Title: Great sounds
Review: I wonât get into all the bells and whistles with this pedal. I will say that this pedal makes absolutely phenomenal sounds, which is the most important aspect. The software is bloated, time consuming booger bear to figure out, so that may deter many, but I got it to work as expected. Did I say how good this pedal sounds?? 🙂

Title: Almost there, but needs a few firmware fixes
Review: Wow, I could on for quite a while about how much I love Tonex and the impressive technological feat of stuffing that capture technology into a tiny, TINY pedal. For the positives, this little guy has all the sound quality of the Tonex Pedal (about $400) and desktop Tonex MAX software. It plays all the same amp, cab, and effect captures as the other Tonex products, and it sounds great.There's a couple nagging issues that I want to highlight that prevent this from being a 5-star review. First, while I actually think the UI is very clever for giving you this much control with so much real estate, I think there should have been more varied options for how you use captures and change them with the footswitch.At the time of release, you could load up to 20 captures on the device (which is a fair amount), but only given two (foot-switchable) options to change between them. You can play in "Dual Mode" where the footswitch goes back and forth between two captures, or "Stomp" mode, which turns a single capture on and off. These make sense as options, but in Dual Mode, there is no option to bypass (turn off) the pedal. I would much rather be able to switch between OFF - CAPTURE 1 - CAPTURE 2, especially if you are using it as an amp simulation. Also, there is an audition mode that lets you cycle through all 20 captures, but it is clunky, based on LED's (many of which look similar) and can only be controlled by hand. This limits the utility of Tonex ONE.Second, there's seems to be some type of glitch related to the infuriating "auto-save" feature. If you make any change to a capture with the pedal's knobs (perhaps the EQ or adding reverb, etc.), this is automatically saved and you cannot revert back to original unless you re-load the capture on a computer. I do not want this feature. Even worse, some of these changes seem to corrupt the capture altogether. I've played with reverb settings that seem to brick the capture into a 100% wet sound with barely-audible volume, and this cannot be fixed until you re-load the capture.Really, at this time it's a 5* product with 3* reliability and functionality, which is how we arrive at a 4* score. I am hopeful that this issues can be fixed with firmware updates, and then the Tonex ONE could be incredibly useful for portable practice or as a swiss-army knife on a pedalboard.

Title: Great Tones
Review: I gave this pedal a good run through, and used it in a few jams and recording sessions.It's sort of a pain to have to set this up with a laptop and USB connection BUT once you get the ones you like, this thing is great and compact.The usb interface as a DI has enough lag to piss off anyone, might be cool for recording but definitely not for live.The hype is 100% justified considering the amount of tones offered in the app.This pedal has enough tonal options to justify the price and is a great IR for plugging straight in to PA's which is what I am using it for to bypass the guitar amp entirely.My only issue I had with it was getting the right overall output volume, but I got it after tinkering.

Title: Defective? Or bad product...
Review: Not sure which was the problem, but this did not work out of the box. I tried loading the app, upgrading the firmware (nightmare) and re-downloading different versions of the software and IK finally said return it to whoever I purchased it from. The question in my mind, was this a defective product that was resold as new by Amazon, or was it just a defective product from IK. Disturbing, nonetheless. I've returned a number of these multi FX units to Amazon that did not function properly out of the box. Makes me wonder when I see reviews on You Tube of this stuff that... you know, works?

Title: Full features in a tiny package!
Review: I already have Tonex Max and the Tonex pedal. I saw this on sale and thought it would be great to have as a portable practice device using my headphones, and it hasn't disappointed. Make no mistake, despite the size and knobs limitations, this has the power to do it all. What I found surprising refreshing is that because you can only load 2 presets at a time, you kind of just accept that fact and just worry about playing instead of messing around with lots of presets. I have 2 of my favorite tone models loaded up. I can power this via the USB hub I use to power my phone. This is super convenient and super portable! Once the update with the additional effect blocks come out, this is going to be that much better!

Title: Serial was already used, this was a factory sealed item.
Review: Purchased brand new and was met with the "serial number registered by another user" message. I am familiar with using IK product manager as I have made several larger purchases from them recently and only ever had one user account with them. When contacting support the automated answering service said that their phone support was not available and when contacting them via their site it told me they would respond in a few days. So I'm just stuck and scared to return to amazon due to the price of the device, crazy to think of, pretty paperweight though.

Review: Pedale fantastico. Puoi mettere dentro la cattura della tua strumentazione e suonare live oppure esercitarti in cuffia senza avere bisogno di altro. Oppure caricare la cattura i pedali o ampli altrimenti introvabili o proibitivi da acquistare. Costa molto meno delle altre soluzioni dello stesso tipo e se le funzionalità non bastano c'è il fratello maggiore ad un costo ragionevole...

Review: Ich war auf der Suche nach einem bezahlbaren und gut klingenden Profile Player.Der Tonex One in Kombination mit der Tonex App von IK Multimedia ist ein wahres Power Bündel. Hier steht eine riesige Auswahl aus tollen Amp Profiles zum Download zur Verfügung.Das Teil klingt nicht nur extrem gut und authentisch, sondern kann auch als Audio Interface verwendet werden.Der Preis ist im Vergleich zur Leistung mehr als gerechtfertigt - klare Kaufempfehlung!

Review: I can't understand a lot of the negative reviews. I do already use Tonex, so maybe thats why I found the setup easy. you download the driver from the IK Product Manager, you plug the pedal into a USB C port, then open up your Tonex software (or download it if its your first time) Its probably best to use your usual guitar/audio interface to demo new profiles rather than use the tonex as the audio interface. Then you just drag and drop. When done, take the pedal out, plug it into your speakers/hifi, PA, effect return or whetever, just make sure to turn of the speaker IR's if you are using a guitar cab. If ou like the profiles in tonex, then they are exactly when you are putting on the pedal. Simple.now, you can stick this little beauty on the end of your pedal board and use it as your amp - for example, and all my dirt pedals (OCD, Riot, etc) work great into a edge of breakup clean amp profile.Yes the knobs are a bit fiddly, but not impossible. The fact you can also use it for stomp box models, means I can also try out new pedals, Klon anyone? In front of my actual valve amps. Remember this thing is £150 and can basically do what a kemper does without all the bells and whistles.I like the Tonex eco system, and I'm fairly tech savvy. So I'm probably the perfect customer.Oh, FWIW check out third party captures like amalgam, or browse the thousands on Tone.net - its really quite remarkable.
