TwoNotes GENOME!!!

[Sascha Franck]

Most likely many folks will have noticed already, but there's been a pretty large update to Genome today, version 1.6.

I've been using Genome a lot along with Slammin Mofo's and Amalgam Audio NAM captures, but to be honest even the stock Genome captures sound great to me. Loads of Marshall and Rectifier sounds.

I'm curious to see if they added more DAW automation options along with MIDI and the standalone app.

Thanks for the heads-up

Man, if TN ever drops a Genome hardware box, they could absolutely clean up. It could be a contender right out of the gate if they were to do it right.

Yup, I'd be right in there for the NAM player, let alone the cabs, component models & other stuff!

 

[Senor Blues]

That would kill. The new DynIR's and Amps are a nice add today.

 

[Sascha Franck]

Still zero improvements on their NAM capture organization.

 

[Sascha Franck]

Fwiw, their new Calibro amp is pretty nice I think.

Do you have to sync the new content after downloading the update then downloading the new preset content/library? If so I dont see a choice to initiate anything.
I ended up with two icons on desktop, one is the replacement for the previous version, named Genome and the other is "Genome v1.6 Factory RIG Library". clicking either seems to open the same thing...

Try dragging the RIG Library file into the standalone version.

Are people happy setting their input gain where TN recommends? I'm using a Volt AI so should set the input to +2db according to this:

https://helpdesk.two-notes.com/portal/en/kb/articles/calibrating-genome-s-input-your-audio-interface#Getting_a_Calibrated_Input_Signal_Level_Easily

but the Albion and Foxy amps sound a bit anemic to me like that, I was adding something like 8 to 10db when I was doing it by ear (which I'm obviously free to continue doing)

 

[Sascha Franck]

Re: input levels. I only adjusted things by ear so far and will keep doing so. The only thing where I care about it is Helix Native, simply because I also own the hardware (which, in return, made it extremely easy to adjust my interface's inputs and DAW's gain plugins).

Thanks, I tried it and it opens Genome but I don’t notice anything different. No indication anything was opened or loaded etc.
The icon for the Rig Library is still on the desktop and highlighting it shows a description that includes “Availability Status: Sync Pending”

I don’t see any means of initiating a ‘sync’.
I’m on Windows and have been using the beta versions since before the release but had since updated after a release candidate was made public. Maybe I already had the rig library update? I don’t know what feature/s to look for to determine that though.

Ahh, ok, those components I have. I was thinking there was some ‘prefabricated rig presets’ that needed to be installed separately, because of this:

• A New Factory RIG Bank featuring GENOME’s updated Stock Component Arsenal is available
  • Please note: for existing GENOME License Holders, GENOME’s RIG library will not automatically update; for users with active GENOME Licenses prior to the release of GENOME v1.6, please download the updated Factory RIG Bank here. For new GENOME License holders post the v1.6 release, GENOME’s RIG arsenal will automatically default to the New Factory RIG Bank.

Fwiw, got the library thing sorted, simply imported the file into bank D.

 

[Enchilada Jones]

This is as far as I can get trying to import from the downloaded rig library into bank D. Nothing happens.

You gotta use the menu from inside Genome and then navigate to where you downloaded the .tnb file to and select it.

That is what I am doing. By selecting import from where you are showing in Bank D I get the window I showed you. What do you see when you hit the import button? what choices/ location does it offer you?

EDIT to add:
I got it. apparently microsoft One drive was holding my files due to not syncing. New laptop, never asked for, or used, One Drive. It said I had used .05 percent of 5 Gig of my 'free' space yet it was 'full'

Shut off one drive, redownloaded the file and it let me use my own computer. 'Thanks for the generous offer Mr Gates...now piss off please you and microsoft!!!'

Anyway, Thank You Sascha for helping!

 

[Sascha Franck]

Yeah, One Drive is a f***ing intrusive piece of BS. Also preinstalled and halfway preconfigured on most Samsung devices. Sucks.
