I tried the free THU given recently. I think it competes with the other big amp sims.
What I find a little regrettable is they all :
- use the skeuomorphic approach, eg lots of screen space used to make it look like the hardware
- very little use of modern digital tools, from meters to LFOs etc..
- limit the product to guitar + bass, whereas for example I found BIAS FX2 makes an excellent multi-fx plugin for anything from keys, drums, even vocals
With about 25 years using DAWs and having tried thousands of plugins, I find there is still much room for progress particularly with guitar amp sims.
So far the approach still seems a bit stuck in the classic hardware framework.
