The first of my tube amp emulators is finished !
Principle's quite sound. Taking the actual schematic of the tube amp to be simulated, replacing those with FET transistors, which have roughly the same characteristics as tubes, adjusting some values and presto ! Using the same principle, many amps can be modelled, even Matchless and Dumbles !
I'll play around more with this baby then post soundclips. I do recall the JCM 800 to have a darker sound than what this is cranking up, but it can be compensated for by tweaking the mid pot. I'm waiting for a shipment of higher gain (and reportedly darker sounding) FET's though to see what difference in sound it makes.
It does approximate the sound though. Even the dynamics are feather touch, although not as responsive as a real deal tube amp. It also gives that "octaving" effect when driven, and that "quack-quack" sound.
Buraot lang i-bias. Pinahirapan ako ng hayup na to bago ko napatunog ng maayos.
