Not from Waves. 

Not from Gospel Musicians either.

I think free Prestige (1959 Marshall model) is very good, and coupled with the Britone Cab Pack is plain awesome.

So does the CPU consumption!   LOL!

If you get this, can you post back and tell us your experience? I waited years to get this and picked it up last month and was super excited for the same reason - using it as a Mix FX in Studio One.  But I find it pretty much unusable because of the CPU hit.  (You may want to demo it first.)

I also have been thinking about getting it for the same reason. Then it dawned on me, that we can use any tape/console/preamp as the first effect and just enable built-in MixFX Console to handle Drive, Noise and Crosstalk.

For tape processing I highly recommend Ferox or ReelBus - ToneBooster's v3 plugins, which are now free. CPU hit is virtually non-existent.

PA channel strips are well-known for being CPU efficient. If you happen to have any of those, that support TMT - you're all set.

Is it just me, or anyone else experiences something like this?

Beautiful!

I see this:

They live!

For the Thermionik stuff I think you have to sign up to the new web site as a starter, if I'm recalling correctly, when I went through it way back it was no drama to get all my stuff anyway, I think it was just there

I had been going through this procedure already, when Thermionic was discontinued. Shaun added legacy products to my account. No drama, indeed. Yet, it's quite outdated, not being developed and, despite claims that the AmpCraft replaces Thermionic, it doesn't. Thermionic suite had dozens of amp models, not one. Also, there is no upgrade path from one product to another. The "drama", if you wish to call it that way, is not about regaining access to something very old and hardly relevant. IME, buying Kazrog software often leads to a dead end, when a purchased product becomes obsolete, abandoned and hidden from customer's account.

Contact support and they will add the legacy stuff to your account.  

I know that, thank you. I meant, that I don't like paying for stuff that is likely to become abandoned. Unfortunately, due to such moves Kazrog is one of developers that I don't associate with words "perpetual" and "trustworthy". YMMV.

100% perpetual license on multiple devices

I think I already have such license for the Thermionik suite. Unfortunately, it's no longer available for download in my account. Another perpetual license for potentially abandon-ware? Thank you, but no!

I thought it was HIM.

Aging can be fun.

Any thoughts on this DAW?

Quite a few, actually.

Just finished testing the new amp models against other plugins. I was able to match both tone and response between competing products.

My personal impression. It appears to be Amplitube meets TONEX kind of thing, if it makes sense. You definitely get very alive and natural sounding emulation of the real gear, which is easy to use and reacts to tweaks as it should.

While this new amp emulation is a step in the right direction, it might not add anything new to your existing tool-set. Make sure to demo it first.

Even if you change your name and address after placing an order, your initial address is stored in the order details. Scam site.

I think it's time to create and pin a thread with scam web-sites and sellers.

Amber has got some nice tones and rhythms, but it's a CPU hog.

These new amps up the game for Overloud, no doubt. At first, it feels like either listening to real amp recorded or playing through ... Amplitube.  Gotta test a little more against other plugins.

Nomad’s still pretty sweet. Cherishing their Integral bundle. 

Agreed. Their plugins still sound great and require very little CPU power. Both Pulse-TEC and All-Tec are my go-to EQs for mixing.

LABS used to occupy gigabytes of drive space, although I never used them. Not once since they came out. In fact, they were so uninspiring, I never felt like shopping for Spitfire libraries. I hear good things about Albion, but then again, symphonic music is way above my league.

Arguably, the best Hammond emulation on the market.

Currently, TH-U is the most CPU-friendly amp-sim on the market. I wonder, if the new models will keep up to the rest of it in this department.

AAS GS-2 used to be my go-to instrument for quick and dirty guitar mock-ups. A few years ago I injured my left wrist and was unable to play the guitar. Although now my wrist seems to have recovered from that injury, I still cannot practice/play for more than 30 minutes. That's why I'm looking for easy to use guitar instruments and libraries and often compare their UI/UX against GS-2. It's a very capable little gem (head and shoulders above UJAM, imo) that can do electric, acoustic and nylon string guitars; all strumming and picking is a breeze. The only downside- it cannot compete with quality sampled instruments tonewise.

What I find really unique and thrilling about this plugin is the option to use Proteus models. I've been toying with the idea to write a framework like this, but it's a long shot for a humble start-up. I haven't tried it yet, but if it's possible to design a schematic in Proteus, load it into Genome and immediately hear what it sounds like - that's my dream come true! Awesome feature! (Allegedly)

then simultaneously press the white notes from C2 to A2 to play individual notes, or H2 to strum the whole chord. It's how a guitarist would play the guitar.

Well, these keys allow you to trigger only notes within a chord while you are never sure which  degree (or string) is mapped to those keys in C2-A2 range. And, as I said, you won't be able to play embellishments, because your set of notes is limited by the played chord.

As for guitarists, a real player would expect individual pitch keys to be mapped to a certain string, e.g., C2 -> 6th string, A2 -> 1st string. Not the case here.

Check out AmpleSound guitars, AAS GS-2, AcousticSamples, etc.
