TwoNotes GENOME!!!

[Sascha Franck]

Awesome! I may take you up on that! Can you drop me a DM with your email address please?

Done.

Thanks for getting back to me. It sounds like you are really pushing the amps which is absolutely fine but rather than dime'ing your input gain you could try the V-1 or the Saber Boost? I am also a bit of a classic rock player and I tend to use a little OD on the front end of an amp just to get it where I need it to be - might be worth giving a go on your side too! Let me know if this helps and if you need anything else, I am always here to assist!

Thanks. It was more that I was surprised how much I had to boost these amps one way or another in Genome, in particular the Orange and Marshall flavours which I wouldn't normally find myself boosting on other platforms.

No biggie though

Thanks for getting back to me. That is indeed a little strange - what interface are you using out of interest?

 

[HomespunEffects]

I honestly have no idea what any of this means. You're talking to guitarists. We are dumb.

Yeah. It’s the same vibe as this:

I use a Volt 2, so I set the input gain at +2 as per your instructions. I also just tried using a GT1000 as an interface which has similar specs and it's pretty much the same. With both of those interfaces at that input gain if I load your Foxy amp and set the amp gain to max I get what I'd call an EOB tone with humbuckers. If that's as intended then no worries.

Thanks for getting back to me. This is a little strange as you should be getting breakup without having to crank the amp or the input. Could I ask that you raise a support ticket at Support.Two-notes.com - once submitted, if you can let me know the ticket ID, I can have this fast tracked for you.

Hi Guys,

I hope all is well. Today we have just launched the latest version of GENOME - Version 1.8 including a raft of new components and workflow enhancements. If you are a Two notes hardware user you are entitled to a free version of GENOME - redemption of which can be found here: https://www.two-notes.com/en/grab-your-complimentary-copy-of-genome-today/

In terms of details on the new update, please head here: https://www.two-notes.com/en/news/genome-1-8-drops-high-gain-power-meets-next-level-pitch-fx/

As ever, if you have any questions concerning this, please dont hesitate to let me know!

 

[Desertdweller]

Yeah. It’s the same vibe as this:

Fun fact, Sans ICS Security did come out with an updated model, the HyperEncabulator, which had a semi-stricter multi-chordal operation allowing for even less side-fumbling encapsulation proclivity. I mean, remember how bad these things worked in the days of hyper-swaying transenmedical psychal-encapsulation? They hired the same smooth-talking technical salesperson to announce it too:

@Ross Davies I think the PitchMix is bugged:

- if you run that module in the signal chain alone, Mix @ 100%, Pitch at -2 and tracking set to "Accurate Pitch", there's a weird Chorus / Reverb thing going on; I can confirm I have nothing else engaged in my signal chain

The new amps though are pretty darn good though. That Diabolous & Snakebite50 really get the juices flowing. The Rampage is an absolute gain monster. The Samhain, while not as aggressive as the rest, feels great for some more classic stuff.

Nice work!

I don’t know if they ever will but I would love to see a hardware version of this stuff
They are building up a good amp list

I had to get the XTC because I simply love how that amp turned out and their Badlander model is very close to my real 100W unit; theirs has slightly less high-end but it could be down to the load they used during profiling / reamping (their TSM-AI amps seem to be NAM-based parametric models).

Thanks for getting back to me on this. I have sent this over to our team now and will report back ASAP!

Thanks for getting in touch here. It is super cool to hear you are interested in a hardware version and I would love to collate some user feedback / ideas if you have any suggestions for what you would like to see! Please send them over!

So pleased to hear you are enjoying our TSM-Ai models; there is a combination of parametric captures and electrical modelling used to create our TSM-Ai amps and we're pretty stoked with the results since we first released the series. In terms of the high-end you are reffering to, have you checked out our guide on configuring your input level for GENOME? This might help but again, it could be indicative of the loads we use to capture the amps here at TNHQ.

Thanks for the clarification. I'm pretty sure it might be the load used to model the poweramp's response.
It's great to see Two Notes decided to publish that article - I know there was some initial skepticism about this topic but in the long run, it only helps enhance end-user experience.

Are you using load boxes to capture power amp models, or are you using real cabs? It would be great to see different loads modelled, especially for commonly used poweramp designs. That would be ideal to combine with IR’s that match the load used for the amp modelling so it’s more of a “complete” system.

Guillaume confirmed they use a proprietary, non-commercially available reactive load for this stuff (was in the thread at TOP) when we had that conversation leading up to the Genome input calibration value being published.

Makes sense. Hopefully they can shift towards real cab loads, amp+load box is easier for anyone to do and is somewhat of a compromise in itself. Often it suits an amp to use its matching cabinet (or something it’s commonly used with, using the same load box can skew the results where sometimes it’ll be a reasonable fit, and other times not. I don’t know for sure, but I imagine this is why Amplitube and Nembrini can be so hit and miss.

Odd thing is not even NDSP makes use of a real cab load during the reamping / sampling. Rabea showed off a loadbox they sent him for the SLO video.
The only ones which use a real cab load, that I know off, for parametric NAM models are @ArteraDSP.
