Re: What The Hell Is Diode Clipping????
Shawn fate ..... great overview of diode clipping 101 , i mod various pedals
on the side mostly just for fun , i have changed the clipping diodes in a few
marshalls , and it makes a big difference , this is a simple mod that costs
very little that gets great result . the break point of the 1n34a germainium
makes it the warmest sounding diode ,but takes away a small amount of
gian , but by adding 2 or 3 in series the gain reapears and sounds killer .
i have also tried mixing all types of diodes for various sounds , the clipping
path can be alterd also with small value caps across the diodes . these are
just some of the tricks that amp mod guys use to make your marshall come
alive . and again great info about clipping -SHAWN FATE
