Frequently Asked Questions
Are all your ToneX captures in polarity (phase)?
Yes! I make absolutely sure that all my ToneX captures are in polarity with each other so you don’t have to use a polarity reverse device or reverse the polarity on your FOH console live or when recording. On the Quad Cortex, however, there are random times when one capture will be reversed polarity, even though the majority of the other captures are correct. This may be a glitch in the capture process but it’s easy enough to turn the phase switch on'/off in the merge block to correct it.
What Input Trim Do You Use on ToneX?
+8.5db | AC30, Prosonic, Clubman, Tone Cat
+0db | Prosonic “Warm”, DR80, Revenue, Chimera, and all newer captures
If you’d like to use the first set of amps but with your Input Trim set at 0db, simply increase the Gain on the AC30, Prosonic, Clubman, Tone Cat to 8.2.
Do you run sales?
Instead of offering sporadic sales, I price my products reasonably and provide lifetime updates which adds more value over time. Make sure you create an account when you checkout so that you can come back and re-download your updated purchases at any time! I also offer bundles for many different captures and presets which saves money.
When is your next amp/preset release going to be?
Right now, I’m basically a one-man operation and I don’t set firm release dates on anything. But before I release a product, I make sure it’s well tested live and in the studio before it gets in anyones hands. I make my captures and presets very carefully and often slower than many others. I’m of the philosophy that I’d rather choose quality over quantity.
What’s your approach to tone in general?
This is a complicated answer and one that I have plans on making a series of content for. Stay tuned for a “How To Dial in Tone” series!
