Thermionic Culture Culture Vulture Stereo Valve Enhancer
This is the original and still the only studio unit dedicated to just adding valve produced harmonic distortion to sounds, with no solid state components in the way. This unique unit has changed little since its introduction in 1998.
There are 3 basic settings for the type of distortion:
- T gives the typically musical effect found with triode valves and is good for just warming up a sound.
- P1 means that the distortion valve is switched to Pentode mode to add odd harmonic which make the sound more aggressive, but retaining that valve character.
- P2 is the No Holds Barred setting and is very unusual way of configuring an unusual valve, even giving an extra octave at higher bias settings.
