Overloud Releases TH1 - The Commercial SimulAnalog

November 14, 2008 – 9:03 pm by Jonathan Grand

Numerous musicians and engineers fell in love with the SimulAnalog project - an old freeware VST plug-in suite, created to explore electronic circuit emulation, that actually sounded great, even when compared to the top commercial offers in digital guitar amp emulation.

There is still no press release, but today SimulAnalog e-mail subscribers received news about a new effort by the creators of SimulAnalog, using a development of that same technology - Overloud TH1. It’s an Amplitube 2-like software available for Mac and PC in Standalone, RTAS, VST and AU.

From the e-mail: “While trying to achieve improvements to the technology behind the Simulanalog project, I quickly realized that the effort required could have never be productive without making this my main occupation.
For this reason, a couple of years ago, I joined some smart friends to create Overloud. Our focus was to work on the advancements of emulation technology and on building the most advanced, simple and musician-oriented interface we could think of.

During all this time I have been tirelessly improving the Simulanalog modeling and developing new technologies and lots of new models. While I was busy with all of this number-crunching, my colleagues have been brain-storming and testing lots of concepts in order to achieve the best possible User Interface and nicest looking GUI. Now, after two years of relentless research and tireless development, we are finally releasing Overloud TH1: part of TH1 are great improvements to the Simulanalog Guitar Suite, the long-awaited Vintage Suite and much, much more! We sincerely believe that TH1 is currently the most advanced product in his field in terms of technology and user-oriented solutions.
I warmly invite you to download our fully-functional 14-day demo and test the advancements yourself. Of course, all this effort comes at a price and we made our best effort to keep the product pricing as reachable as possible while giving us the chance to develop our ground-breaking modeling technology and to grow as a fit, technology-based company.
