The latest addition to the TONEX Ecosystem packs an entire rig’s worth of user-selected gear to upgrade and expand any size pedalboard with the power of AI Modeling
April 24, 2024 – IK Multimedia announces TONEX ONE, putting IK’s revolutionary AI Machine Modeling technology on any size pedalboard and enabling users to perform with the world’s most sought-after tones in more ways than ever. Budget friendly, TONEX ONE makes the world’s best amps and effects accessible to all performing guitar and bass players.
Ultra-compact and powerful, TONEX ONE plays hyper-realistic modeled amps, cabs and stomps from a nearly infinite supply. It features 3 playable slots that are easily swapped on the fly with any of the 20 Tone Model presets in its active memory.
To swap any of the 20 preloaded presets, users can connect TONEX ONE to a computer via USB-C and quickly transfer new Tone Models from their local library, ToneNET (IK’s tone-sharing platform), or their own gear captured with the included TONEX software. With multiple units on a single pedalboard, the tone possibilities are truly limitless.

Small Size, Huge Sound
TONEX ONE packs the same incredible responsiveness and dynamics as TONEX Pedal, but in a mini format that saves space and travels anywhere. Presets can be fine-tuned on the fly using the onboard gain/volume and 3-band EQ, then FX like noise gate, compression and stereo reverb are there to dial in the right sound at any live venue. All changes made are automatically saved without a computer and ready for the next rehearsal or gig.
Infinite Tones on Tap
TONEX ONE keeps users inspired no matter where their musical journey takes them. Store up to 20 presets from the included 200+ premium Tone Models or download any of the over 25,000 and growing user Tone Models from ToneNET directly to the pedal. Add more tones with IK Signature Collections or explore hundreds of ever-expanding Tone Partner collections that feature rare, vintage and modern amps and pedals expertly dialed in.
The Best Gear Forever and Always
It’s never been easier to create a virtual version of one’s favorite amps and pedals. Capture any rig with the included TONEX SE software for use across the entire TONEX Ecosystem including: TONEX ONE, TONEX Mac/PC, TONEX Pedal and TONEX iOS. Imagine always having favorite gear on hand with TONEX ONE to play live or in the studio.
Speaking of studio, TONEX ONE doubles as a handy USB-C audio interface for recording electric guitar or bass on a Mac/PC. For low-latency monitoring, users can record with any of the onboard Tone Models and effects, while using the stomp button in real time to switch between presets. The TRS/stereo output works with both headphones or active speakers for monitoring.
Ready for the Road
TONEX ONE delivers not only jaw-dropping tones and essential effects, but also the right connectivity and controls for the best performance possible at each venue. Select between Dual A/B or Stomp operating modes for either channel-switching type operation or standard pedal on/off function when using stomp captures.
The 3 micro knobs feature 9 custom LED colors that can be assigned and saved to any preset for visual identification of the selected Tone Model, or for differentiating between multiple TONEX ONE pedals during live performance. TONEX ONE also makes streamlining for travel easy with its onboard smart tuner.
Any Rig, Any Size
Designed to fit all pedalboards and small enough to chain multiple pedals, TONEX ONE gives users the freedom to build the perfect travel rig or enhance their existing pedalboard. Use 2 TONEX ONE pedals to create a killer stereo rig or place multiple units in series for tone stacking and boosting lead and rhythm tones.
TONEX ONE is simple to use and connects to any type of guitar or bass rig including real amps, PA systems and FRFR (Full Range, Flat Response) cabs. Its “no cab” option is a must when using real guitar cabinets or speaker emulators. Or activate the “cab” for consistent, pristine miked cabinet tones night after night. Even load custom IRs to use with other gear to experience rich, cranked amp tones at any volume level, perfect for in-ear monitors or where controlling stage volume is essential.
Expanding Ecosystem of Tone
TONEX ONE goes beyond the stage with the massive ToneNET community sharing new tones daily (currently offering well over 25,000 Tone Models). Explore, demo and
download, or share gear captures with the community instantly within the included TONEX software.
TONEX ONE represents a revolution for guitar and bass players. Throw it in the gig bag and never leave home without the best rigs in the world.
