Tonex Metal Gems is 100 high-gain Tone Models for TONEX, and this Black Friday deal takes 39% off, so it costs $30 until Nov 11, 2026.
The collection covers four amps: a Peavey 5150, a Diezel Herbert, a Soldano SLO-100 and a Bogner Überschall. IK Multimedia says it captured them with its AI Machine Modeling technology in a studio with ideal acoustics.
The Tone Models work across the whole TONEX family, including the free TONEX CS and the TONEX App. You can also load them onto TONEX Pedal for live use.
The 100 models are split across the four amps:
Every amp was captured through a mix of cabs, mics and outboard gear.
The maker lists Marshall JCM800 and Marshall 1960 A cabs, plus a Johnson 4x12 on every amp. Mics include the SM 57, AKG C451B, MD 421 and Royer 121. Preamps and processors include the Neve 1073, Urei 530 and API 512C.
The Diezel Herbert is a 180-watt amp that runs from dynamic cleans to ultra-tight distortion. The collection includes all 3 of its channels, aimed at modern and classic metal.
The Bogner Überschall is known for all-tube distortion and clear string separation. Its 25 models include clean and high-gain settings, plus stomps (Ibanez TS9, ProCo Rat, Klon Centaur) to tighten the amp and push it harder. The maker says it suits extended-range and drop-tuned guitars.
The Soldano SLO-100 dates from 1987 and was one of the first heads with strong harmonics and sustain. Its models cover clean, drive and high-gain, some with a TS-9 and Furman PQ-3, for anything from hard rock to modern metal.
The Peavey 5150 is known for bloom and harmonic saturation. Its 20 models use six cabs, and some add stomps such as the Boss SD-1, Fortin Blade, Marshall Shredmaster and Ibanez TS808.
The collection plays inside TONEX, which runs as a standalone app or as a plug-in in your DAW. Plug-in formats are Audio Units, VST 2, VST 3 and AAX on Mac, and VST 2, VST 3 and AAX on Windows.
TONEX for Mac and PC is a 64-bit application. It needs 4 GB of RAM and 6 GB of drive space, plus an internet connection to authorise it.
On Mac it runs on Intel Core i3 or better with macOS 10.15, or natively on Apple Silicon M1 with macOS 11. On Windows it needs an Intel Core i3 or equivalent with Windows 10.
