Designing Your Overdrive/Distortion Pedal: Part 3 - Waveshaping
In this video, I introduce various types of saturation and demonstrate how understanding signal representation in the frequency domain can help you understand the musical behavior of the circuit. I also discuss how to visualize distortion and waveshaping and present sound samples for different schematic modifications.

Designing Your Overdrive/Distortion Pedal: Part 2 - RC filters.
มุมมอง 4.8Kปีที่แล้ว
In this video, you will learn how to design a simple signal filter. I will demonstrate how this filter can be applied to a distortion pedal schematic. We will tune the scheme from a previous video and observe how these changes affect the final sound. 00:00 Agenda. 00:20 Why timbre is important. 00:58 Introduction to filters. 05:01 Experiment with RC circuit. 06:00 Reactance. 08:00 Derivation of...

Your knowledge, time and effort you put into these videos is awesome, I so much appreciate you sharing with everyone, many thanks
great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your English sounds like someone that doesn't speak it imitating what English sounds like to them.
I came here looking to find out what a distortion pedal was. You can skip the diode clamping stage and just have to opamp clamp if you find a lower power op amp and feed it with low vdd/vss. Alternatively, just increase gain and then voltage divide output. Some opamps with have smooth clipping, and others might clip differently at different frequencies ( function of opamp bandwidth )
Thanks so much for making these tutorial! I understand the basic behaviour of each block, and i want to try a simple simulation in LTSPice, but i don't have the knowledge to select the appropiate values for the resistors, capacitors, etc. Would you mind sharing these information about this simple design? Thank you so much!
11:04 preach it brother!
No distortion is not ideal, jazz tones do not sound good.
Great work, I hope to see more videos from you.
pretty cool, I like your style don't stop, accelerate!!!
I like your work. Connection between schematics and sound is clearly presented. I am curious, how will your project develop, even I am not interested in high distortion effects.
Just the depth of explanation I was looking for. Great job.
You could use a EQ after the distortion and double scoop 2k & 4k out of your signal.
Thank you for swinging education our way, this is genius, may your God go with you :)
Check out the preamp of the Gibson Lab L5 amp . That is one of my favorite solid state amps . It was used by B.B.King .
Nice. The explanation is thoughtful and easy to follow, even though I left my physics knowledge way back at school
Beautiful 🫡
Amazing work and presentation! Thanks for sharing!
Hello from California! Thanks so much for making this video series. I too am a guitar player and have been using TH-cam to help me understand the world of electronics. By the way, your guitar playing sounds great. You have a nice feel for playing metal. These 2 videos are taking me to the next step to see how different circuits work and how they sound. Keep up the great work and looking forward to the next video!
The only thing I could understanding was what the components where but I'm just learning and will be saving these videos for the future brilliant thanks
Вэри гуд, плиз континью, ви нид мор, чирз мейт!
лол 😁
😂
The signal will be shorted to ground because the diodes are connected in parallel in opposite polarities. There will be no output.
Diodes have resistance! This resistance is not a constant. Read about IV curve and differential resistance. With best regards. TonyD.
Please don't stop!!! Keep making these videos please! I would say everyone appreciates you for doing these videos!! Thank you!
Great explanation! As an engineer and DIY Synth and pedal builder, this is gold! You connect the dots between theory and practice including sound examples. Great work! Thank you!
In the next video, I will show really interesting things for you. This will be about wave shaping and musical theory explanation of harmonic ratio in the signal spectrum.
Hi, I'm new in this field. Nice video. I don't really understand, how sqrt(2) sits in between 0.5 and 1 on the y-axis as the sqrt(2) is 1.414.
I guess It's 1/sqrt(2)
This is a layout error. There should be 1/√2 ~ 0.7
Wow the algorithm really did hit spot on this time. I am a guitar player which also is planning to study electronics so this is really interesting. Well done!
I'm not a regular guitar player, I just love a guitar sound and I'm just a guy with a guitar who can't play. I have read a couple of books on electronics. These books are Tietze Schenk's electronic circuits and Oppenheim Signals and Systems. This is all u need to start in electronics.
Good video! Keep going
Man, you're very good explaining it! All the info i was looking for learning. Thanks, I'll be watching next videos. Grettins from Argentina!
Thanks for this video, as an electronics student, nice to learn music related to it..
Assuming that everything goes normal, I anticipate there will be numerous intriguing things for the students.
Awesome. Very excited for your new content
Very cool. Would be grateful for more videos in this series.
Hi, I'm from Brazil. I like the video, is a best video of distortion guitar, I understand all process in amplifier operational. Tank you.
Wonderful and detailed explanation, I look forward to more of your teaching! 🙏
this is gold! thank you, can't wait for part 2. 👋
Wait for the weekend
Beautiful video, thank you!
👏👏👏👏
Thanks for the great video. Explained in a simple but detailed way.
This is really cool..
Wow! Thanks for this video!
