Ok, new tonex one+ user. After many hours, I’m happy with the sound I’ve got in the tonex software, and (after some further adjustments) happy with the sound I’m getting when plugged directly into PA / FOH. That’s via the canvas LI.

However, when I plug this exact same set up into my focusrite, it sound awful. I’ve made sure I’m set to line, rather than inst, and checked input gain levels. But it just sounds so different, and truly awful.

Any ideas what could be going wrong?

Ok so I've succumbed and I'm going ampless. Tonex one seems to fit the bill, and it seems silly not to get the + with the timing. I've got 3 specific Qs:

1. Pedal chain order: I'll likely use it as an A/B clean and dirty amp. So I'm planning to put it after drives and before time/tremolo/judder/stammen pedals. My Q here is, I've seen some debate on having the cab sim on before these pedals. Some say it matters, some don't. Obviously, I won't know until I set it up, how it sounds for me. But interested in hearing how you set yours up similar to this, any work arounds etc. Maybe not using their cab sims and having a second cab sim pedal at the end of the chain? Seems a bit much...?
2. DI/Line isolator. For those playing live, have you found a good line isolator that pairs well, or are you typically just using the FOH DI boxes and dealing with the added gain they produce?
3. Playing at home - given that it's going to be middle of my chain, I think I can't utilise the headphones output on it. Do headphones still work at the end of the chain, with the tonex mid chain? Or else, do you just run into a very flat sounding bedroom amp? (I have a Yamaha THR, specifically). I don't really want to have to buy a FRFR speaker just for this. Otherwise could always plug into my interface and connect headphones that way.

Any other 'wish I had known before' type tips as well please! Thanks in advance!
