Overloud TH-U : Metal preset that is easy to mix!

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

Thumbs up for pronouncing "archetype" like "arch-type" at the end.

[@BenjoCovers]

wait, thats the wrong way? xP

[@romanparfenov9441]

All these videos about guitar tone helped me a lot. Now my demos sounds great without innormal value of equalisation, compression and other. Also you helped me a lot with cab IR selection, i switched them all the time before, but I've never got this nice and clean sound. Thank you bro.

[@istratetm]

I really love my TH3 still. To be honest, i tried all sorts of amp sims(bought or demo) but i always come back to overloud.

[@Infernalhermit]

The rec with KT88's is absolutely crushing. Paired with an Engl cab (one v30, one 12gc) and a bunch of post eqing, I'm utterly in love with it.

[@ShaiqShahMusic]

bro I can't thank you enough for this amazing tutorial - I have been trying to get a good metal tone and this is just too good, exactly what I was looking for - thanks again - you need a lot more views and subs!!!

[@br00talzd00d]

So glad there is another TH3/TH-U user in the guitar KZbin scene. In "Master" try switching the sensitivity to high. Overloud has a little explination when you hover over it. Low is supposedly for single coil pickups and high is for humbuckers. I have been using TH3 for 3 years now and I literally discovered this yesterday.....made a night and day difference in my sustain! Give it a shot!

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

br00talzd00d damn! It does make a difference! Thanks, man!

[@br00talzd00d]

Anytime!

[@br00talzd00d]

I'm honestly not entirely sure @SuomiPerkele but I know that when I activated it, my sustain was absolutely amazing. It was ooooookay before that but I just figured it was normal because every amp sim did that to me as far as the lack of sustain (including but not limited to the SUPER overrated NeuralDSP plugins. I know... Unpopular opinion). But yeah that "high" setting is amazing.

[@istratetm]

I am with you on the Neural stuff. Good but not that good. Thanks for the tip. Can't wait to try it when i get home.

[@e.g.systems6146]

Estate agents are fond of saying "location, location, location...", well, I think that that the whole software thing is "Interface, Interface, Interface". HTU, BIAS FX, etc, all of them are a better choice than some hardware behemoth when it comes to getting the song recorded because they have a visual interface which is SOOOO easy to use that it makes recording a pleasure. THU sounds great, as do many others, and with this many choices of instant tone, it's an easy choice.

[@劉仲齊]

Great tutorial!Will you make a tutorial about how to get a djent,modern tone by the rig player feature in Thu?It sounds so good!

[@janispetku4450]

Good work! TXH a lot!

[@kylediehl0031]

I loveOverloud, I wish Bias would work with the dev team for them and improve the UI and create one great mobile/PC platform for musicians to share and create tones.

[@dudeinastudio9546]

At 5:55 I noticed you have the sensitivity set to Low on the Master section and was wondering if this was just personal preference on your part. Wouldn't it have been better to switch it to High in this case with your Charvel? I read somewhere that setting it to Low is for single coil and High for humbucker pickups. I tried this myself and noticed a huge difference on the overall tone when set to High with my guitar that has both bridge and neck humbuckers. I'm guessing it depends on the player but I find it interesting to see why no one really addresses this. Your thoughts?

[@thomaszaglowek]

Bin neu auf deinem Kanal und finde deine Videos klasse 👍 Ich benutze auch TH-U (Metal-Version). Wieviel, von deinem eingestellten Sound in TH-U, landet nachher wirklich im fertigen Song bzw. wieviel Änderungen nimmst du in deiner DAW noch vor?

[@MyHeavyMetal100]

soulhenge i use the archetype nolly, and I really don't think th-u is better, I'll wait for that review !!

[@vejichan]

Can you share your presets?

[@gibson2623]

Shouldn t the reverb and delay be between amp and cab?

[@MaksymBubyriev]

Cool! Still would bass preset and sound???

[@BenjiLaMaliceOfficiel]

Hey ! Can you describe your signal chain before thé iMac ? The Scarlett ? What do you recommand to track DI guitar ?

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

Reemoon Yes Scarlett 2i2. This is the best to record DI ;)

[@BenjiLaMaliceOfficiel]

@@MilianMalivukMusic I have one and it sound very dull... Do you have a DI box before the 2i2 ?

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

Reemoon No, the Scarlett catches the DI in your DAW

[@Calvine_The_Rockers]

cool and thank you for the video.

[@mikel6237]

Wish you could download tones from a cloud like Bias has.

[@BrandonW4YP]

Hi there, cool video. Gonna checkout some more. Question, i noticed in the background of this video, you have a white boss peddle plugged in before your scarlet 2i2. Is that a gate? Thanks.

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

Yes that is the NS-2 Noise supressor! Very useful

[@Dogslayer]

Sounds surprisingly good, prefer this over the Fortin stuff from what I can hear here. Is this similar to the preset you used playing In Flames stuff in the other video?

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

Yeah very similar, same head (but the 6L6 tubes), same OD and the same IR!

[@Burrako]

Hi! I have a question, for you or for anybody that could help: I am replicating exactly what you have done here. Same preset, every pot, every configuration, same IR, Scarlett Solo 3rd gen, Imac Late 2013, and Mackie studio monitors without any sound compensation (bass, treble, etc). The sound I get is far away from yours. But I mean very far away. It still sounds too digital, not like yours, that it could be in a song without any problem. I wonder what could I be doing wrong, but I think it could be the pickups of my guitar. I have a low-mid range Ibanez with stock pickups and your sound have a real different colour and much more output with same values in TH-U. In fact, when I do palm muting, its sounds "muddy" and digital, and yours sounds very dry and clear. Thanks in advance and congrats for your channel.

[@Burrako]

Ok, I have done a test. I have rendered my recorded track from Reaper to a mp3, and it sounds closest to yours. It still has that "digital" flavour, but its really closer. The thing is: When I play and record I listen what I play through the Mackie monitors, and when I export the track, I hear it from the iMac speakers, because I have it set like that. Reaper through monitors, and iMac stuff (including youtube, etc) through iMac speakers like if I never had any audio interface or monitors. Said that, when I listen to the file through the iMac speakers sounds VERY VERY VERY different than when I play the track through reaper and monitors. I mean very different. I am new to studio monitors and I dont know what is their mission if later the sound is that different for everybody in their common speakers, like my case with iMac speakers. I assume not everybody has a pair of studio monitors to listen music. I am so lost here....

[@carlpanco7417]

You didn't ask this of me but if I understsnd what you're asking, I think I can help. As i undersrand the purpose of studio monitors is to give you an uncolored, flat response of what you're listening to, so you can hear intricacies like, runaway frequencies that you wanna get rid of out of a tone or sound, like "where the hell is that ping from my snare drum coming from" or "can we hunt down the ugly low end of that guitar tone". A good example of incredibly honest and harsh studio monitors are the Yamahas. Very unenjoyable to listen to, but a very honest and flat representation of your sound.

[@Burrako]

@@carlpanco7417 First of all, thanks for taking the time to answer me and try to help me. The point is that I do not quite understand the purpose of this type of study monitors. I am probably using them for a different purpose for which they are created. That is, for example, a KZbin musician creates an "AC / DC" style preset that when I hear it through the speakers sounds clearly like AC / DC, even with my own guitar, which has nothing to do with a Gibson SG, but if I listen to it through the monitors it sounds completely different and I would even say "bad" to my ears. No one would say it is an "AC / DC" sound if you listen to it on my monitors. They would probably say something like "yes, well, a distorted preset, maybe Marshall style although I can't identify it, but nothing more." For me this is as if for my work (I am a designer) I used an 8K hyper retina screen with millions and millions of colors to do a job that will then be seen on a cheap mobile screen or on a $ 80 Acer monitor. Is what I mean understandable? Yesterday I bought a preset for 5 dollars, ACDC style. In the video through my iMac it sounded totally ACDC. I recorded a small piece using the monitors and the sound was horrible. Very treble and very bass at the same time, without definition, without dynamic, flat, absolutely muddy. As soon as I played it through the iMac's speakers, the audio sounded 90% of what I had heard in the video. I understand that this additional 10% difference corresponds to the type of youtuber guitar, its pickups, the probable postproduction of the video ... My intention is not to mix songs or prepare discs for playback, my only intention is to be able to play at home, by myself, without an amplifier but with a good sound, and I'm not sure that this type of studio monitors is what I thought I was looking for. What I need is that it sounds like in the KZbin video, but "better" and louder. And when I say "better", I mean better because I am using monitors and they are presupposed better than some basic speakers of an iMac. Cheers

[@carlpanco7417]

@@Burrako well, and this is something that's going to make monitor snobs groan pretty loud, KRK Rokits, are monitors, but they are also very "listenable". Quite in fact the most common complaint I hear about KRKs is that they "sound too much like decent speakers and not enough like monitors" which may be very true. But, I'm not trying to make the next great american rock record, and don't have money for super nice monitoes anyway so, I got a pair of 8" krk rokits on a good sale and they sound very enjoyable to listen too while also, providing benefits of being studio monitors. You can find older generation Rokits used for good money and to be frank there is hardly a noticable difference in sound between older krk's and current ones. So, that might be a decent solution. Otherwise I'm not sure what you'd be looking for, powered home theater speakers maybe?

[@Burrako]

@@carlpanco7417 I think you hit the key when you said "I'm not trying to make the next great american rock record". That is exactly the point. What I want is that what I thought I could do with a Scarlett Solo and a good pair of speakers is possible, that is, sound louder and with better bass and definition than the tiny speakers of my iMac. I do not want a wonderful sound, but something that sounds very similar between two people who use the same preset, in the case of youtuber musician and me. Probably all I need is simple, better speakers for imac, which I can connect to the outputs of my scarlett Solo, I probably don't even need them to be studio monitors. Maybe at Amazon I could find something at a good price such as "external speakers for imac". My first option was to buy a home amplifier, a Yamaha THR10, but I thought that with a scarlett and a good pair of speakers it wouldn't be limited to 5 or 10 amp models, that's why I discarded the "portability" of the mini yamaha amplifier. I just want to play and practice at home, I have no other claim.

[@danielwieten8617]

What model Duncan's? Pickups make a world of difference in tone

[@AgathiusMusic]

Does THU have Diezel VH4 amp sim because on TH3 they dont have it.

[@valerinaatas]

Hey! Thank you so much - you made me discover Overloud like one year ago and I'm still coming back to TH-U all the time! It's waaay underrated.. Also wanted to ask - I've noticed you're using some kind of pedal before the actual interface, looks pretty much like Boss NS-2 gate. Does it actually help to get a cleaner tone? (I'm just thinking about getting one:)) Thanks!

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

It is an NS-2! Used to use this to have an even cleaner signal, but the internal gate in TH-U is just fine!

[@bobbyhavoc26262000]

Woooow

[@conradnightingale7969]

How do you set up your focusrite when recording? Pad on and max possible Gain before the red light? I am struggling because I feel like.. my raw records are little retards:(

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

I don't have a pad on my 2i2, so switch to INST and I adjust the gain so that when I dig into the strings it's right before clipping but always being green.

[@MikeArelliShreds]

Ok super nerd moment 6:14, for small scrape with the tone sounded like you were going to play The Mirror by Dream Theater lol. I think that tone would work for that.

[@fretbuzz4983]

Can you use other VST fx plugins with this in your DAW?

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

You can use it both as standalone or next to other plugins on a track in your DAW

[@YumeBasil]

Whenever I use this plugin, my guitar tone sounds all crummy and has this weird low quality sound to it. How do I make it sound better?

[@prodnowaymirror]

are you using any cab?

[@YumeBasil]

@@prodnowaymirror I am, and whenever I record my guitars in a mix they don't fit in well since the audio sounds weird.

[@andrewc6224]

Just made this setup along with the video and gotta say, sounds great! A few more tweaks to the midrange in both the amp and 7 band and I got a wicked tone without any hum or falloff from the noise gate! \m/

[@vejichan]

Can u share the preset

[@thedavidshreds]

I've loved TH-3, is TH-U much different? Great tone man, love the channel.

[@paulbarfoot8072]

What tuning do you use as standard?

[@fretbuzz4983]

Also can you load other IR'S?

Yes you can load third party IRs!

Sounds great! Do you prefer it over neural dsp stuff?

[@vejichan]

Can you share your TH-u Preset

[@thomasnielsen7478]

How come you dont have static sounds when not playing?

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

At the top of the plugin window is a section called Master, there's a general noise gate!

[@JosephScholefield]

Great job on the tone, man! For this demonstration, did you use the 805 pedal?

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

Joe S No, I just have the Boss NS-2 Gate in front of the interface to further reduce noise ;)

[@SwainBjornstrandt]

hi! i am interested in getting this. Can you please tell me if i will be able to use it as a x32vst in cubase 5? Thanks in advance!

[@SwainBjornstrandt]

It works. I bought it even if it said it is not supported in cubase 5. It is it works perfectly fine. Now i need to create rigs.

[@zendakk]

For anyone else wondering, yes it installs both 64 bit and 32 bit versions of the plugin, so users of older DAWs are covered.

[@Thiago-Alboneti]

Why even if I do EXACTLY like the videos I see (ALL VIDEOS) the sound never comes out the same as the videos? In the videos, wonderful and heavy timbres always appear, and when I do the same thing here, the sound comes out shit Is it my guitar? Cut Kx5 Is it my audio interface? behringer umc202hd I don't know what else to do. I want to throw all this shit away

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

Check your TH-U settings and set your input sensitivity to high. This makes your tone come alive, had this problem too in the beginning!

[@elzzystream848]

why i cant fine presets named "mix ready metal, super lead, pop rock,ets"?

[@thiagoveloso5615]

loved th3, THU is great, but this valve simulation is something that i'm not happy. made it sound very compressed, midrange madness somethimes, i prefer the old version of the amps. we already have a lot of options and possibilities to eq in a different way, unnecessaary thing to me, but we have more amps so...just a matter of finding another way,
