Thermionik Amp Modeler Plugin by Kazrog LLC

DAMN GREAT JOB Kazrog ! Great news for us who don´t have money for "HIS EXPENSIVENESSSSSS - AXE FXII or Kemper". My humble wish are real sounding "big 4 of AMPS" : Mesa Rectifier, Peavey 6505, Bogner Uberschall, Diezel VH4 (Peavey-checked- A\B test samples are already great). Thermionik sounds great! MY only problem now is waiting until you release it but that is my problem

Here's a new blind test, with a more fine-tuned version of Thermionik's 5150 II model. Same guitar DI track as before, with the same Recabinet preset:

Enjoy! Some other very exciting amp models are in the works as well, including the best Mesa Dual Rectifier I've ever played through.

Think B is the Thermionik this time. The bass response is a little boomier on A, and B has a tiny bit of that "whooshing" noise that appears on most amp sims around the 2000-4000 hz region, at least to my ears. Hardly noticeable, but that's my guess

 

[FarBeyondMetal]

This one to me is tougher because A seems to have a bit more gain. I'm gonna say B is the real amp.

I prefer A and I think it's the amp. It sounds a bit more wide while playing the chords and also has more dynamics in general. It's getting really close already.

100% Agreed.

A=amp
B=sim

 

[Boneman]

A - sim
B - amp

 

[Seth Pack]

A/ Amp
B/ Sim

This is sounding real ambitious so far but, It's hard to judge outside of a mix.
Maybe you can throw a quick one together with the 5150 fine tuned thus far?? Trailer just wasn't doin it for me but these clips sound pretty good.

 

[Frak]

Wow man, these are super close. I'm gonna guess here
A = Amp
B = Sim

Even then, I'm probably just biased because of what other people have already said.
My logic behind that was because A feels slightly more "tubey", although that could be because it has a tad more gain.
B has a scratchy type sound that's happening in the top end. Its almost like digital clipping but not quite.

 

[FrankTheSmith]

Did a little match eq curve to so some differences and there was almost none.
Closed my eyes and clicked next a bunch on WMP so I didn't know which one I was which.
Both sounded really good.

 

[anotherpaul]

I prefer A from these. It has a nice low end oomph and smooth high mids whereas B is more on the fizzy side. No idea which is which though!

 

[Machinated]

i'd love to see some well modelled dynamic amps like AC30, marshall plexi's, JMP's etc

I suppose after the likes of dual rec's and 5150's, some boutique amps would be cool like bogner, diesel, VHT, soldano etc.

 

[Studdy]

Any idea on release date?

 

[superkredenc]

IMHO A - Thermionik
B - Real
(palm muting sounds more focused in B, overall sound in B is more "open" than A i think )

 

[Kazrog]

Any idea on release date?

Q2, as the trailer states. There will be a free demo, of course.

 

[Sludgekicker]

I would say B is the amp
but then
if A is the sim its coming astonishingly close to the real stuff.
So tell me now how much longer do i have to wait for a SUNN emulation?

 

[Spectivum]

A amp, B sim

 

[Skaldir]

The real competition would be Real amp through mic'ed cab vs Thermionik through an IR of that mic position

I agree. I thought that this would already be the case for this comparison. Had to go back to read the previous post again.
