EMU AMP less gain

Dali

Well-known member
I saw a recent thread on Facebook's Freestompbox about the EMU Amp Simulator https://www.facebook.com/groups/108898015804912

And someone asked to have a bit less clipping and people suggested lowering the R1(22k), R31 (330k) or R32(330k) or R13(100k) value.

In PedalPCB schematic, I think it's R12 and R13 for the 330k and R4 for the 100k I'm not sure how to read a schematic yet...

Behringer (image posted here)PedalPCB equivalent
R1 (22k)R5
R31 (330k)R12
R32 (330k)R13
R13 (100k)R4

Can anyone confirm that? Or offer other suggestions?

PedalPCB Schematic is there: https://docs.pedalpcb.com/project/EmuAmpSimulator.pdf

I will simply probably end up adding more sockets than necessary... ;)
 
Until you play it stock, you won't know what, if anything needs changing. There is gain and gain switching in multiple places, so it may take a while to figure out the best place to tweak. Those resistors you socketed may or may not get you there. If you tweak any of the resistors, you have to consider tweaking any associated capacitors or the voicing will change. I'm happy to help. BTW, reducing R1/R5 increases gain.
