IK Multimedia TONEX Capture Tone Modeler and Re-amp Box

Packing three vital accessories into one box for the modern guitarist and home recordist, the TONEX Capture from IK Multimedia is an efficient, all-in-one companion for guitarists seeking an accessible way to capture their real amp’s tone perfectly, with or without microphones. Ideal for capturing tone models, the TONEX Capture is also an excellent tool for reamplification, featuring multiple inputs and outputs for different signal levels, advanced AI machine modeling, and ultra-quiet, hum-free output thanks to its ground-lift switches and galvanic isolation.

The TONEX Capture lets you record your rig any way you want with the ability to feed signals directly to your amp and pedals, or use your audio interface for a number of different configurations and signal paths for cabs, amps, or pure AI modeling. Two separate gain stages are included for adjusting levels to and from your amp and the Capture comes equipped with TONEX SE, giving you hundreds of premium tone model presets and access to thousands more via the ToneNET service.

Versatile I/O

The TONEX Capture sports a range of input and output options specifically tuned for easy and powerful amp modeling, reamplification, and recording. With two separately adjustable gain stages, you can record or capture your guitar in any way you can think of, anywhere you want to.

• One 1/4″ line input for audio interfaces and one XLR line output for balanced devices
• A 1/4″ From Amp jack for connecting a direct output signal from an amp
• Dedicated switch for selecting pre-amp output (Line Out) or powered output (Power Out) from amps
• 1/4″ output for connecting directly to guitar amps, isolated from ground loops
• One 1/4″ output for connecting the Amp Out signal directly to a speaker cabinet
• Ground-lift buttons for all outputs, helping to further eliminate ground hum
• Two gain stages with seperate attenuation knobs, ranging from -24 dB to 0 dB

Record Your Rig, Your Way

Direct Amp

TONEX Capture allows you to feed your amp with exactly the right signal using the left attenuation control. The From Amp circuit takes a copy of your amp’s direct output and safely sends it back to your audio interface’s input. Capturing the signal direct means you can record anywhere, without microphones or sound isolation. You can use TONEX’s and AmpliTube’s VIR technology to access hundreds of ultra-authentic virtual cabs and IRs to complete your tone.

Amp + Cab

Have access to a nice mic collection and recording space? You can also use TONEX Capture to capture your unique sound, including your cabinet. First, connect TONEX Capture to your amplifier and audio interface as usual. Then, mic up your cabinet as you prefer, using your interface or standalone mic preamps. Capture your rig’s exact tone without sacrificing flexibility. TONEX’s AI Machine Modeling is so advanced it can even remove the cabinet sound after the fact, letting you virtually audition other cabs and mics to see how they improve your tone.

Amp + Cab Plus Direct

The best of both worlds. Connect both direct amp and amp + cab for unrestrained freedom to build the ultimate guitar or bass tone. Use both the To Amp and From Amp circuits while simultaneously mic’in up your cabinet. The TONEX software can capture either mic’d or direct signal for Tone Modeling. Since Capture’s From Amp circuit is totally passive, it won’t impact the load on your amp or color your tone in any way.

Pedals

TONEX Capture makes it easy to tone model pedals, or just route your recordings through your pedal collection for analog color and warmth. You can connect your audio interface to a pedal using Capture’s To Amp circuit and send the pedal back to your interface’s instrument input. It really is that simple.

Tone Creation at Your Fingertips

Ready for Tone Creation

The TONEX Capture is equipped to start making studio-ready amp tones and presets right out of the box with the bundled TONEX SE software. TONEX SE included 200 high-quality tone model presets, along with 20 amps and 10 pedals, for loads of creative inspiration. TONEX SE provides you with unlimited tone model creation as well as unlimited tone model downloads from the ToneNET service, allowing you to download countless free tones from other users around the world, and upload your own tone creations as well.
