YAMAHA - THR5A - ACOUSTIc

A New Way to Experience your Electric-Acoustic Guitar

THR5A is optimized for use with electric-acoustic and Silent Guitars. Utilising advanced modeling technologies developed by Yamaha, THR5A offers simulations of classic tube condenser and dynamic mics combined with studio-grade effects to create recording-studio tone direct from your guitar and wherever you are.

Features


VCM AMP MODELS
Developed by a team of guitarists in search of the ultimate tone, THR delivers the sound that you want and the feeling that you need. Effects that enhance and complement your playing combine with room-filling reverbs and delays to push your playing to new levels. And thanks to THR's unique design and focus, stadium-filling volume isn't a pre-requisite - everything about this amp is designed to fit the way you play, right down to the need to keep it quiet sometimes. With tone and feel like this, you'll appreciate the ability to keep playing all night…

THR5A offers four acoustic mic simulations and one clean amp modeling for electric guitar.




CONDENSER
Electro-acoustic optimized input with mic simulations for natural, clear tone.

DYNAMIC
The dynamic microphone setting gives the acoustic guitar a tight tonal core.

TUBE
Electric-acoustic optimized input with mic simulations for natural, clear tone.

NYLON
Perfect for use with an acousticelectric classical or nylon string guitar.

EG CLN
Classic American clean tube amp – low gain preamp, 6L6 power section and 12-inch speaker with clear, late breakup

VCM EFFECTS
Most of THR's effects feature VCM effects processors. Based on the technology used in Yamaha's professional audio mixers, VCM effects give unsurpassed realism and quality.

VCM (Virtual Circuitry Modeling)




VCM effects are capable of capturing subtleties that simple digital simulations cannot even approach, going beyond simple simulation and delivering the truly musical performance that makes classic analog gear invaluable even in today's digital production environment.

YAMAHA Hi-Fi Audio Technology




THR was developed with Yamaha's award-winning AV division to offer true hi-fi stereo sound and a new experience in guitar amplifiers. The exclusive, specially designed speaker enclosure is optimised to handle both guitar and stereo playback sounds making THR uniquely capable of giving you amazing tone for both your guitar and your track from a compact, portable amp.

New Extended Stereo Technology




THR incorporates Yamaha's new Extended Stereo Technology to create an incredibly wide, spacious audio image. Stereo tracks and studio quality reverb take on a depth unimaginable from such a small enclosure.
