So, I was going to post in Geekslutz.. I thought having the new forum I'd try here. Wondering what exactly the old VHT Valvulator does to a guitar signal. I used one for years as power for my pedal board.. Definately sounded better than without. Great. Well, some years back, the board outgrew its power capabilities.. I got a Radial true bypass loop for the handful that weren't..
Almost. Negligible difference. Not concerning me. In that reworking, I ditched the VHT into the closet. No longer needed for power.. Big heavy brick of a thing. So, couple things happened.. Mixing a record where I used it for some bass DI, just because I was splitting into two DIs for comparison variety (it has two outputs)..
DI, the bass tracks that I used it to split sound significantly better. Then I run across it cleaning today.. No pedals at all. Across the board it sounded better. Brighter.. yet at the same time, the highs were less "forced" or unnatural.

So, I'm thinking.. A) what is it doing to show such marked improvement just straight in.,and B)why don't people just build whatever this circuit does into the inputs of amp? Now, I've had to replace some kinda little electronic piece of it years ago.. VHT gave me the spec and pix on how to replace, if memory serves.
I'm pretty sure they no longer even make the thing.. What do we know about what it does? When I replaced the doohickey.. I can tell you this is one crazy piece of kit- -not like half the pedals of the world that look like things I could build.. Needless to say, mine is going nowhere, and will be used religiously from now on for recording..
VHT Valvulator. So, I was going to post in Geekslutz. From the description in the manual. The Fryette SAS is the smallest pedal I know that runs the tube at a proper (200v).

I seek to understand what it's doing. Is there a way to do whatever it's doing (or very similar) with some other pedal? Is the tube actually significant..? I'm hearing some other aspect?
Who knows about this unit?
