Hi Everyone,
I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I wanted to share a schematic I drew of the MTI Tubes pedal. Honestly, I don't think it sounds particularly great, but it's an interesting idea to place an entire amplifier topology inside a stomp box. Hope you find it at least somewhat interesting.

Re: MTI Tubes
Well the good thing is a tube stomp box is that it does away with the impeadence mismatch that 98 % of them ( stomp boxes ) on the planet have!
That is to say that guitars without active pickups are a high impeadence low voltage output device, and so is the input to a amp, the output of a stomp box is a low impeadence high output device and as such screws with your guitars sound.
To me that schematic/ stomp box needs more then just the 47 uf filter on its first node since the output section is single ended.

Re: MTI Tubes
I hadn’t considered the impedance issue- thank you. Would be interesting to try this concept with a classic tube, such as an el84 or 6v6.
