Definitely liking some of the tone models; the "Overdrive Special" is based on a Dumble and it sounds fantastic.

I find the software so confusing to use though. Just editing a preset to add reverb is quite an ordeal. Perhaps I'm doing it wrong?

Here's what I'm doing:
- find the preset on the pedal in the Librarian view
- copy it to my local library
- click "Home" then add reverb (or make whatever other changes)
- click the very obscure, and hard to find "save" icon next to the preset. Click save -> okay
- go back to the librarian
- change the "Tone models browser" selection back to Presets
- drag the tone model back to the pedal...

Surely this isn't the right way to do it?

I realise I can edit on the pedal, but I couldn't figure out how to change the reverb type on the pedal.

To change the reverb type of a preset using the pedal:

1. Push the knob labelled 'Parameter' (Bottom leftmost knob). The display will now show what additional parameters to edit.
2. Scroll through the additional parameters by turning that knob. You can change the reverb type by scrolling until the display shows 'REV TYPE'.
3. Push the knob again to see what reverb type the preset has (e.g. 'PLATE')
4. Scroll through the different reverb types and select the one by pushing the knob.
5. Go back out of the 'additional parameters' menu by pushing the 'BACK' knob (top right knob).

The Tonex Pedal User Guide should show you the complete list of additional parameters you can edit using the pedal.

I usually prefer proper miked up rigs over the direct ones that need IRs added.
The Marshall stuff is bang on, and dare I say it, better than a lot of the best Marshall profiles I've tried through the Kemper. The ToneX captures have more kerrang and bite in the upper mids, very cool to play!
So this afternoon I profiled a couple of tonex captures into the Kemper and they're virtually identical.
Tonex captures full time for me from now on.

I’m more than a little confused here!

Are you saying you used the kemper to profile your tonex and that resulted in profiles on the kemper that sounded virtually identical to the tonex running the profiled tonex captures?

That's great! Any particular Marshall models you recommend? With 26k models, it's a bit hard to know where to start!

Yeah so I bought the capture box because I want to do my own amp captures. Got access to ToneNet and tried some captures out through my interface. Installed my fave ones into the Kemper using the computer amp Sim profiling method in the manual. They sound and feel EXACTLY the same.

Interesting- I’ve never tried this
