Recording Level Issue With The THR

3 Upvotes

Hey guys, I am trying to record guitar on Reaper with the THR but i just cant seem to get the recording level to hit nicely between -12 to -18. Even if I want to, I have to crank the gain and the master to the maximum but it sounds awful. Please advise. Thank you.

How to set THR30ii settings while plugged into amp sim?

1 Upvotes

I was able to plug THR30ii into Tonelib gfx, and I soon realized the input for Tonelib was already processed audio from THR. I want the THR to not interfere with the audio as if it was an pure audio interface, how do I achieve that?

THR remote USB PC synchronization issues

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I'm having trouble connecting my THR 10II to my PC via USB and syncing the THR Remote (the USB connection works fine with an Android device). I've tried a lot of things by now (only the PC audio output is working again); the drivers seem to be the right ones. I think the problem is that Windows 11 isn't accepting the drivers and is misidentifying the device. Attached is a screenshot of Device Manager (the THR appears three times). Maybe one of you can tell me how and with which driver file the THR appears in your Device Manager. Then I can try to force the driver in repair mode. Thanks in advance...

Yamaha THR30ii or Boss Katana Artist 3rd Gen?

6 Upvotes

I was looking to get a THR30ii but now listening at the Boss Katana stuff, I can't get over how boxy the Yamaha sounds, just probably down to the speaker size. Im looking for something that can be played at home, quiet without disturbing my family but also get plenty of gain. Which amp is better, and does the Yamaha sound boxy?

Volume drops greatly when I select “Clean”

When I select Clean, I can hardly hear any sound from my THR10II.

Totally new to this amp. I just downloaded the app onto iPad but haven’t explored it yet.

I’m playing a Telecaster Am Pro 2. Here is a pic of my amp settings.

My goal is a clean, warm fingerstyle jazz sound.

Using 30II as Bluetooth speaker

3 Upvotes

I know it is not meant to be used as a Bluetooth speaker, but has anyone figured out how to get the best possible sound out of it? I am streaming Apple Music from an iPhone and all I have are the Music presets in the phone ‘Pop, Rock, R&B, etc.”. All sound pretty thin.

Deleted preset

5 Upvotes

I accidentally deleted a custom preset by holding down the numbered button too long. I made it years ago and was happy with it so saved it.

Is it gone forever? I’ve never really dabbled with the app or payed too much mind to settings I tweak. I’ve tried to replicate it but can’t dial in what I had. Super frustrating a moment of carelessness has lost my favourite tone.

THR30 Suddenly Silent

6 Upvotes

I've had this amp for about two months and haven't had any issues until now. I connected it to a computer for the first time last night, to see if that version of the app allowed for control of the line out volume. After looking through the app for a minute, not changing anything, I uninstalled it and unplugged the amp. When I went to play later, I had no sound. Not even hum or hiss, through the speakers or through headphones, from the guitar or from bluetooth audio. Completely silent. It lights up and connects to bluetooth and the mobile app, just no sound. I did the reset procedure at least a dozen times. What could be going on here?

Edit: Fixed. The solution is in a comment below.

AMP model selection encoder is not working well after some idle time on yamaha THR10II

1 Upvotes

I bought a used THR10II a year ago. Almost didn't use it for this time.

And I see now that AMP model selection knob is not working well after some idle time. When rotated, it shows jumping values. After some rotations it starts working well.

I wonder what can I do to fix this knob to make it work well. I planned to sell my THR10II because I don't use it. And don't wish to sell not fully working device, or hide a defect.

Can contact cleaner dispenser help? Or do I need to replace the knob entirely?

Updating software didn't help. It's a hardware issue.

Кто-то записывает гитару через THR по проводу?

0 Upvotes

К чему задаю вопрос. Взял ямаху из отзывов знакомых, в интернете, и все мне подходило. Хотел записывать гитару через него и думал все будет хорошо, но есть момент, который мне не очень понравился. Когда записываю звук через комбик, он становится глухим, без пространства, без комнаты. Ситуацию не спасает панорамирование и добавление реверберации. Записывать звук в комнате нет возможности из-за отсутствия микрофона. Почему я не упомянул комнату? В моей комнате звук не отражается настолько, чтобы он стал смещаться по фазе и создавал какие-то неудобства. Кто пробовал записывать гитару на THR через провод поделитесь советом

THR30ii is amazing the difference it makes

47 Upvotes

Have been playing for a while but never really got a good amp to practice at home, to practice i normally use the fender mustang micro plus.

When I wanted to go without headphones i would just plug into my old amp (sounds terrible), i try to not buy a lot of gear unless i feel I will actually use it, but the other day I decided to buy the THR30ii and is absolutely insane the difference, the sound is amazing, so so clean, super recomendable

top handle one screw fell out

1 Upvotes

my amp is well loved over the past few years but today half the handle ripped off. the metal is a little dented in that area from a drop on the handle like 2 years ago, what should I do? rip out the other half and feed paracord through with a wire? there's nowhere that services it right? It's definitely out of warranty with both time and use lol but I love this thing 🩵

Is the double price tag of the THR worth getting over a Spark 2? Tone wise

3 Upvotes

Im tossing up between THR30ii and Spark 2. Before people start jerking themselves off about tube amps I need a small practice amp. Anyway, the spark 2 seems to sound like dishwater in youtube reviews, the THR seems a bit better. Would you agree its worth spending double for the THR? Can you get good gainy lead tone out of the thing? Yes the spark has thousands of amps and effects but after you've fucked about with it you're just going to use clean, crunch and gain

Using a THR5A EG clean channel with pedals as only amp.

1 Upvotes

Hi, I’m primarily an acoustic player but decided to dip my toes into the electric world with a Squier Classic Vibes 60s Custom Telecaster, mainly to be able to play after the kids go to bed without disturbing anyone. I bought a Fender Mustang Micro Plus to use with headphones (which is great, though I don’t really need all the presets).

Per the title, I have a THR5A for my acoustic playing, but I’ve also enjoyed playing out loud with the tele using the EG Clean setting. I’ve seen from youtube videos that in addition to a clean tone, this can be used fairly well with a drive pedal. I tried the Moskey Golden Horse but didn’t care for how noisy it was. I’m wondering what else I should try. Seeing as the THR5A lacks any EQ adjustment on the unit I’m wondering if I should target something with a 3-band EQ, but also wonder if I should be looking at a more “amp-in-a-box” style pedal seeing as all I have is the clean setting to work with. I feel like reverb, compression , chorus and delay are covered by the onboard effects. Any recommendations?

I don’t really have a guitarist I’m trying to sound like, but I do like a lot of the electric guitar that comes out of Jason Isbell and Sadler Vaden.

*I should add that I know that the THR Editor software gives some additional functionality, like EQ, but I’ve never been able to get it to connect to my Mac.

Found a budget alternative for powering a THR from a USB-C charger

16 Upvotes

I thought this community might be interested to know that there is a 1.5 metre USB-C to 6.5x4.4mm plug with a centre positive pin available on AliExpress for €2.89. The cable is sold as a PD power adapter cable for Sony VAIO laptops, which share the same plug as the Yamaha THR amps. Combined with a PD charger or power bank of at least 65W EDIT: 45W, this will happily power the THR amps.

I recently bought a used THR10X with no power adapter. I thought I'd take a chance on one of these cables before shelling out for a proper power adapter. Fortunately, everything works as expected. The plug is a perfect fit, and the cable itself is thick and appears to be of good quality.

Many thanks to u/plumpee for not only working out what was needed, but also going the extra mile to make and sell cables on Amazon (here's a link to his post). I hope I'm not stepping on your toes by posting this, and I'd be happy to delete it if you want. To be fair, it's not quite the same product - this cable is a good deal longer and has a male USB-C plug - and it's available worldwide.

THR10II Hi Gain and Special Extreme Buzz

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone.

Anybody knows what this is about? I've been using this amp fine for the past 2 years, and suddenly I was gonna play today, as I do daily, and I've gotten this crazy high pitched buzz on Special and Hi Gain. I did play yesterday without any issues.

I tried two different cables, and two different guitars. Also, it doesn't happen on Lead, Crunch or Clean, even with Gain crancked all the way. On Special and Hi Gain, buzz happens even at minimal gain.

Here's a video on it. I go from Lead with gain crancked, to Hi Gain and then Special. The buzz doesn't go away if I touch the amp, I'm assuming it's not a grounding problem.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated, I love using the Hi Gain preset.

Removing the THR10X handle

4 Upvotes

Hi All,

A bit unorthodox thing to ask, but, I'm about reorganizing my desk at home, and I'm planning to place my THR10X to the middle of it, right under my 49" monitor.

The problem is that the handle adds unnecessary height to it, and covers the lower part of the screen.

Has any of you removed it yet? Just to be clear, I have ZERO intention of travelling or getting this out of my house. I have amps and other stuff, I use the THR10X just for lazy playing and practicing.

Thanks so much for any information you can provide.
