Software Description
Trash is a 64-bit spice rack of distortion. For guitarists recording direct, Trash provides over 85 box, cabinet and speaker models -- ranging from standard amp classics to stacks to experimental designs. Combined with 45 overdrive and distortion models -- 12AX7 tubes, 6L6 tubes, transistors, fuzz, rectifiers, and more -- you can make Trash sound as good, bad, real or unreal as you want.
Trash goes beyond a typical "guitar amp simulator" effect, though. With multiband distortion, sweeping filters and emulations of classic delays it can be effectively applied to bass, vocals, drums as well.
Features
- 48 distortion types ranging from tube overdrive to the fuzz of germanium transistors. Chain pairs of distortions together for sonic destruction at 64-bit precision, or split the signal into multiple bands and apply distortion independently to individual frequencies.
- Realistic modeling of 85 amp cabinets and speakers. Classics, combos, boutique models, stacks... a tone and character for any occasion.
- 36 filters that can be LFO or envelope triggered through a unique graphical display. Synth filters, resonant filters, classic analog filters and more.
- Multiband dynamics and gating to control the peaks and tame the noise.
- Trash the echo with a selection of classic lo-fi delays. Tape delay with saturation and nonlinear tape machine artifacts, tape-tube delay with added tube saturation modeling, classic analog delay with analog degradation and Lo-fi digital delay with quantization noise and aliasing.
- History and Undo features, dedicated preset manager with dozens of drum, guitar and bass presets, spectrum and level meters, and DirectX automation.
New in v1.14
- Added support for Unicode characters in the name of the preset folder.



Impressive
After using a similar program (ReValver), I must say this program is pretty impressive.
The included presets (there are more on their site) are reasonably close to what their intended purpose is, and the sound quality is very good.
Depending on input levels, you might have to adjust compression/gate thresholds on some presets to eliminate noise/artifacts, but no big deal.
It can eat a lot of CPU, but there are options to make it less CPU intensive. I'd suggest turning off the real-time waveform thingy and the animated meters if you want to play real-time.
It's not perfect, but if you want to play with a wide variety of tones, this won't disappoint. If you want perfection, then buy the pedals/amps that suit your taste.
Overall, it's a great product.
