TwoNotes GENOME!!!

Sounds very much like what the VST did when it was still in BETA. After the first crash, it worked fine on relaunching. @AmyTwonotes
Mine crashed twice in a row the exact same way so I just went straight to the plugin version.

My thoughts are by and large the same as before. I think it sounds pretty good, the newer models are better still. There’s something about it that makes me think “this sounds good, but doesn’t sound accurate”. Set the MV to 10, then compare to a real amp.

Similarly, not sure how I feel about a 5150 having “contour” rather than the proper resonance and depth. Similar for the recto model, I’d just prefer if it was a proper end to end emulation with all the same switches and behaviours of the real amp. Also feels weird to me to have a list of amps of different tech approaches and quality, with $ locked ones mixed in too. If they keep adding the way they are it’ll get really bloated.

A lot to like though, and Two Notes are absolutely doing a lot right that other companies are fumbling the ball on. Keen to keep an eye on it.

I have the Badlander 100W on order at Thomann; it should have been back in stock today but looks like it hasn't happened yet.

I'll put it against their Rockrider to gauge how the Genome version fares to the EU production line.

Very much looking forward to that. If Genome captures the essence of the real Badlander I’ll be very impressed
 
Installed, loaded the standalone app. First thought was "ooh this looks nice" while setting up audio preferences. App crashes when assigning input and output channels. No idea where to report bugs but hopefully someone from Two Notes skims the thread (assuming others will have experienced this already too so they're probably aware).
Hi @MirrorProfiles,

However if you're not on socials, please submit a ticket to our Helpdesk and we can look in to this further!
 
Mine worked fine too, M2 Air, Sonoma. I think the add ons are a bit pricey.
I have to agree. The Ultimate edition is $269.99 and for that from what I can see, the only difference between the normal $79.99 edition is you get 11 premium components:

Astro Repeater
Dupe Delay Pro
Hektor
Indy
Molly
Nifty65
RockRider
Spring '63
Tetraverb
The400
UL7RA

So that is $190 for 11 premium pieces.

I don't understand why something called Ultimate doesn't get you everything. IK Multimedia make the same mistake all the time, and it is really off putting.

Take their Extension pack Volume 1 - it is 2 amps and 2 reverbs. $89.99. That is quite a lot.

If you wanted to buy all of their extension packs currently available, that would be $204 total.

Quite expensive for what you get.

Huh. How strange. I got my info from this page:

Maybe it just needs an update??
 
Right, so my original post was correct?? $269.99 for an additional 11 components?

I think what she's saying is yes you're right but as new components get released , you get them for free with the "Ultimate" edition.. . Or maybe I have no clue what I'm talking about :)

Ah well if so, then that isn't so bad! But I suspect not. :-/

No, the price goes up on Ultimate as they release stuff and if you have a prior purchased 'Ultimate' you don't get the new stuff that wasn't there when you bought it. You get only what was there when you pulled the trigger. So if you want any post purchase stuff you have to buy a pack containing the stuff released after the version of 'Ultimate' that you bought.

I asked about this on another forum because I tend to be sort of a 'completionist/collector' w.r.t gear, etc. So, you're never really "done" w/ genome from a buying new stuff standpoint. IK's stuff is like that, too.

Ok, well I'm 0 for 1 with my guesses today . I wouldn't be the target market on this
