What THR Remote is for
THR Remote is a companion editor for Yamaha's THR-II guitar amplifiers. It runs on a phone or tablet and connects to the amp over Bluetooth, so the sound can be changed without reaching for the amp's own controls.
The listing points it at THR-II owners who want to shape their guitar tone wirelessly. It is most directly relevant to players who already own a THR-II, since the app's controls are built around that amp's effects and settings.
Changing amp tones from a mobile device
The THR-II has single-knob controls for its modulation, echo and reverb effects. THR Remote opens those effects up so each one can be adjusted through several parameters, which the developer describes as fine tuning.
Compressor and noise gate settings are also available in the app. Both are dynamics controls, so they shape how the signal behaves rather than the effect character itself.
Hands-free switching with a Bluetooth footswitch
THR Remote can be paired with a compatible third-party Bluetooth footswitch. The listing presents this as a way to control the amp without a cable and without using your hands.
The footswitch is an optional accessory and is not made by Yamaha. Which models work depends on the compatibility list the developer publishes, not on anything in the app's description.
EQ, output levels and battery status
The advanced settings include an EQ that applies to music playback, so backing tracks or songs played through the amp can be tonally adjusted separately from the guitar sound.
The app also lets you set the line out and USB out levels, and check the amp's battery charge level. The listing mentions further settings beyond these, but names only these three.
