The old saying goes, guitar sims are good on guitars, and great on everything else. This is no exception, I think the best deal here is for the FX package that gets you a ton of iOS effects very cheaply. These work in stereo, they work without any guitar stuff interfering, they are absolutely studio grade processors for AUM or your iOS DAW. You also get models you’ve already bought on desktop for $1 fee.The negatives are that the preset handling and MIDI implementation and general UI is full of jank to the point of near unusability. AUM Presets will be lost at random times leaving you with a blank pedalboard…you need to save presets internally to THU always. They have their own MIDI mapping thing where they don’t publish out to the plug-in interface so you have to see what can work there I still haven’t dug into it. When AUM gets into a memory crunch it can bail out the THU plugs before it does others, suggesting they have some bloated cross-platform library or something in use. Finish the product!But it’s hard to complain too hard with this deal and I even bought some of the individual modules like the Blue Sky and the Binson Echorec. And just because they put a pedal UI on a processor doesn’t make it worse than the ones that have a rack UI. They are one of many choices in desktop but there’s nothing quite this extensive on iOS and they should get rid of the jank to earn a certified hit.

Downloaded the free app to trial it on iPad Pro, with high hopes and a willingness to adopt if it was useful. Although there were initial disappointments, they have all been ironed out over the last few months and I can safely say that with AUv3, frequent updates, fixes and new amp packs available this is now the premiere all-in-one solution for iOS guitarists — especially who use a host/DAW.The raw amp sims sound great and very usable. FX are abundant — though I personally find the layout a little clunky. Still, it’s highly programable and the quality is excellent. Also very nice to have the same platform for desktop and iOS.iConnectivity iConnectAUDIO4+ support has now been added by the developers which I’m very grateful for.

I don’t know how Bias is popular, but it sounds like a toy compared to this. I know these guys have been in the amp sim game for a while, and they know how to make it sound and feel inspiring to play. The stereo routing and especially AUv3 support make this dominate anything else. I don’t mind the slider based ui since I got used to it since fake knobs are fiddly. The main request would be a an auto mute when changing interfaces. That would help eliminate feedback when you unplug your interface and forget to mute. Also, the looper needs some work. Otherwise, keep up the great work!

Much as I love TH-U on the PC this is not working at all. I’m using it with my AXE I/O and all I get is the unprocessed sound. GE Labs works fine so I’m not sure what the issue is. I hope they get it worked out soon I’ve been waiting on this for months since it was hinted back during winter NAMM. I’ll report back if they get it working. Under Global information everything looks correct and the tuner even works, so I’m not sure why it won’t process the sounds.Update, the great support team has resolved allThe issues I was having and it’s working fantastic now. Thank you Overloud!
