but with a sturdier rig and again, cheaper. Nobody cares that the Tonex by itself doesn't really do effects if the sounds are the best and you can get the Stomp or FX for cheaper than the rest, who says you have to stay with just one machine? With its price and form factor and the fact that it has the best sounds the Tonex is a game changer period and if I decide to get rid of my amp I'm going for that for sure.

Most of the people who are going to buy tonex would buy it becausecits cheap and that means the amps that they want to play through tonex they dont own them so as a result people who are going to buy tonex are going to download the amp modelled by someone else. So all those points about buying a capture device and buying a PC with Nvidia, to me sound irrelevant.

@@MadSteex Sorry I was talking about most of the people who would want to buy Tonex.

Thank you for some rational sense. The difference between the modelling/capturing is close to insignificant in the grand scheme of things. Choose the platform you prefer based on your needs and your budget. Simple as that. And enjoy making music and stop wasting time debating/arguing/yada yada what is the best. We’re all spoilt for choice, that’s the plain truth. I love my Quad Cortex though. It’s my end game piece of gear. For the time being at least 😅

It's literally the worst capture out of all 3......

I have wasted eleven minutes of my life. 😞

@maxsteex, hey man, fellow KZreadr here. Don’t worry about the jerks that leave you negative comments. Trust me, with nearly 70k subscribers myself, I get jerks and idiots all the time and I simply block them from my channel. Those people NEVER have their own channel where they share content. They just troll around pissing on others who are only trying to help. Keep doing what you do and don’t worry about those people.

@@HomeRecordingMadeEasy Usually I really don't hate on other peoples videos but in this case, I just had to. I feel like being manipulated. It's just a case of fake news, what he said, that the M1 would be useless in the advance mode with the ToneX. Somebody else mentioned it in the comment section before and just look, how aggressive his answers were. It's just pure bullshit. So it is my good right to feel sad about my wasted time.
