The biggest issues with the ToneX One pedal are almost entirely related to the TONEX software. The thing that bothered us the most when we started exploring was that you can't really preview / do a real time test of the tone models and presets.
We were using the ToneX One in the FX loop of a tube amp, so we wanted to hear how it sounded with the power amp and cab. Using headphones would not have worked to know what it actually sounded like.
The problem we faced was that the pedal would pass and process the signal while acting as an audio interface for in and out. So the amp would get the sound of the model set up on the pedal, while the ToneX software would also get it, process it through the selected tone model, and then send it through the pedal to the amp. You would hear everything stacked - gain, reverb, compression... If you have to use a large buffer size, you would even get a kind of delay effect, because the PC would add a noticeable latency to that signal, while the signal on the pedal wouldn't be affected by it.
Your only solution would be to download it, create a preset or directly put the model oh the pedal and then try it on the pedal itself, which is incredibly cumbersome. Eventually we found a workaround that we can live with, but it is still not perfect. This tutorial video shows how we use it now!
