Another possibility could be a language thing? or maybe even attempted humour.

Everything is possible, even the impossible.

Well, seriously, it feels like playing a word association game with a sane and well-educated person who pretends to be dyslexic and schizophrenic. Annoying!

They probably want to indicate the hardware that they're modelling, but can't use the real names because of issues around licensing. As ugly as the names are, they probably offer more of a clue (to people more in the know about guitar equipment than me) as to what's being modelled, rather than something like 'Vintage Crunchy Amp'.

That's absolutely clear. All other manufacturers have been doings this for decades. But somehow they all manage to come up with OK to nice substitutions and none of them sell their products with fried jerries inside.

Although I don't mind TH-U GUI not being eye-candy, their naming convention (Rand Sanat, Ornage, etc) bugs me big time. Why on Earth they decided to match the ugliness of the interface and not the beauty of the tone? Such titles hurt my eyes and ears. Maybe that's why I buy rigs like Brit 2000 and avoid messing with Fried Jerries, whatever that means.

I cherish a dream, that one fine day Cakewalk team will be able to implement a fancy score editor.  They even don't need to start from the clean slate. There is  abandon-ware like MagicScore Maestro  or free (as in both speech and beer) LilyPond. I'm a big fan of CbB, not ready to jump ship and start using another DAW.  I do hope the bakers will find a way improve the Staff View or even adapt existing code from aforementioned software.

reaction to their additionnal knobs eq , tone , what ever on their amp is ridiculous , you can crank one knob and have a marginal move in tone ... 

Looks like you need to take your amps apart and solder loose wires back in place.

the tone you re looking for is close to nominal values

Blasphemy! There ain't no perfect tone. Don't even try looking for it, use what you've got!

I love Amplitube's GUI, but my ears love TH-U. Can't help it.

The first Overloud product that will benefit from this new DSP Technology will be TH-U 1.3. It will be released on February 8th: the update will be free for all registered users of any TH-U version.

Did you say the same thing about Izotope when they gave away pretty much the entire elements line over and over again?

I'm not sure. Did I?

Could be wrong, but I don't see this as any cause for concern.  Many times these give aways create an influx in demand for a companies products

Well, I'd rather get a better upgrade offer for existing synths, than a free delay. As good as it it, this delay doesn't create a sufficient prompt to buy the full collection of synths. That is, given the user is aware of other products and still defers the purchase.

I hope this doesn't indicate any sort of crisis at AAS.

Not seeing the glitch here with Ocean Way.

Running a project at 48/24 ASIO buffers at 256. With five VSTi instances on 5 instrument tracks. 3 FX plugins, 2 on tracks and one on master bus.

Interesting! Have you tried it with different buffer sizes? I have and also experimented with different drivers.

The initial response on Facebook was highly positive, and there's a lot of 
heavy hitters there...so take that for what it's worth....

Agreed! I'm by no means a heavy hitter.

Just uploaded a video comparison between OW and AR NX series plugins.  As usual, take it for what it's worth. Enjoy!

Sorry for the delayed response. My music and video projects drive went belly up a few days ago. Had to replace it.

The NX tracker thingy I have no idea what it costs

I tried it with a very low quality webcam, and it works like a charm. No need to mount a microwave transmitter on your head.

Not possible...YET

Nevermind! Just tried it, compared it to the AR3 Studio. It doesn't go an extra mile, in fact it's kind of meh. Glitchy, when you switch speakers and overall not in the same league with the AR3S, although it does sound very similar.

How can I get it for less than $29? I have AR3 Studio and NX.

yes - although they are only EQ curves and most of those headphones (all?) are still currently available so it's not a total disaster I suppose.

I have AKG K712Pro and Sennheiser HD650. Aren't these cans studio grade? Why is it so difficult to include profiles for these models as well? Rhetoric questions, no need to reply.

There is a list of 'supported' headphones

https://www.waves.com/support/nx-headphone-eq-correction

these have EQ curves built in - worth bearing in mind if you are in the market for new headphones and use NX a lot....

Another peculiarity waves-style. Three or four years since the initial release and yet the supported headphones list stays intact.

It finally worked. For some reason the login page kept resetting my login credentials. I had to enter them manually. Waves has a funny way of managing their customers.

For some reason I can't sign into my Waves account. Has anyone experienced anything similar?

No tuner on Nembrini amp sims

Yeah! Because he's got the tone right. If it sounds good - it is good, innit?

Maybe it was a mistake not to upgrade to Komplete 13 Ultimate Collector's Edition during the sales this year...
or maybe next year it'll be $99.99

The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021. My crystal ball ain't working either, but if there's a deal on Complete 13 this Summer - I'm in.

The issue must be with the mix...   

I'm not kidding. If the instrument doesn't sound great OOB, it's, probably not worth the hassle.

Too boomy and still doesn't cut through the mix.

smooth video with more cklean tones 

 

 

Gorgeous reverb, nice delay and pitch-shifting FX. As far as the amp sound goes - it definitely stands apart from the crowd, but somehow lacks something. Can't put it into words. It's almost "there", but not quite.

You mean: 'do we have to scroll  for minutes from the bottom to get to the controls at the top?'

I bet, skillful players can scroll to the top in seconds!

Sorry, guys, I'm late for the rehearsal. I needed to pick up my amp. Can we start?
