The original CA-X guitar and bass amps, which were based on TH2 and had installation issues for some users, have been replaced and supplemented with 30 new Amp Sim FX Chains that are now part of the 2017.08 update. They are based on TH3 Cakewalk Edition and work in Artist, Professional, and Platinum. I'd be curious if those who have TH3 full installed run into any difficulties, but it should be okay - TH3 cleans up a lot of TH2's loose ends.

It sounds very good! thanks Craig!

Must admit, I had quite a few issues with TH2. TH3 was a much quicker program and felt a lot more stable. I've been using it without issue since it was released. I installed it almost as soon as it was available hoping it would be a better program and was not disappointed. Will try the amp sims when I get a chance.

Good to hear! IIRC you had persistent problems with the original CA-x amp sims. Hopefully that's a thing of the past.

As I posted in my other thread, I assumed that these were presets within TH3 (Full Edition), they are not (at least for me)

I found them, but they're not in the actual TH3 plugin. (Where I would select "Insert Audio FX" from the FX Bin).
Instead they are listed under "Insert FX Chain Presets", which opens a Windows directory, and from their I can choose the 30th Anniversary CA-X Amps.

I'm running full version TH3 and having a problem with these new CA-X FX chains.  I dragged Clean TH3 to the effects bin of a guitar audio track.  Double clicked on it to open it.  If I double click on the TH3 element in the chain, I get popup:
Cakewalk Missing Plugin-In Stand-in
Plugin: TH3
This plugin is missing or improperly installed on your system.
(it gives some more cryptic info after that)
 
I have no known other problem with TH3 working and use it frequently.  I'm wondering if this may be because I only install TH3 vst2 dll and not vst3 dll.  The reason I do this is because there's a known problem with Program Changes working with the vst3 version that Overloud has been aware of for over a year.  I did a rescan of my plugins and tried other CA-X chains and got same result. 

They sound excellent Craig. Thanks very much.

About a year ago, I had a minor issue, whereby the presence of TH3 in a project caused "crackling" when my mouse hovered over a Waves GUI, which has caused me to use S Gear exclusively. I must have another look at TH3.

Do these get downloaded and installed automatically with the Splat update Craig, or are they somewhere else as a separate download?
Thanks

S-Gear will remain your go to, trust me...it's not because of crackling though...for some reason guitar cab sims bundled in baked products always sound sub-par to me including the new set...totally "meh"...of course as usual your mileage may vary...I suppose it comes down to what kind of sounds you use and like...but none of the new ones appeal to me. YMMV
 
S-gear on the other hand...plenty to work with in it...best sim out there are far as I am concerned and Dave Pensado seems to agree...(Into the lair #169)
