How to capture PLUGINS using TONEX (step by step) @paulbradshawguitar

Uploaded November 2024 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago

Here's probably the easiest way of capturing plugins with Ik Multimedia TONEX in Windows using Reaper and ReaRoute

Here's the ToneNet capture i made:
VHT - Deliverance 60 - boosted*
tone.net/tonex/tonemodels/68850

There's a few things to watch out for, but I go through the whole process here, along with an inception ;) style capture i made and uploaded onto ToneNet, please let me know your thoughts and feedback in the comments, would love to hear from you

Heres a quick test on using chatGPT to build a preset for use with guitar on some classic Metallica tones (clean tone on Welcome Home (sanitarium) and Enter Sandman off the Black album) can it build something worthwhile for use in the @fractalaudiosystems FM3/FM9/Axe Fx3 I perhaps have to set a better prompt to use, but it was a fun experiment to see the sorts of results that can come out of it I still much prefer doing research on tones and putting things that way, but this was fun to do you can follow me on IG here https://instagram.com/paulbradshawguitar/ Support me by using any of these links here: ►►► Thomann Affiliate🔊: https://www.thomann.de/intl/thlpg_fi5qa1i74l.html ►►► All my Fractal audio presets 🎸: https://ko-fi.com/s/5a6542f393 ►►► Buy me a coffee ☕: https://ko-fi.com/paulbradshawguitar ►►► All my links 🎧: https://linktr.ee/paulbradshawguitar ✨Lights GVM : https://bit.ly/3OP5BYI GVM SD200b/softbox - https://bit.ly/4gbw9zK Enter the code Paulgvm to get 10% off your order there.
