TONEX resources

Welcome !

Welcome to this page dedicated to the TONEX system from IK Multimedia. You will find demos, Internet links and resources as well as TONEX DI / IRs associations ideas, mainly from the models I capture and share on Tone.net. I will also add usage recommendations for my models as well as some details on the captured amps.

TONEX models

If you are new to TONEX, you can check the many YouTube video resources with demos and reviews and you can also check my review of the TONEX here : https://overdriven.fr/overdriven/index.php/2023/04/30/ik-multimedia-tonex-review/.

In the tables presenting the TONEX models that I share, you will find a model type column : I will be using Full Profile (FP) for amp+cab or complex rigs including cabs, DI for amp only and ST for Stomp models.

All the profiles I will be sharing on Tone.net will use an ODN (OverDriveN) prefix in their names. Some demos of IR associations for DI only models are available on this page : most of the times, these IRs will come from the freely available Overdriven.fr IRs (you can access the download page here : https://overdriven.fr/overdriven/index.php/irdownloads/)

Randall EOD 88 models

This amp is not available anymore from Randall : if you want to learn more about it you can check my review of this amp here : https://overdriven.fr/overdriven/index.php/2020/04/18/randall-eod-88-review/

In short, this KT 88 amp is a one channel amp with 3 gain modes : standard, boosted and fuzz, as it features an on-board fuzz circuit. The TONEX models are captured in home-studio conditions, with my fully re-tubed EOD running a custom set of preamp tubes and JJ KT88 power tubes. I re-biased it to a relatively cold setting.

You can download Overdriven.fr models directly from Tone.net : for the EOD 88 models, search for ODN EOD: https://www.tone.net/tonex/search/?q=ODN+EOD&search_filters=

The available models are listed in the table below. The full profiles were captured with an Horizon Devices Precision Drive with a “unity setting”. You may want to boost you guitar signal by using an overdrive in front of your TONEX system if you need to boost and adapt. I’d suggest using most of these models with the gain set between 3,5 and 5.
