THR5A : Brilliant little home amp and recording tool
6 years ago
Amp sounds great, period. If you have a dull sounding rehearsal room, living room or bedroom, this will save your electro-acoustic day. Great mic models, great reverbs, very acceptable chorus and compressor effects.
As a recording tool this works great as a first step, laying down acoustic tracks. Be careful with latency though.
Two drawbacks:
- USB computer volume (while recording) can only be set via the PC interface software.
- there are no presets. When you use this amp with multiple guitars, you might want those...
I have a THR10C too, which does have presets and a USB volume control.
