![]() For the first time ever, you were no longer limited to the game being hardwired to the system, its whopping 4KB of proprietary data was instead affixed to a removable cartridge. ![]() Pardon my middle-age here, but do you remember the Atari 2600? Long before gaming’s current state of hyperreal movements and textures, the Atari was a gargantuan sea change in home entertainment. ![]() It’s not just a bigger selection of amplifiers and cabinets and effects – it’s accessing ToneHub’s modular “tone engine”, which now offers approaching two dozen-worth of well-known producers and engineers contributing their secret sauce collection of sounds and their sources. STL Tones’ ToneHub (Mac/PC VST/AAX/AU/Standalone $199) takes the same excellent amplifier and cabinet modeling heard with Tonality and literally blows the lid right open. And for those people, they’d be much better served by Tonality’s “big brother”, ToneHub. Though we universally praised both its ease of use and staggeringly solid emulation, a frequent remark was that without more granular tone-tweaks like mic placement and a more robust effect assortment, some might find themselves left wanting. A few months back, we did a fairly comprehensive review of STL Tones’ “Tonality” – which now offers a layer of Chris Lord-Alge-ness with a selection of his own “pre-mixed” presets.
