ToneDeluxe: Tube Sound of Legendary Amplifiers in Your DAW

Experience the authentic warmth, richness, and unparalleled dynamics of classic tube guitar amplifiers right in your DAW with the ToneDeluxe plugin from lostin70s. This is a deep and meticulous analog simulation that reproduces the full signal path: from the preamp through ECC83 and EL34 tubes to the virtual cabinet.

ToneDeluxe is designed with attention to the details that matter to guitarists. A key advantage is the use of an analog-style time model, which minimizes latency for comfortable playing and instant response. The plugin reacts beautifully to dynamics: from a light touch of the strings for a clean sound to an aggressive attack for overdrive. This sensitivity to volume adds realism and expression.

Two Worlds of Sound: Clean and High Gain Channels

ToneDeluxe offers flexibility with two fully independent channels, each with its unique character and separate Gain and Volume controls:

  • Clean Channel: Ideal for transmitting crystal-clear, warm, and rich-in-overtones sound. Suitable for funky rhythms, arpeggios, jazz, or as a platform for effects pedals. Dynamic response allows you to control the degree of “breakup” by the force of the string strike.
  • High Gain Channel: Your palette for a variety of overdrive sounds – from light overdrive to dense distortion for rock and metal. The DriveTone function allows you to flexibly adjust the character of the overdrive before the equalization section, emphasizing or cutting high frequencies. This gives considerable freedom in shaping a unique timbre.

Full Control Over Tone and Space

For final sound polishing, ToneDeluxe is equipped with the following tools:

  • Full Equalization Section (Tone Stack): Detailed adjustment of the frequency balance (Bass, Middle, Treble), as on classic amplifiers. Realistic and musical control over the tone.
  • Built-in Reverb: Two models of authentic spring reverb. Add a classic vintage “splash” for volume and atmosphere, perfect for surf, blues or classic rock.
  • Cabinet Selection: Five guitar cabinet models to choose from. Find the perfect combination of amplifier and speakers for any style or mix. Switch quickly to hear the changes.

ToneDeluxe in Your Workflow

The ToneDeluxe plugin is an indispensable tool for professionals and beginners. Ideal for:

  • Recording guitars in the studio or at home with high-quality tube sound without the need for a physical amplifier.
  • Creating demo recordings or quick ideas.
  • Live performances where stable and controlled sound is needed.
  • Experimenting with sound and finding new timbral solutions.

Available in VST and AU formats, ToneDeluxe easily integrates with most DAWs on Windows (32/64-bit) and MacOS. Developed by lostin70s with a passion for analog sound, it embodies the traditions of tube amplification in a convenient digital format.
