Cabinet IR
A cabinet impulse response shapes the signal with a recorded cabinet response. It is a different role from the amp’s drive and dynamics.
Using an Amp + Cabinet capture? Check your routing: its cabinet is already part of the capture, so an extra cabinet stage may be unnecessary.
Guitar. Bass. Acoustic.
Choose your instrument on first launch, or change it from the node before Input. Each keeps its own palette, presets and input calibration.
Guitar workspace
A little push, a singing lead, or room for a note to unfold. Build an electric board around your touch.
Bass workspace
Keep the low end present while you find the right amount of warmth, bite and movement.
Acoustic workspace
Refine a pickup, bring out the body, and give the quiet details somewhere to breathe.

Before you plug in
Clear expectations, so you can get back to playing.
A NAM capture models the response of captured gear, such as an amplifier or pedal. A cabinet IR is a recorded impulse response used to shape a cabinet stage. They serve different parts of the sound, so choose the type that matches the place in your chain.
The cabinet is already included in that capture. Inspect your chain before adding another cabinet or IR stage, since the speaker response is already included.
Connect your TONE3000 account and use an internet connection for cloud discovery and downloads. No user API key is required. The creator’s license and compatibility of each capture still apply.
Read the TONE3000 setup guideYes. Local .nam models and WAV cabinet IRs can be imported without cloud browsing. Supported A1/A2 NAM models must use their required sample rate; WAV IRs can be mono or stereo and up to 500 ms long. Check the support guide before choosing a file for your rig.
See setup and compatibilityThey are three workspaces inside one Mac application. Change the instrument from the node before Input. Presets, input calibration and the instrument theme stay separate. Switching instruments closes the previous context; it is not a gapless live change.
The Mac application is in private development. A public installer and public pricing are not available here. Release status lists current availability and the checks still needed before wider distribution.
