Hear a tone you love? Get the exact settings for your own gear, in seconds.
ToneCrafter is the tone-matching app for guitar and bass players. Name a song, describe a sound, or chase a vibe, and ToneCrafter dials in exact knob settings, pickup choice, and a pedal-by-pedal chain, all adapted to your specific amp and instrument. No more scrubbing tutorials. No more 40 open browser tabs. Just plug in and sound like the record.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Pick a tone. Search any song or artist, describe a sound in your own words, or start from a classic voicing.
2. Tell us your rig. Choose from 2,500+ guitars and basses, 1,800+ amps, and 600+ pedals, or type in whatever you own.
3. Get your settings. Amp knobs, pickup selection, picking position, and the exact pedals to use, tuned to your gear.
WHY GUITARISTS AND BASSISTS USE IT
• Matched to YOUR gear. A Boss Katana will never be a Mesa Mark IIC+, but it gets far closer than guessing. Every setting adapts to what's actually on your floor.
• Refine in plain words. First match not quite right? Say "more bite," "less low end," or "darker, like the second chorus," and ToneCrafter re-tunes the settings against your rig.
• Built for real rigs. From bedroom modelers (Katana, Spark, Helix, Kemper) to vintage stacks (Plexi, JCM800, Mesa). Single coils, humbuckers, P90s, P-basses, J-basses, active EMGs, all covered.
• Bass is a first-class citizen. Big Muff, SansAmp, B7K, Darkglass, Tube Driver, and the rest. Never an afterthought.
• Community tones. Browse tones other players dialed in on their own rigs, and adapt any of them to yours.
• Works everywhere you do. Your tones, gear profiles, and history sync between the iPhone app and tonecrafter.app on the web.
A CATALOG THAT ACTUALLY HAS YOUR STUFF
