Hi all,
I’m posting this out of sheer desperation really. I bought the full version of Overloud TH3 and am using it with a Tascam US-4 x4 interface and Rokit 6 monitors.
Try as I might I simply can’t get a decent overdriven guitar sound. in fact many if the presets sound absolutely terrible. I’ve done all the obvious - inputs into the Tascam sound OK; instrument setting selected on the Tascam; no clipping. The overdriven/distorted sounds are awful - really fuzzy and unnatural.
On the Tascam in the settings panel there’s an option for a ‘monitor’ mix or a ‘computer’ mix. With the former, via a knob, you can monitor directly to alleviate latency. I’ve never really understood why you would select one or the other? Can this affect the quality of the sound? I’m currently using ‘computer 1-2’ so the mix knob is redundant. Should I be using the monitor setting?
Sorry if I’m being a bit vague. I’ve been messing around with this for days and am so disappointed with the quality of the results I’m getting. I’m really not expecting a magic bullet from anyone to help with this because there’s so many variables but perhaps some if you may have had problems with amp sims in general and can point me in the right direction. Many thanks.
Dave
