The Complete Guitar & Bass Tone Laboratory
Overloud TH-U Premium represents one of the most technologically advanced and versatile guitar amplification suites in modern audio production. By uniting 4th-generation nonlinear component simulation with profile-based rig capturing, TH-U delivers both the reactive dynamics of classic tube circuits and the exact harmonic imprint of professionally tracked real-world rigs.

From sparkling vintage cleans and warm blues break-up to saturated high-gain metal, TH-U provides instant access to official licensed amplifier models from world-renowned manufacturers such as Randall®, DVmark®, Brunetti®, and THD®.

SuperCabinet Dynamics and Unrivaled Mic Placement
Moving beyond standard static impulse responses, the SuperCabinet engine utilizes Fluid Convolution technology. Position up to four microphones in 3D space with continuous distance and off-axis angle adjustments. With zero phase cancellation issues and native support for importing third-party WAV IRs, dialing in studio-grade guitar stems is fast and precise.
