Hoffman Plexi 50 hot gain
« on: March 25, 2017, 02:15:37 am »
thinking about building this one with the hot gain, but put it on a relay with a foot pedal instead of a switch. seems like I would be good to control how much gain you get when V1B kicks in. just put a pot between C3 and the relay.... or pin 7, or ????

I personally would want a pot before and after the hot switch gain stage.  Having said that, you could put one pot on the board inside the chassis or on the back of the chassis.

With respect, Tubenit
