62 distinct guitar and bass tone pairs across a range of styles— Deathcore, Djent/Prog, Heavy Metal, Instrumental Metal, Metalcore, Pop Punk, and Rock tones
Apex Audio Guitar and Bass Tone Packs are designed for musicians and producers working in rock and metal genres who demand professional-grade tones that require minimal tweaking.
Unlike typical presets that focus on replicating specific amp+cab combinations, our tones are crafted with the final sound in mind, offering a polished, ready-to-use tone right out of the box.
Each pack is meticulously designed for seamless integration between guitar and bass, ensuring they work together in your mix from the start—saving you time and eliminating the hassle of dialing in the perfect match.
Unique Features
Versatile Tone Pairings for Every Metal Subgenre: With 62 distinct guitar and bass tone pairs across a range of styles— Deathcore, Djent/Prog, Heavy Metal, Instrumental Metal, Metalcore, Pop Punk, and Rock—our collection covers all heavy music genres, providing you with the perfect tones for any production.
Instant Guitar & Bass Tone Pairing: Say goodbye to the frustration of finding a bass tone that matches your guitar tone. Our guitar and bass tone pairs are designed to complement each other perfectly, letting you jump straight into production with tones that work together right away.
Programmed Bass Support: With the increasing use of programmed bass in metal production, our tone packs include specialized bass tones optimized for DI bass, giving you enhanced flexibility and a professional sound.
Final Sound Focused: Unlike many competitors who emulate specific amp+cab setups, our tones are centered on the final sound that works best in a mix. These tones are derived from real-world productions, ensuring they’re ready for professional use with minimal adjustments.
​
Creative Stacking for Fuller Tones: In many of my own productions and client sessions, I often stack two tones together to create even fuller and more dynamic sounds. This technique is especially effective in achieving a richer guitar tone, blending distortion bass with another tone that enhances note definition, etc. It’s a versatile approach that allows you to combine the best qualities of multiple tones, adding depth and clarity to your mix.
Genre Diversity
Crafted with the metal and rock producer in mind, Apex Audio tone packs cover a wide range of subgenres, including Deathcore, Metalcore, Djent, Progressive Metal, and more. Whether you’re tracking guitars or bass, our packs are designed to provide you with the ultimate tonal flexibility, ensuring your productions stand out.
