Toxic FX is a sleek, ultra-responsive audio plugin and standalone effects rack engineered for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS.

What Makes Tonic FX Special?
1. Fully Modular & Reorderable Effect Chain
Most mobile multi-effects apps lock you into a rigid signal flow. Tonic FX flips the script by letting you build and reorder your effects rack freely. You can drag and drop individual effect “cards” to experiment with signal order on the fly—place a bitcrusher before a tempo-synced ping-pong delay, or run a 12-band graphic EQ straight into a warm tube amp simulation.
2. 21 Built-In Processing Modules
Tonic FX equips you with 21 distinct processors spanning five key audio categories:
- Drive & Character: Overdrive, 6-model Amp Simulation (with cabinet modeling), Wavefolder/Fuzz, Bitcrusher, and Ring Modulator.
- Modulation: 8-mode Chorus (ranging from vintage analog to lush string ensemble), Phaser, Flanger, Vibrato, Detune, and a responsive Auto-Wah.
- Movement & Spatial: Auto-pan, Tremolo, Stereo Widener, Tempo-synced Delay, and Reverb featuring six distinct algorithmic spaces (Room, Hall, Cathedral, Plate, Spring, and Shimmer).
- Dynamics & EQ: Compressor, Limiter, Noise Gate, a 5-band EQ with custom frequency setup, and a 12-band Graphic EQ.
3. Built for Studio DAWs and Live Performance
Tonic FX operates both as an AUv3/AU plugin—seamlessly loading inside hosts like GarageBand, Logic Pro, AUM, Cubasis, and Drambo—and as a Standalone app capable of processing live microphone or line-in inputs in real time.
For stage performers, Tonic FX includes A–F Scene Switching, letting you instantly toggle complex rack setups mid-set without audio dropouts or harsh clicks. It also boasts full MIDI Learn and host tempo synchronization so your delays and modulations lock directly into your track’s BPM.
