OK Beep... how about just recording some of your favorite tones for us to hear.  I'd be interested.  Doesn't even have to be a "song".  I've explored TH2 only a little and have not found all those presets yet.  Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

Post'em!!

TH2 definitely seems to have potential. I haven't spent much time with it, but I think that once I become familiar with it, I could get some really useful sounds. I like the way they handle the "miking," too. I'll still need the EQ trick, though, and don't forget about the "de-esser before amp" trick.

Hey Mr. Anderton. De-Esser before amp, that made me curious. Care to elaborate a little? Or point me to a place where I can learn some more? I'm curious of how and why that would affect my sound and why I should do it. Even more important - when I play a guitar tuned to B or A wouldn't that kill the attack?

Hmmm... I should spend Some time with it.

hmmm... yeah, reading Beep's posts here I thinking the same. I suppose I could get used to the interface after all.


What's the upgrade? $99 if I remember correctly......

Yeah, but the price probably doesn't last forever. I'm really comfortable with Guitar Rig and not sure if I should upgrade or just stick with what's inside the Sonar version. I need to research this. I really want the Mark Studio plug in from Overloud. Perhaps I should just get that and be happy with what I have. I am tired of IK's Ampeg plug, even though it's pretty good.

Now let's hold our breath and see how long it takes before Mr. Anderton replies to it

I think he was referring to this...

Ah, cool! Bookmarked! I will experiment with this later. Thanks!


Still curious about the de-esser though

 Last night I took some time and played with TH2. It was too late for me to plug in a guitar so I put it in a pre recorded track. I have to say that there is some real potential here. I didn't think that the GUI was bad at all, in fact I rather like the way you can move those mikes around.

 A great addition to X2. The guy who doesn't  have many or any amp modelers  will have something  decent to work with.I could see myself using it even though I have a few.Sometimes simplicity rules over quantity and features.

This thread is inspiring!   I haven't bothered to even try out the TH2 because I figured it's just another disappointment... yadda yadda yadda.

I was able to get some very nice tones out of the Orange amp in GR4 after tweaking it to death and now y'all have inspired me to get out my guitar and take TH2 for a spin!!!!

When I first started messing with it I wanted to record all the presets and variations then some custom settings to post but I realized it would be a pretty lengthy adventure. Maybe after I finish the tune I'm working on. For now though maybe I'll just make a snippet using my current setting. Cheers.

And one thing I noticed is that for chunky presets it inserts the overdrive pedal AFTER the head. I didn't like that too much so I swapped the head and the pedal so the pedal was first in the chain. Much better.
