Guitar Tone Stacks
Posted: Sat Sep 02, 2023 8:07 am
Hello everyone! Here are 4 tonestacks: Simple, Marshall, Vox TB (Tone Booster) and Vox as Marshall.
Simple is where I started to create tonestacks.
Marshall: let's face it, I don't know math delta transformations and I'm not a matlab user. That's why from the very beginning I decided to use Flowstone tools, although you can find C++ programs on the net. As a basis I took the TSC in the web calculator from https://www.guitarscience.net/tsc/marshall and started to adjust the coefficients with gradual approximation to the desired characteristic. You can judge how close the obtained characteristics are to those in TSC in the web.
Vox TB: the same was done with Vox Tone Booster.
When I was almost finished, it occurred to me that Vox TB is a variant of Marshall but without the Middle control and this control can be replaced by a numerical value. That's how Vox as Marshall came about. It is up to you to decide which one you prefer. If someone will improve this or present their own variants of TSC, I will be glad if you share it.
