Description
IK Multimedia TONEX Board Guitar and Bass Processor
The IK Multimedia TONEX Board is an all-in-one guitar and bass processor built for players who want realistic amp, cabinet and stompbox tones with serious routing, control and live performance flexibility.
Fully compatible with TONEX AI-driven Tone Models, TONEX Board gives you access to hyper-realistic models of real amps, cabinets and stompboxes, powered by IK Multimedia’s AI technology. It is designed to handle everything from studio tone building and direct recording to full live rigs, amp-less setups and advanced pedalboard integration.
All-In-One TONEX Power
TONEX Board brings the TONEX world into a larger, more flexible hardware format. You can run up to 4 simultaneous Tone Models per preset, with 1 amp and 1 stomp per path, giving you far more scope than a simple single-amp modeller.
With access to 60,000+ Tone Models on ToneNET, players can explore a huge library of captured tones, from vintage amps and boutique pedals to modern high-gain rigs and experimental sounds.
Built-In Effects from AmpliTube
Alongside TONEX Tone Models, the board includes 70+ built-in effects derived from AmpliTube and custom-designed processors.
That means you can build full signal chains with drives, modulation, delays, reverbs, studio-style processing and more, without needing to rely on a large external pedalboard.
Flexible Signal Chain and Routing
TONEX Board offers up to 12 effect slots, with splitters and mixers for building more advanced effect chains.
It also includes versatile internal routing, including two amp, cab and FX parallel paths that can be assigned to independent inputs and outputs. This makes it possible to run two different instruments through separate processing chains, or create more complex stage and studio setups.
Preset, Scene and Stomp Modes
For live performance, TONEX Board includes three workflow modes: Preset Mode, Scene Mode and Stomp Mode.
This gives you flexibility depending on how you like to play. You can change complete presets, move between scenes within a sound, or use the board more like a traditional pedalboard with individual stomp-style control.
Touchscreen and Hands-On Control
A 5-inch high-resolution colour touchscreen gives clear visual control over presets, signal chains and parameters.
Five encoders make it easy to adjust settings on the fly, whether you are editing sounds at home, fine-tuning tones in rehearsal or making quick changes before a set.
Studio and Live Connectivity
The rear panel is built for serious integration. TONEX Board includes stereo input, MIDI In/Out, USB-C, headphone output, two expression/control inputs, and dual stereo output options via XLR and TRS.
The stereo FX loop can be placed anywhere in the chain and can also be split into two independent mono FX loops, making it easy to integrate your favourite pedals or external gear.
USB Audio Interface Built In
TONEX Board also works as an integrated 4-in/2-out USB audio interface with direct monitoring.
USB-C is used for loading presets, managing Tone Models, firmware updates and recording. The unit also supports TONEX Librarian for preset and Tone Model transfer and management.
High-Quality Audio Performance
The board features ultra-low noise 24-bit, 192 kHz converters, with a stated 5 Hz–24 kHz frequency response and 123 dB dynamic range.
It is designed for low-latency playing and high-performance processing, helping it feel responsive for both live and studio use.

Who Is It For?
The IK Multimedia TONEX Board is ideal for guitarists and bass players who want a powerful all-in-one processor with realistic amp tones, deep effects, flexible routing and professional live control.
It suits gigging players, studio guitarists, bassists, producers, fly rigs, direct-to-PA setups, amp-less rigs and players already using the TONEX ecosystem who want more hardware control and routing options.
Our Take
TONEX Board looks like the serious flagship option for players who love TONEX tones but want a full floorboard-style processor. The big wins are the touchscreen, deep routing, built-in AmpliTube effects, proper outputs, MIDI control and the ability to run complex signal paths. For players wanting one unit to cover amps, pedals, cabinet sounds, recording and live control, this is a very strong move from IK Multimedia.
