This software is absolutely insane, even better than Helix Native for amp modeling.

[@jorgeguitar2540]

How do you compare Th-u to native?

[@baileyweiss3297]

@@jorgeguitar2540 THU sounds much better for Marshall/metal tones, they're pretty close on cleans though. Overall I felt that "ears unplugged" feeling switching to THU

[@jorgeguitar2540]

Bailey Weiss I didn’t like it at first till today that I switched the input sensitivity to high. Now I’m enjoying it! so no need to buy a neural dsp product. All these months and I didn’t notice it had that function lol I’ll just leave it like that even if the LOW is recommended for single coils. Can wait to try my strat!

[@baileyweiss3297]

I had this same issue at first too. The gain on your interface has a very large impact on the tone

[@jorgeguitar2540]

Bailey Weiss I really don’t know allot about that stuff, I have a focusrite and was told to play hard till the ring is not red. (Only green). I’m confused now, if I switch it back to low and turn the gain knob on the interface, will I have the same response as having it high or it’s independent?

I downloaded the presets and tried to install them in my friend's TH-U, but it's not working. The preset names are shown, but when I click them, nothing changes, and no rig is shown in the window. I deleted and reinstalled multiple times-same thing. Hope i haven't wrecked his ****.....

Thank you for your comment. The free presets were created with TH-U Full so we can't guarantee compatibility with the Editions or the Slate Edition. Very sorry about any confusion. Having those presets in your Edition won't cause any harm, but if you want to use those presets you'll need TH-U Full or download the free trial of TH-U Full. Please give us a call if you have any more questions.
