Heavy Rhythm
Original Heavy	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC
Nice Rat	A mellow emulation of a ProCo Rat. Sort of Posies meets Blur sound - both ProCo Rat users in the 80s.
Bad Rat	The better known ProCo Rat sound. We used hard diode clipping to create that rough "lots of harmonics" crunch. Nothing soft or smooshy about this one.
Transistor	Tubes are all well and good, but we used transistor saturation for this one to give that buzzy-reedlike Dimebag Darrell sound.
Orange Box	The Boss DS-1 is that little orange box that's been used by everyone from Kurt Cobain to Steve Vai.
Heavy Pi	An Electroharmonix Muff Pi emulation is all we need to turn our little riff into a trashy Smashing Pumpkins sort of sound.
Metal Zone	The Boss Metal Zone pedal was quite possibly responsible for the great Spandex shortage of 1987. Rather than fight history, Trash embraces it with the dual stage clipping that gives it that recognized sound.
Piano Cab	Trash has all the components you need to emulate the gear we know and love. But the real power is the ability to create your own Trash. For this one, we used multiband clipping, into tube saturation, into an amp that's mounted inside a piano cabinet.
Cough	Extreme compression and gating, a vocal formant filter, two stages of multiband distortion and amp in a strange box. Sure, Trash can model that.
Multiband Fuzz	A classic fuzz model with a new multiband twist.
Country
Original Country	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC
Classic Country	Yee haw! 12AX7 preamp tube into an EL34 power tube driving a standard issue Fender amp model. How else are you going to make one? A little bit of an edge without being too dirty.
Miller	Something closer to a Steve Miller sort of sound. Is that necessary? Maybe not, but we like his Greatest Hits album in a guilty sort of way.
Country Crunch	We've heard that it's illegal to play through British tubes in some roadhouse bars, but we couldn't resist trying our Fender guitar riff through EL34 (Marshall) power tubes into a Marshall cabinet.
Surf
Original Surf	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC. Surf's up.
Oldie Surf	Tremolo, an old amp and just a little distortion and we're ready to sit in for the soundtrack for Pulp Fiction II.
Classic Surf	A little less lo-fi and a little less grit. Just a touch of tape saturation to keep it real.
Scratch Surf	There's only so much you can do with a surf sound. So we ran our riff through an envelope triggered analog synth filter, sent that through a "Fuzzface" style fuzz-rectifier model, and played it through a model of a speaker. That was mounted in a snare drum. Because we could.
Leads
Original Lead 1	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC. Kind of, well, you know who.
Hendrix Lead 1	An Octavia for that "octave up" sound into a germanium transistor fuzz box model into a Marshall with some Echoplex tape delay. OK, we had some extra strings ringing on that riff, but it's our humble tribute to one of the forefathers of trash.
Original Lead 2	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC. It's hammer time.
EVH Lead 2	Midrange boosted, serious power tube saturation, Marshall amp emulation, and again that Echoplex tape delay modeling.
Original Lead 3	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC. Simple, but many possibilities.
MXR Lead 3	MXR made a great little pedal called the MXR Distortion+ used by everyone from Randy Rhoads to Husker Dü. We used germanium transistor models to capture the sound of that pedal for this example.
Wah Lead 3	Trash has 36 filter types that can all be swept or triggered. So yes, you can do wah pedal effects. We sent the wah pedal emulation into a fuzz, into a triode tube and finally into a Vox amp model.
Sustain Lead 3	OK, Carlos doesn't need compressors. But for the rest of us, Trash provides multiband dynamics processing to give you that extra sustain. After the dynamics, this one goes into a straight Marshall amp/cabinet emulation with a little tape delay modeling at the end.
Microsynth Lead 3	In the 80s ElectroHarmonx put out the Microsynth - a strange box that gave guitarists synth-like tones. We've paid tribute to the original guitar synth with this emulation - a swept LFO into a wave rectifier into a smooth fuzz circuit. Yes, it sounds strange. It's supposed to.
Reggae
Reggae Original	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC. Jamaican me crazy.
Reggae Happy	From cruise ships to beach bars, a clean amp model with a touch of analog delay to keep them jammin.
Reggae Filters	A different type of wah-filter gives it a fun little bounce.
Reggae Bosstones	As Bostonians, we can't help but love the Mighty Mighty Bosstones. A little tube saturation and a different amp model and we've got something. Or that's the impression that we get...
Reggae Clash	Sometimes punk and reggae come together in beautiful ways. Our respects to the Clash.
Oldies & Blues
Oldie Original	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC.
Oldie Cochran	Trash...the cure when there ain't no cure.
Blues Original	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC.
Blues Clean	Jimi plays nice.
Blues Fuzz	Jimi steps on a pedal.
Blues Stevie	SRV carries on.
Rock
Rockabilly Original	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC.
Rockabilly Bright	Slapback tape delay, a little tube saturation and an old amp. What more could you want?
Rockabilly Lead	Maybe some tape saturation instead and a different amp. With 85 amps and 48 distortion models you really can't go wrong.
Rock 'n' Roll Original	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC.
Rock 'n' Roll Clean	We couldn't help but use this classic riff to demonstrate the many flavors of Trash. First up, a simple, clean amplified rendition.
Rock 'n' Roll Dirty	Adding a little tube overdrive for a little edge.
Rock 'n' Roll Cavern	Retro lo-fi version through an old amp for those of us who couldn't actually be there in the Cavern Club for the early years.
Rock 'n' Roll Poison	Whether you're doing an 80s cover of a 50s song or just paying tribute to the Poison masterpiece "Talk Dirty to Me", Trash is there for you.
Catchy Original	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC.
Catchy Rock	Power tube crunch and the right amp model gives it a Joe Perry-Aerosmith sort of feel
Catchy Phase	Using LFO filters to create a phasey sound, combined with a clean amp and a little saturation.
Catchy Mutron	Envelope triggered Mutron filters with a little fuzz.
Bar Original	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC.
Bar Maestro	Run through a model of a Maestro Fuzz pedal - a pedal used by Robby Krieger of the Doors. Sort of like a Fuzzface but with a little more crunch.
Bar Queen	A Brian May sort of sound, with two stages of distortion and a "parked" wah pedal all going into a VOX AC-30 amp model.
Bar Clean	It's easy to make amp simulators sound either clean or sound really distorted. Trash also loves the in-betweens - realistic, dynamic saturation and crunch.
Bar Angus	Ah. That's the sound this riff wanted. Nothing fancy to get in the way- no reverbs, choruses, delays, etc. Just straight forward power tube crunch. This one's for you, Angus.
Slide
Slide Original	The unprocessed riff, recorded direct into the PC.
Slide Classic	Simple and sexy. A Fender amp just barely distorting.
Slide Colorsound	Slide ain't just for country, though. For this we've used dual stage distortion to model the Colorsound Tonebender effect used by Page and Beck to name a few.
Slide Fuzz	Instead of overdrive, we put some smooth fuzz on this one so you just get a little distortion on the highs. Great on everything from drums to Rhodes to, well, slide guitar.
