A sound designer’s best friend
THERMAL makes it easy to experiment and dial in new distortion sounds. A user-friendly experience is key to controlling the deeply powerful, multi-stage engine.
Distortion & effects
Choose from 19 analog and digitally modeled distortion algorithms. Add harmonics and grit, shape amplitude, and frequency modulation.
Width & tone
Add a final touch to each stage by adding Mid Side and time-based width, then shape highs and lows using the Tone panel.
Waveform display
Hone in on a specific frequency range by dragging the handles on the waveform and adjusting the volume using the slider. Turn band split on to activate the crossover filters.
