Hmm - I really don't think it would be too hard from an electronics perspective - the only part I don;t have an answer for yet is replacement of a potentiometer with a device or circuit that can vary its resistance based on a digital signal. One possibility would be a Light Dependant resistor and an LED with varying mark space ratio, but there has to be a better way, I'll do some research. The key point is that the control electronice mustnt interact with the tube circuit in any way at all ... I could even build it so it could be added to existing amplifiers I think. Ok, its a long term project but I think it is a good idea - love the idea of switching FX and amp voicing all at the same time - could be really cool! Apologies Muris - don't want to side track the issue or babble on on your sub-forum. But (always a but )... Andrew long time since I did electronics but what about using a more simple DA convert before the potentiometers rather than an LDr/LED array? Just a thought - and probably wrong - electronics isn't a strong point of mine (or as my wife would say 'have you any strong points Tony?' ). Cheers, Tony ps also, quite a few tube amps with midi - H and K and Engl amps spring to mind plus the new Marshall... -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.
