Need advice: Help with tube preamp output (pedal)
« on: October 29, 2020, 09:43:47 pm »
Hi guys... I'm starting with a tube preamp pedal based in sluckey marshall  schematic. The output signal will be ok to work with a power amp/power amp in.
My question is: How I can get properly line signal to go from the preamp output to feed pedals? Do I need some pad attenuation? The 1 meg master volume pot will be enough to drive the properly signal level?

Probably gonna need a cathode follower after the master volume pot.
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!
