Great Tone on the Go

From the first note, players will experience incredibly rich, dynamic, and touch-sensitive tones from an ultra-compact device. TONEX Plug, through its control app, also provides unlimited access to ToneNET, the world's most popular tone-sharing platform. Users can expand their personal library of sounds to suit any style or session at a moment's notice.

Whether it's a beloved vintage amp or models of their own rig, users can load any Tone Model wirelessly and transport themselves to the front of the stage as every nuance of the original rig comes to life. The TONEX Plug is ideal for silent rehearsal and travel.

Practice, Play, and More

With TONEX Plug, users can explore their tone library in complete silence using headphones, stream backing tracks via Bluetooth, jam with YouTube lessons or music-learning apps, all while playing their guitar or bass through high-quality amps and effects. Additionally, a built-in tuner and metronome eliminate the need for extra gear, allowing players to focus on improving their skills or warming up for gigs.

A Community of Great Tone

The TONEX Plug isn't limited to just factory sounds. Through the app, users can instantly connect to ToneNET and explore over 40,000 free Tone Models, as well as Premium and Signature collections. The active ToneNET and Tone Partner community uploads and shares some of the most sought-after amps ever made, all of which are easily searchable by song and artist keywords or by using dedicated filters such as instrument, type, Most Liked, Top 10, and more.

Total Tonal Control

The TONEX Control app for iOS and Android serves as the wireless command center for TONEX Plug, providing real-time control over all parameters. Easily browse and load Tone Models from ToneNET. Edit the amp, cab, EQ, IRs, and TONEX FX with precision, and save changes directly to the hardware.

With drag-and-drop editing and integration with Premium and Signature Collections, TONEX Control transforms the TONEX Plug from a headphone amp into a fully customizable tone workstation that adapts to any workflow.

For Learning, Recording, and More

Whether it's learning new chords or recording professional-level tracks, TONEX Plug gives users more ways to connect. Stream audio wirelessly from devices via Bluetooth or connect directly to a computer to unlock even more possibilities.

With many guitar and bass learning apps offering real-time feedback, the connected TONEX Plug ensures precise note tracking, delivering a studio-quality tone. It's the perfect companion for practicing smarter and sounding better everywhere.

And when inspiration strikes, TONEX Plug also works as a high-quality audio interface. Easily record directly to a desktop setup via USB-C, without the need for extra equipment. The best tones are always just one connection away.

Signature Tone Anywhere

TONEX Plug users can easily capture their own rig and take it anywhere with IK's powerful AI Machine Modeling. The included TONEX Modeler profiles a rig's tone in just minutes using real guitar signals - not just test tones - and delivers unprecedented authenticity. Players can take Tone Models of their own rigs on the road, backstage, or wherever they go.
