Overview
Toneforge DI Match is the first and only audio plugin of its kind, allowing users to transform their guitar & bass tracks (commonly referred to as “DI” or “direct input/injection” tracks) into hyper-accurate, targeted tones in real-time with zero latency. Use any guitar or bass with any combination of pickups and strings and make it sound like another guitar or bass in seconds!
Some common uses of Toneforge DI Match include:
With Toneforge DI Match, you’ll unlock virtually endless tonal options for your guitar & bass tracks at the source - before they ever hit an amp.
About DI Match Technology
DI Match Technology is a proprietary solution that analyzes and manipulates DI signals. It consists of three digital signal processing techniques: Spectral Matching, Level Matching, and Active Pickup Circuit Simulation. These techniques shape the DI sound at the source, allowing users to achieve the desired tone.
Spectral Matching
Capture the frequency curve and sonic imprint of your instrument in seconds with Toneforge DI Match’s spectral matching. As you play your guitar or bass, the software automatically adjusts the curve until it reaches its optimal state.
Once captured, your DI can be matched to any other DI profile captured or imported into Toneforge DI Match. Get started with one of the included DI profiles from industry leading artists, producers, and the JST team, as well as pink & white noise captures for smoothing.
Level Matching
Once you have matched your Spectral Image to taste, the next often overlooked step that can make or break a tone from the start is achieving nominal gain. Nominal gain is when your volume hits that perfect sweet spot of the amp and other components in the tone. This is where Level Matching comes in. Adjust it to taste, or set it to 100% to match the targeted profile DI profile one to one. It is especially handy when matching a DI to something that has "hotter" pickups.
Active Pickup Circuit Simulation
The Active Pickup Circuit Simulator simulates a real active pickup and allows you to add gain to your DI signal, even if your source is passive! Engage the Active Circuit button and explore the rich tones of an active pickup's internal preamp. You can push your limits even more by using the Gain Knob to give your sound an aggressive and dynamic edge.
With the advanced features of Toneforge DI Match, precision and artistry are at your fingertips.

The Toneforge DI March goes hard. It has contributed that extra missing heavy into my DI guitar chains consistently and been in use since I bought it. Killer DI tool at a great price!
it crashes my Ableton sessions on both Mac and PC. Plus, the only way for a product to successfully do what this claims is for the user to play the same thing as the target DI. But, there’s no way to figure out who played what for the included target DIs. I emailed and he said that no records were kept and there’s no way to hear them. they are just embedded as “targets.” you are going to have wildly different results which makes it clear that this product doesn’t live up to its intentions. I’ve used the same guitar, the same target DI that they included, and I ran it multiple times all with results that are so different and varied that it simply doesn’t do the job that I bought it for. unfortunately, I can’t return it. maybe it works if you use your own target DI, but that’s not why I bought it.
It certainly does good things to my guitar DI Signals, it’s in use ever since I bought it.
Works well and easy to use
This is a pretty cool plug-in.
I havent got in-depth with it very much yet.....but what I have played with.....it is worth the investment.
I mean.........its JST........why wouldnt it be?
Right?😊
