Store description excerpt

The only guitar rig analyzer that audits your whole signal chain — not just your pedal chain. Layout planners arrange your pedalboard. Pedal-chain tools score the order of a single line of pedals. Tone Trace is the pedalboard planner that analyzes the complete rig: splitters, amps, FX loops, passive Y-cables, MIDI routing, sidechain detection — the full signal chain your gear actually has. Build your guitar rig the way it sits in real life — guitar → pedalboard → splitters → amps → FX loops → parallel branches — and Tone Trace runs the diagnostic checks a working guitar tech would, against verified manufacturer specs. You get a Health Score (0–100) with sub-scores across buffer health, impedance compatibility, pedal order violations, and noise risk. Tap any sub-score to see what's contributing and why. WHAT MAKES IT A RIG ANALYZER, NOT A PEDAL-CHAIN ANALYZER - Amps as first-class nodes — input impedance, FX loop config (series / parallel / stereo), additional inputs, stereo handling. - Splitters and passive Y-cables — source-loading rules, dual-amp ground-loop detection, nested fan-outs. - Real FX loops — Send → loop pedals → Return modeled as actual topology, not flattened into a sequence. - MIDI lane — controller routing over TRS / TRRS / DIN5 connectors, thru-port chaining, timing-jitter analysis. - Sidechain — detection paths, key inputs, gate routing. - Pedalboard canvas — spatial 2D pedalboard planner and drag-and-drop chain builder. Zoom, pan, drag pedals to reposition. SIGNAL CHAIN & PEDALBOARD HEALTH ANALYSIS Tone Trace checks every leg of your signal chain against a ruleset drawn from real rig engineering: buffer placement (the #1 cause of tone suck on stompbox boards), impedance mismatches, pedal order violations (with sonic consequences so you can decide if breaking a rule is intentional), noise risk from daisy-chain power and gain staging, and MIDI routing — TRS/TRRS mismatches, DIN5 adapter needs, thru chain length warnings. ARTIST RIG LIBRARY — FREE Browse, search, and study all 56 annotated guitar rig topologies for free: Gilmour, Edge, Lifeson, Iommi, May, Santana, Young, Morello, Greenwood, Frusciante. See how signal-chain rules and pedal order apply — and how the greats break them on purpose. Load any rig up to 5 pedals straight into your own builder at no cost; loading the bigger rigs (more than 5 pedals) into your builder is where Tone Trace Pro comes in. PRO FEATURES Signal Map — visual flow diagram of the entire guitar rig with impedance values at each node. Troubleshoot Wizard — start with a symptom ("My fuzz sounds thin," "There's a high-pitched whine when I tap the tuner") and the wizard walks the rig graph to surface root causes with fix steps. Set Lists — per-song pedal-setting notes attached to a specific rig. Additional walkthroughs — guided lessons on rig and signal-chain concepts (gain staging, true bypass vs buffered, 4-cable method). Several walkthroughs are free; more unlock with Pro. Tone Trace do
