THERMAL breaks ground with a multi-stage engine that goes far beyond what multi-band distortions traditionally accomplish, inviting experimentation and inspiring creativity. The XY control provides an easy interface to enhance harmonics by tapping into its layered engines, each with analog and digital distortion algorithms, effects, modulation, and imaging.

How does Rent-to-Own work?
Try Thermal free for 3 days, then pay for it in 15 monthly payments. Once you've paid it off, you'll redeem a lifetime license and the plugin is yours forever. You can also pay off your remaining balance at any time to own it sooner.
Is this the full version of Thermal?

Is there any interest or extra charge?
There's no interest, extra charge, or hidden fee associated with the Rent-to-Own model. You will pay roughly the same amount through Rent-to-Own as you would if you were to buy Thermal directly from Output at a non-discounted price.
