Description

Books about guitar amplifier electronics usually focus on individual circuits: the preamp, tone stack, phase inverter, power amp, and power supply. The design of a guitar amplifier as a complete system, however, is more than the natural consequence of putting these components together. Fundamentals of Guitar Amplifier System Design presents a structured, professional methodology for crafting a complete guitar amplifier, including 1. deciding which features to include, 2. defining system performance in terms of guitar and effects signal levels and control positions, 3. optimizing the distribution of gain and attenuation with a strategy for cascading gain, 4. laying out the complete architecture, including the effects loop, 5. developing a system-level audio model, 6. designing individual stages to match the model, 7. voicing the amp from a system-level perspective to improve overdrive dynamics, 8. optimizing power supply filtering for hum suppression and inter-stage decoupling, and 9. executing a post-design checklist to identify mistakes. It has been said that the process of guitar amplifier design is like a cooking recipe, like flavors that you are mixing. This book is about mixing these flavors to achieve rewarding sonic results.
