QuiteĪ bit lighter (higher impedance) load on the PickUp than what is “the norm” for PSG Otherwise perform the impedance conversion that is a buffer's primary role – 1Mohm in/1Kohm out. To (in part) emulate the peak handling of tubes, control tone and dynamic range handling to taste *, and
More than a buffer *, and with moderate settings it is perfect for my playing style. Them improves the sound in any way – just add forms of distortion I rather be without. There are many dedicated buffer-amps on the market, but as any stomp-box size effect unit will act as an impedanceĬonverter, I chose one that pretty much covered all my regular sonic needs, and skipped on the dedicated buffers ( Goodrich Matchbox 7A, Goodrich Steeldriver III, Sarno Freeloader) I have in store since none of I do however not particularly like anything else about tube amps – quit using anyĭecades ago, so my entire rig is solid state, with as few stages as technically possible. I like what tubes do when fed excessive attack peaks – “smear them out with mainly even harmonics” for lack ofĪ better description, making the output of those peaks sound much stronger to our ears than it actually is, without sounding If/when I need particular sound-effects. A pretty “skinny”, or minimal, setup, that I only add something to The basic sound chain in my setup consists of the PSG PickUp, a buffer-amp, a Volume Through a volume pedal for controlling signal levels and sustain, to an amplifier with settings for a more or less clean Noticeable effects for use in certain tunes and situations, and rely on what we can get out of the instrument itself, fed Other than those “standard” effects, most of us reserve the more Most PSG players insert light reverb and/or echo/delay in their sound chains, but for most of us Of us who do not want to rely too much on “external effects” to make up our unique and individualistic sonic
The basic, mainly unaltered, sound of the PSG, covers a wide enough range to play on for those Made to emulate other instruments quite well in addition to making all sorts of more or less musical noises. Īs with all amplified instruments, the sound of a pedal steel guitar can be altered and formed whichever way the player wants, and
