Description
Overview
The Live Ready Sound Ace 50 Tone Collection is a professional expansion for the IK Multimedia TONEX ecosystem, engineered to deliver authentic, stage-ready amplifier tones to your studio or live rig. Developed by Live Ready Sound, this collection focuses on high-fidelity captures that translate effectively across any environment, from intimate club settings to large concert halls.
Designed for maximum flexibility, this collection provides a versatile array of tones captured after the power amp. By omitting built-in speaker emulation, the Ace 50 collection grants producers and guitarists total creative control, allowing you to shape the final sonic character using your own preferred cabinet simulations or Impulse Responses (IRs).
Key Details
- Professional Tone Library: A curated collection of 22 high-quality tones specifically engineered for the TONEX platform.
- Elite Speaker Foundations: Captures are based on legendary speakers, including the Celestion Alnico Blue, Jensen Blackbird 100, and V30.
- Premium Microphone Selection: Tones were captured using an industry-standard microphone locker, featuring the E609, M160, R121, 414, Fat Head, and SM57.
- Direct Power Amp Routing: Includes 10 no-cabinet captures taken directly after the power amp for maximum signal chain flexibility.
Use Cases
- Live Performance: Ideal for guitarists who require reliable, “cut-through-the-mix” tones that are proven to perform in professional live environments.
- Studio Production: Perfect for composing, editing, and mixing sessions where repeatable, high-end amp tones are required without the need for physical microphone setups.
- Sound Design: A powerful resource for producers looking to experiment with different power amp responses and specific speaker characteristics.
Installation
This is a software product delivered via digital license. To install the collection:
- Log in to ToneNET using your IK Multimedia account credentials.
- Follow the publisher’s instructions for downloading and authorizing the collection.
- Perform a DAW/plugin scan to ensure the new tones are recognized within your host environment.
Pro Tip for Optimal Gain Staging: For the best results, set your audio interface instrument level to 0. If you are using high-output humbuckers, it is recommended to slightly roll back the volume on your guitar or lower the input gain within TONEX to prevent clipping.
