A complete stage rig in one pedal

TONEX’s groundbreaking technology lets you model everything from a single pedal to a full-pedal, amp-and-cab rig. TONEX Pedal goes even further, giving you the tools you need to shape your sound live on stage.

• AMP / RIG: load up to 150 Tone Model presets to use any time. You can load any combination of pedal, amp and whole-rig models.
• VIR CABINET: use IK’s award-winning multiple impulse response VIR™ cabinet and mic simulation to dial in the perfect cab tone for any situation.

• IR LOADER: load any custom IR you like to explore combinations of Tone Models and your own impulse responses.
• EFFECTS: TONEX Pedal includes a noise gate, parametric EQ, compressor, and 5 stereo reverbs derived from AmpliTube X-SPACE pedal.

It’s all the tone-shaping options you need in a single pedal. And you can save up to 150 presets, organized within 50 banks of 3 preset slots each, giving you endless tones from a single portable rig.

Tour-ready design and features

Designed and crafted in Italy, TONEX Pedal features a compact chassis made from anodized aluminum that can withstand years of tour abuse.

With full MIDI in/out, you can connect high-end FX pedals like our X-GEAR line for a complete programable pedalboard or easily add TONEX Pedal to your touring rack, and use its expression pedal input to add real-time control over any parameter.

A limitless collection of tones

TONEX is more than just a pedal, it’s an ecosystem of tone, with a full range of hardware, software and apps to transport your tones everywhere, seamlessly, from your DAW and plug-ins for studio production, to your mobile device for impromptu practicing.

Best of all, TONEX Pedal includes 1000 Premium Tone Models plus unlimited access to free user Tone Models on ToneNET to load to the pedal for a limitless supply of sonic inspiration.

Full studio integration

TONEX Pedal tone experience goes beyond the stage. Use the included TONEX MAX software not only to model your rig, but also as a standalone or a plug-in integrated with your DAW or directly with AmpliTube 5 to enjoy the exact same tone you use live in your studio productions. And for maximum convenience, TONEX Pedal also includes a full version of AmpliTube 5 to integrate your Tone Models within the most powerful amp and effects software on the planet.
