ZAMP is the world’s first analog tube amplifier emulation built into a small pedal format – true tube amp tone without the glass, high voltage and $10,000 vintage price tag.It is not a glorified overdrive - distortion pedal shunting an op-amp with diodes or with FETs trying to be an amplifier. ZAMP contains real analog circuits emulating two12AX7 preamp tubes, one 12AX7 Cathodyne driver and two 6V6 output tubes.

and

All overload is based on infinite logarithmic limits that produce low order harmonics as tubes do. The ZAMP never “clips” and for that matter vintage guitar tubes don’t either. This would involve levels of negative feedback not found in such amplifiers.


Do I want this pedal? I'm not sure yet.

Do I want to see the schematic so that I can decipher the marketing BS? Absolutely.

Stage 4 is an electronically logarithmic volume control that drives the stages that follow while giving a linear feel to the control from the user’s perspective. This stage also has the property of lowering the noise along with the audio level as opposed to passive volume controls that have a signal to noise ratio that degrades as the volume is lowered.
Good lord.
