GENOME | Feature Run-Down

[@tfejulienewmar]

This gave me a tone I've been chasing for years in 10 seconds and best of all, it was a free gift for being a loyal customer, which is the coolest thing I've ever known a company do before. I'm still floored by how amazing it sounds. 10/10 ❤❤❤❤❤

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Amazing! We are so pleased to hear this is working out well for you! Spread the word! :)

[@danielcairney5904]

When 1st bought was wondering if it was a fad or greatness. Now, it's in the big leagues with upgrades. A perfect upgrade or reinforcement to you're studio, it really works.Guitar, bass, whatever it works.Plus the improvements keep coming. Thank you for all the hard work, loyalty to you're company is what you deserve

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks so much and we're so pleased to hear you are enjoying it! Sincerely appreciate the support!

[@mnkyby66]

This is an incredible piece of development. If you also figure out to put it in a box for live use, you will crush the competition (and I've had them all). Genome is fabulous!

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks so much for the great feedback! We sincerely appreciate it!

[@6oundStudio]

i've been playing with genome for tge last two days and can't stop. the fact that it can play nam models is absolutely amazing. i also really enjoy fuzz pedal and yellow 250 preamp, they both sound huge. thanks a lot for your hard work and client orientation! if there is an even slight chance of a standalone version, it would change everything for me because i only monitor outside of daw for the lowest latency and cpu economy

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks for getting in touch! Glad to hear you are enjoying GENOME! The good news is, we have a standalone variant on the roadmap!

[@tastedup]

Like some others, I got the "thanks for being loyal customer" email a while back. I had forgotten about it, then I got the email today about the new version. That jogged my memory and I installed the software, not sure what to expect. Initial tests just going DI were promising, but when I used a tube preamp into it - woah, there it is! I've been playing with it for the last couple of hours and I'm amazed at the tone quality. Nice work, Two notes team!

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Amazing news! We are so pleased to hear this! As ever, if you have any questions, we are here to help!

[@NO-TALK-GuitarPlugin]

This will eat neural DSP plugins at breakfast 😅 It’s better, cheaper, more open… and it’s from one of the biggest names of audio professional industry. Total win. Can wait to make the review❤

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Amazing - we are so pleased to hear you like it and thanks for spreading the word!

[@kromatik179]

It was a surprise to me when I got an email from TwoNotes saying that I got a copy of GENOME, specially since the only TN software I had came from registering an Audient Evo4, but I gave it a try and it sounds GREAT, I got great tones in just a few seconds. I'm going to try it live at church next Sunday, if I get it to run offline and configure the midi.

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Great news! We are so pleased to hear this is working out well for you! Let us know how you get on with your Church performance on Sunday!

I immediately downloaded the plugin!! I haven’t been that excited about a product since a while !!! This is so innovative and so promising 🤩 !! I am definitely in ❤ If I can wish something for the future, I would love to be able to change my presets with midi and have a standalone for when I just want to jam and noodles. What an amazing time to be a guitarist 😎

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks for getting in touch and a great suggestion! Consider this fed back to our development team for consideration!

[@Gy.Hoffmann]

Nice Job Two Notes!!! I can't wait to try this thing out, which i got for free from you guys, what a sweet surprise!🔥❤️

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Aw, we are so pleased to hear you like it!

[@No-mart]

My Opus is already awesome. Can't believe we get another 2 preamps for that and now this for free. Insane value! Would be cool to see what new pedals are added in future eg octave/whammy, flanger etc, but this will sure keep me busy for a while. QQ @TwoNotesTV can you midi map an external midi foot controller to the assigns in the amps/fx etc?

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

You certainly can! This would be done via the automation assign and a standard MIDI map to these via your DAW. Let us know if there is anything else we can help you with!

[@adilO.o]

I had exactly the same question and happy to see that there is already an answer 🎉 !!

[@wildmilne]

@@RossDaviesTwoNoteswould love to see hardware capability someday to load the neural models on opus!

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

@@wildmilne Thanks so much for the feedback. Sadly the DSP in OPUS is underpowered when it comes to loading AI captures, however we are always working on exciting developments here at Two notes HQ.

[@hellspark]

Can I load 3rd party VSTs into the component blocks? I'm using Reaper with NAM as a virtual pedalboard, but it's a hassle to make changes because of all the crazy routing I have to do to make it work the way I want. Genome looks clean and simple. I might switch over if I can insert my favorite plugins!

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks for getting in touch. Ross from Two notes here - sadly we do not have VST integration in GENOME at this stage; this is due to not being able to validate every plugin out there for stability purposes. This is however something I have fed back to our development team!

[@paulmccormack2843]

I’m having trouble with changing settings , no response to changes being made any one having the same problem?

[@Polentaccio]

Is Genome essentially what is in the OPUS? I like the sound of the amps, hate playing through my computer and would consider upgrading from my cabM to Opus if the amps sound as good as they do in genome.

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Yes indeed! The TSM amps in OPUS are the very same that are in GENOME!

[@MaPa60]

Thanks Two Notes! This sounds awesome, well done!

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks so much!

[@zeevshaff]

What a way to start the day

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

GENOME is always a good way to start any day! XD

[@Brandon18valensi]

Thanks so much guys! Just downloaded it and it is amazing!

[@ArrakisOCE]

I just spent a week building a MIDI controllable virtual rig in Mainstage all based around NAM but with pre and post effect VSTs.. What a waste of time that was now! Genome looks amazing. Can we assume you can assign every single parameter to outboard MIDI controls via the DAW? I plan to use a wireless foot controller and a panel of rotary knobs for preset tuning. Any plans to continue working on CPU optimisations? Also, if you manage to work this into a floor based unit with the software link for preset design, stereo I/O, and assignable routing for external FX loops you would absolutely be on top of the guitar sim industry (you probably will be already as this one develops). Even better - if there was a modular option for an additional external MIDI switchbox with say 10 or 12 loops for your favorite guitar pedals - which connects not only to your primary floor unit - but you can assign those analog FX anywhere in the signal chain independently via the software. That way you could keep all your analog pedals away in a rack or drawer somewhere and use them in a hybrid setup.

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks for getting in touch - Ross from Two notes here. Every component-level parameter can be assigned to GENOME's Automation Assign, exposing these to your DAW which in turn can be MIDI controlled; please note however preset changes cannot be MIDI controlled at this stage and this will be included in a future Update. Thanks for the hardware feature requests - this has been sent to our team for consideration now!

[@ArrakisOCE]

Hi Ross, I really appreciate the feedback, thanks. MIDI preset changes would be a key requirement for using this live but everything else seems amazing. Looking forward to seeing all the future updates. Best regards. @@RossDaviesTwoNotes

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

@@ArrakisOCE You are most welcome! As ever, if you have any other questions, let me know!

[@MusicChannel-rf5zz]

I have the version they gave free on buying the hardware (Torpedo) & captor).Is there anything more I can upgrade too? I'm wondering which version I have & how to upgrade it .I doubt if what I git as part of the deal was the Ultimate version

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Hi, Ross from Two notes here. Great question - the main difference between the standard edition and ultimate edition is simply our roster of premium components available in the Ultimate Edition. If you were looking to upgrade GENOME to the Ultimate edition spec, you could purchase the EXTENSIONS Complete Collection which is currently in deal as part of our Summer Sale. If you have any questions concerning this, please let me know!

Looks great, congrats on the release!

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks so much!

is there anyway to use proteus guitar ml json files in the compression stage? i have proteus models of outboard gear (1176, la2a etc..) that i wish i could use with something that has gain reduction meter.

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks for getting in touch - not at this stage, however we have fed your comments back to our team now for consideration!

[@harrisondvargo72]

Just wanted to congratulate you guys on such a great release! Recently purchased an OPUS, which is now a center point in my setup, and was not expecting this software release! I have to say, the return so far on buying hardware from you guys has been fantastic! Few companies are as generous, and seeing Genome pop up in my software licenses was a real treat. I'll be diving into the software this weekend, but can already tell this is something special. A very big thank you from a very satisfied customer! Cheers!

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Amazing news, that is great to hear and thanks so much for the continued support - we really do appreciate it!

[@andyzaluski]

Genome crashes Reaper when I attempt to use the offline feature. When I attempt to login(Online I assume) I receive an error that my trial has already been activated. Isn't that the purpose of a trial license? To use it? I almost purchased this software and I'm glad I didn't. I don't need another piece of software reliant on some type of licensing software that crashes my DAW.

[@andyzaluski]

Two Notes did renew my license and everything is working now. I hate these licensing technologies.

[@BrainDeadTX]

It really blows that there’s no stereo input, specially when you r tone hunting with the artist sitting next to you or even mixing, everyone wants their mixes asap and these little details add up, this will be the only reason I won’t be buying it until they add that super important feature

[@No-mart]

My assumption would be you could just open one instance of GENOME per track in your DAW. For stereo set one L one R for the same instrument. For playing with someone else at the same time, just route each instrument to separate tracks.

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks for getting in touch! rest assured this is most certainly on the roadmap and should be implemented relatively quickly!

[@marcohermans3207]

It's a very nice one, with lots and lots of tone shaping options. If I got it right it's free for someone that has already a registered Captor or such? So this can be the replacement of the Wall of sound plugin I use for years now? I like the integration of NAM because I use it a lot these days. Or I can hook up my Tonex pedal and go from there, or my Crazy Tube Circuits Unobtainium Dumble pre-amp....endless possibilities that will keep me busy for a while. It was worth the long waiting . Congratulations !!

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

It is indeed free for anyone with a Wall of Sound license prior to January 25th or registered Two notes Hardware. Let us know if you have any other questions!

[@ConsciousBrosCommunity]

Can you bring Genome to iOS as well?? 😳

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks for getting in touch - Ross from Two notes here. At this stage there is no immediate plan to bring this to iOS however we will certainly feed your request to our development team for consideration!

[@ConsciousBrosCommunity]

@@RossDaviesTwoNotes Thanks for the reply! There´s a big community of ios musicians e.g. on the Audiobus forum who´d appreciate that. Personally I´d want to use the Codex feature, to run analog studio hardware captures such as from AnalogXAI

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

@@ConsciousBrosCommunity Noted and understood - similarly, thank you for clarifying further. Consider this sent to our dev team!

[@wtpmikee]

is the opus capable to load genome presets 100% even split lane ones and all that jazz? does it have any dsp limitations? asking cause the other videos i watched about opus had a different phone app then genome but it was before it came out, did you guys update that app aswell?

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks for getting in touch. GENOME's component and engine arsenal require significant processing power and OPUS' DSP is not capable of accommodating this. However, we are working on OPUS preset import into GENOME in order to build on your go-to tone with the studio-grade component roster in our latest and greatest software ecosystem. Let us know if you have any questions concerning this!

[@saddestchord7622]

Doing a trial of Genome, and it doesn't seem like lane merging is working as expected. If I pan one amp/cap hard right, I can no longer hear it. The meter in the lane mixer shows no sound. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug, I wonder?

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks for getting in touch and we're sorry to hear you are experiencing issues here. There is no reported bug relating to this, however this could be related to your post merge signal chain or your pre split signal chain.

[@mycosys]

TY heaps for responding,@@RossDaviesTwoNotes - we spend most of today using it and its the best amp modeller we've heard. One thing that would be WONDERFUL is the ability to see the levels between the stages with some sort of meter, even a number, a clip LED on the dot where you split, anything XD The only other things that seem to be missing are spring & pate and wah. Its wildly good.

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Not a problem at all@@mycosys ! We are here to help! Great suggestions - we have fed this back to our dev team for consideration now - however within GENOME, internal signals are calculated in 32-bit float format; as such, signals can’t actually ‘clip’ inside GENOME as they might if using fixed 24-bit processing. However, maintaining an optimal volume range will ensure Components sensitive to input gain (Amplifiers/Distortion Pedals) operate within the volume range they were specified for; as such we have noted this to our dev team! Regarding the components, we have a packed roadmap planned so stay tuned for more updates! :)

[@mycosys]

I totally get it wont actually clip. just some indication of where i would be riding 0dBU on the hardware, some sort of peak or signal led, if not a VU, to get those analog emulations driven right @@RossDaviesTwoNotes

Two-Notes dev team: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make the Flatback V TSM available for use in Opus! And if you guys can also somehow allow all the codex stuff and effects into Opus, that’d be THE gamechanger. I don’t even care if you can’t edit the mods and delays except while using Genome, I just want all the badass tones I’m making on there available to me on the go :)

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks for the feedback - sadly pulling CODEX into OPUS wont be possible but we will definitely consider your TSM preamp request for sure!

It crashes immediately upon opening in Reaper. Not sure if it's a Reaper or Genome issue.

[@metallicriffer]

[@__Ben777__]

Can anyone explain how NAM is compatible with Genome, can you load an instance of NAM as a device just like an amp block, or something else?

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Thanks for getting in touch. You can load NAM captures directly in the CODEX component! Let us know if this clarifies things!

[@Tiger1016.]

Woah, so we can route in external gear into the middle of the signal chain, whether it is physical hardware like an amp into a loadbox or possibly even a different external plugin? Did I understand this right? Pretty sure this is the first instance of being able to do this in a guitar plugin so far, and this would be a massive game changer that removes the biggest downside to plugins compared to hardware amp and fx modelers with their flexible external routing options. Assuming this is the case, then the only other thing that could push Genome into complete rarefied air would be to unlock the plugin hosting to host any third-party plugin in any of the blocks on the signal chain. We don't worry about trying to match the slick integration like what you already are doing with NAM for other plugin hosting, but if you could match some of useful things that Gig Performer does, that would be incrementally revolutionary. That said, if there is seamless routing to external plugins, and clicking the block launches these plugin overlays, then that is basically the same thing and good enough. It's a no-brainer if these things can be confirmed!

[@RossDaviesTwoNotes]

Hi Tiger, Thanks for getting in touch. At present there is no facility to route signal in and out of GENOME at user selected points in the signal chain bar the standard inputs and outputs. In addition, VST integration is something we are not planning on implementing; not to to any technical difficulty, rather this is based on stability - sadly we cannot validate every VST plugin out there for stability and reliability and as such we would not feel confident implementing this. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with.

[@chrishillery]

Your use of "carrier-class" so prominently in all your advertising materials is really a poor choice. First off, that's a pretty wonky tech-industry term that most of your audience won't be familiar with, and Google won't help them - most of the hits when searching for it are about aircraft carriers. Secondly, in the industry where "carrier-class" does have a reasonably well-understood meaning (telecommunications), it refers to products and services which have long-standing and battle-proven reliability; robustly secure; implemented atop resilient and/or redundant hardware; with 99.999% availability guarantees. None of those things are accurate for, or even applicable to, a VST plugin. Having that as literally the first words on your product page screws up your messaging and makes everything that comes after it seem suspicious.
