Plugged the tonex into a laney lfr 2x12, really nice quality sounds. I was on the fence around keeping it, but now, it's going on the pedal board for a newish build.
It keeps cutting out, goes silent, and 'USB connection error', requiring the pedal to be disconnected and switched off before reconnecting.
See if they made the UI fun, they'd sell an absolute ton of these things.
The Fishman capture sounds the nicest and most natural out of all the ones I tried on there and nicer than the HX Effects method also. I'm going to use it on Saturday where I have a singing + guitar gig so hopefully it works in that scenario but I don't see why it wouldn't. The Fishman Platinum Pro itself seems to cost almost as much as the Tonex was so I suppose although the capture won't be as flexible as the real thing, it's already sounding good so I'm going to take that as a win.
I'm, not having any real problems with the software by the way - Just seems to be drag-and-drop onto the pedal then you can edit easy enough on the pedal for the most part? Admittedly I've not had to edit the effects very much so far and that seems fiddly on the pedal, and seems like you have to go back to the main page on the software to edit anything, but that doesn't seem too bad.
I'm willing to admit that I'm weird though as I really don't like the Helix Native interface (although even that is a million times better than the HX Effects pedal interface), I get really annoyed with the Helix interface, really fiddly and for somebody who apparently uses the scroll wheel on the mouse a lot it's not great as you end up changing loads of attributes without even realising and there's no Undo...
Agree that the software seems simple to use if you just drag & drop new models into the pedal.
Very useful piece of kit, hopefully people pick up on some of the less obvious uses of the capturing and more things like that start to appear. Notwithstanding the potential moral grey area of capturing stuff like that i suppose
I've watched a few vids, and the general consensus seems to be 'yes', but I'm interested in real-World opinions, and not someone on YT.
Would likely pair it with a TC Plethora X5 via Midi.
Admittedly this might be exacerbated by my (admittedly crappy) audio interface so I'm wondering whether this isn't as much of an issue with the pedals.
NAM is better with cab sims,ownhammer etc, however its just my personal opinion for my vintage modern ears.
When I'm using Tonex SE, I put the input level of the software at 6. If I want a little more gain, I can then choose to use more level 'virtually' or use a little bit of gain from my audio interface.
Can only see screen protectors so far, but hopefully will find something for the pedal itself, was hoping there was a sort of clip on see through plastic type thing
