ToneMatcher-style apps stop at knob numbers from a static database. Crack That Tone adds the things that actually get you to the sound.
Technique, pickup, picking position and attack on every result — the half of the tone that lives in your hands, not your gear.
A per-song practice plan — warm-ups, technique drills and a section-by-section breakdown, each with a metronome tempo and matched tutorial videos. (Pro.)
A chromatic tuner that hears your strings on-device, and a 40–240 BPM metronome with tap tempo, time signatures and subdivisions — no second app.
Can't decide what to woodshed? Pick a source — your cracked library, a setlist, an Apple Music search, or a typed list — set how many, and roll. Each pick opens its in-app rig or a Songsterr search, and a typed list saves straight to a setlist. (Pro.)
Connect Apple Music and pull tones from the catalog. Subscribers hear the full track while dialling in. Spotify — coming soon.
Every rig comes back as an emailed build sheet — real Tone3000 NAM captures, one per slot, ready to load on your computer. Play something else? With My Gear matches your amp and pedals with substitute settings.
Play a Line 6 HX Stomp? Get a ready-to-load .hlx preset with Dist, Clean and Lead snapshots on real HX models. On a Hotone Ampero II? A knob-for-knob card dialled on the Ampero's own models — every value, every scene.
Build and save your setlists, then step through an ordered, quick-switch stack of tone cards dialled to your rig — with stage-sized targets.
Submit and upvote settings; approved tones are promoted into the grounding data behind every answer.
Every answer is labelled high / medium / best-guess with a reason. We won't pretend a guess is gospel.
