Are you talking about like Wifi/Bluetooth or do you mean midi?I'll join the "no remotely controllable, no thanks" club. I see no use for it live. It's probably fantastic for home use but I'd rather use the bigger pedal.

I am not saying not buying because there will be something better. I am saying making it reliant on something with a short limited time span.
Same reason why I own a house, and I don't rent. I do not want to be reliant on something I have no control over.
There is not only the concern to be obsolete, but also the framework for microtransactions. This could easily be changed to require you to pay monthly subscription, or per profile loaded, or, etc.... I am leery of all cloud based gear for that reason.Yea, fair enough, I wavered a bit off your exact argument in responding to the other posts. But better matters because by the time this device actually ceases to work (however long that may be -- could be decades), no one will care about it, is my point. I don't expect to be in 20230, with modelers so extremely accurate and flooded with free options and new interfaces for interacting with profiles sampled across the full range of their parameters, and say, "man, I miss that 2024 ToneX sound". Nor at that time will I be miffed that I paid like $0.002 a day for that device that is worthless now.
But I'm not going to buy it anyway
Well, if that day ever comes I guess you can just sell it and move onto something else.There is not only the concern to be obsolete, but also the framework for microtransactions.

I wasn't responding to you. I was quoting the person who said "no remotely controllable, no thanks" which has nothing to do with what you said in response to my question.We are talking about the fact you cannot use the device without an editor.

I get that. It's kind of like that old Digitech pedal that came out where you bought the inital pedal but you had to pay for the extra amps and effects 'a la carte' so you only had to pay for the ones you wanted instead of buying 'bundles'. If you were to buy a used one today, I don't think there's any way to load anything onto it.There is not only the concern to be obsolete, but also the framework for microtransactions.

Sometimes I forget many people on here aren't old enough to remember when people owned things, and everything wasn't an in app purchase, subscription, or buy now pay later situation.I get that.

So I get what you're saying about the Tonex. It doesn't have any amp sims 'built in' per se (unlike a Line 6 Pod), so if/when support for it goes away, you're kinda stuck with whatever happens to be loaded up at the time.
Yep, I Had a Pod XT that I paid to upgrade with the amp packs. Then if people bought them used, it would delete them off there if they connected it to the computer because they were not the purchaser.It's funny, the Pod XTL was the first piece of gear I ever bought that you had to PAY to upgrade (the bass/metal/classic amp packs). It blew my mind that they wanted $100 to add a dozen or so amps to it that eventually were basically free if you bought the upgraded X3 unit a few years later.
I guess they were the pioneers of releasing something half baked and then charge people to 'make it better'.
The problem with that is the sounds would probably be out of phase and sound bad. Going through the ADA conversions would produce latency which would put them out of phase.Strongly considering buying one of these to run dual amps with my FM3
The small form factor means I wouldn't need to redo my setup.
That was my immediate thought as well. The filter blocks offer some phase flipping options, but I'm curious if that would be enough.The problem with that is the sounds would probably be out of phase and sound bad.

I have seen people talking about how they wonder if they could use 2 of these in parallel for 2 amps, and if the captures would be in phase with each other.
In the FM3 you could also probably use the delay or flanger blocks to introduce delay to try to time align them.That was my immediate thought as well. The filter blocks offer some phase flipping options, but I'm curious if that would be enough.
Worst case scenario it doesn't work in that regard, but I still have a nice, pocket-sized to go rig.
Enjoying mine as well. What profiles are you using?Ok, I've pulled a trigger on this one and wow, just wow, it's best piece of gear I've ever bought.
Btw. I pre-ordered it from Thomann 6th of May, back then Tonex One was on a 126th place in category guitar preamps, today it's on a 2nd place, so they sell fuck a lot of them.
Just got it and had only couple of hours to play up, but for higain PMUTE base on Engl was awesome, for cleans Warm Clean base on Recto.Enjoying mine as well. What profiles are you using?
Nobody, including IK has any idea. Consensus seems to be that if you're not rolling your own profiles your guess is as good as anyone's and "sounds good, is good".Is the input gain thing fixed on the One? I could never get the Pedal to sound right with all my guitars. Was constantly changing that setting otherwise the gain was always messed up.
