bx_tonebox

Creative multi-effect plugin. Stack six effects modules in any order, and inject your sounds with new vibe, movement and personality in seconds.

  • Modular creative rack

    Six dedicated tone modules you can reorder freely. Build your own vibe instead of fighting fixed FX chains.

  • Mid/side everywhere

    Shape the center and sides independently in every module—width, depth, and movement without extra routing.

  • Instant character control

    Global Scale and Movement macros let you dial in subtle warmth or full-on lo-fi chaos in seconds.

Creative tones, built your way

bx_tonebox is a modular creative multi-effect designed to add color, movement, and personality to your sound—fast. Instead of stacking multiple plugins to chase a vibe, tonebox brings all the essential character tools together in one playful, musical environment.

Six dedicated modules cover everything from saturation and compression to analog drift, noise, filtering, and digital grit. Reorder them freely, sculpt them in stereo or mid/side, and build your own custom tone rack that reacts exactly the way you want. From analog warmth to overt grit, or full-on digital destruction—it’s all at your fingertips, and always under your control.

A modular alternative to classic multi-effects

Many multi-effect and character plugins sound great but lock you into fixed signal chains and workflows. bx_tonebox allows you to choose the order and selection of active modules.

Want to stack four different Drive modules and multiple Circuit modules to design your ultimate tailored distortion effect? No sweat. With bx_tonebox, it’s a breeze to set up within a single interface, all at the speed of your ideas.

Mid/side control without the complexity

Every bx_tonebox module includes the option for built-in mid/side processing, making it easy to add width, depth, movement or clarity exactly where you need it. Push saturation into the sides while keeping the center clean, or add drift and noise at the edges around a solid, punchy core sound—no extra routing, no additional plugins.

Fast vibes. Real personality.

bx_tonebox exists for producers who want their music to feel alive. Digital audio can often be too pristine, and bx_tonebox brings back the charm of imperfection: wobble, grit, ear-catching sonic instability and movement that is often the missing ingredient to make a static mix exciting again.

Use it to flip samples, add punch and texture to drums, warm up synths, or give entire mixes a subtle analog-style push. It’s not a mastering tool, it’s not aiming for transparency. bx_tonebox is an endlessly creative box for building your own sonic identity—quickly, musically, and without limitations.
