Stop Forgetting Your Best Tones.
Visually save and understand your pedal and amp settings.
Visually save and understand your pedal and amp settings.
PedalPlex is a digital tool that helps guitarists and bassists save, organize and recall their pedal settings and amplifier configurations. Store knob positions and tone presets in one place. Because Great Tones Deserve a Save Button.
PedalPlex lets you to:
Explore a growing library of pedals and amps. Visualize and customize their controls to match your real gear.
Arrange pedals and amps to create faithful digital copies of your setups. Build as many rigs as you need for songs, riffs, or gigs.
Capture exact knob and switch positions for instant recall. Organize your tones and riffs for easy access anytime.
Discover new tone ideas and combinations. SubPlexes show why a tone works and how to creatively explore your gear.
Photos freeze the past. MIDI saves machines.
PedalPlex preserves your decisions.
No. PedalPlex does not generate or simulate sound. It helps you visually document and organize real pedal and amp settings so you can recreate your tones accurately.
PedalPlex saves your exact knob and switch positions. Tone will always depend on the amp, guitar, room, and context — but PedalPlex preserves your decisions, so you always know what you did and why.
Photos freeze a moment. PedalPlex lets you organize tones by songs and sessions, save multiple versions, add descriptions and tags, and understand how each piece of gear contributes to the final tone. It’s documentation, not just memory.
A Rig is your full pedalboard and amp setup. A Plex is a complete saved configuration of that rig. A SubPlex is a saved configuration of a single piece of gear, helping you understand why that setting works.
Yes. PedalPlex is free to use.
No. PedalPlex runs in your browser. You can access it from desktop or mobile without installing software.
Yes. PedalPlex works for guitar and bass rigs.
If you play live, record in different sessions, experiment with multiple tones, or use boutique or complex pedals, PedalPlex helps you stop guessing and start remembering.
Until you don’t. Live shows, rehearsals, last-minute tweaks, and studio adjustments make tones evolve. PedalPlex ensures you never rely on memory alone.
Even simple rigs change over time. Small gain adjustments, different delay mixes, or subtle EQ tweaks matter. PedalPlex captures those micro-decisions before they’re forgotten.
Perfect. PedalPlex doesn’t lock you into one “correct” tone. It lets you document versions, compare them, and understand what changed.
No. PedalPlex doesn’t create tone. It preserves your creative decisions so your ears can keep exploring instead of retracing steps.
Both. Beginners learn faster by understanding why settings work. Experienced players stop losing tones they worked hard to build.
Before a gig, check your exact settings, rebuild your board quickly, and restore tones after transport or accidental knob movement. After a gig, save what worked and refine what didn’t.
Not at all. PedalPlex respects analog gear. It simply adds structure and memory to it.
SubPlexes don’t just save knob positions. They capture intent. Instead of “Gain at 2 o’clock,” you remember tight low-gain rhythm, gated pulse fuzz, or wide ambient drive. That’s a deeper level of understanding.
PedalPlex is free and always will be. If you find it useful, you can support hosting and domain costs here.
