Not sure it's origin or anything, regardless it was too sick not to pickup

I was recently gifted a TONEX, and I’m trying to figure out how I can actually get some use out of it.
I don’t own any physical amps or cabs. I usually record guitar directly through my Apollo Twin and use STL Tones or Guitar Rig for all of my amp sounds. Now I have the Apollo and the TONEX, but I’m not totally sure where the TONEX fits into my setup or whether it would improve anything.
Can I use it as my main amp/cab setup for recording and send it directly into the Apollo? Would it offer any real advantages over using amp sims inside my DAW, like lower latency, better feel, or freeing up processing power?
I’m also curious whether there are any other useful ways to integrate it into a completely amp-free home studio setup (apartment lol). I’m not currently playing live, so this would mostly be for recording and practicing.
Basically, do I have a good use for this thing, or is it mostly redundant with the plugins I already use?

Recently picked up my first PRS and coming from an MM Strat, the difference is shockingly noticeable. Fender seems to be a lost cause nowadays unless it’s a CS.

Coming from a MM Strat, this SE feels unreal! Can’t wait to rip it.

such a fkin banger

All time favorite rider. Took me 5 months to find his board in 159, but finally got the board and bindings paired. November can’t come soon enough
