Hi
A couple of people suggest me to simulate this or that, that's nice, thanks a lot therefore.
However, some suggestions going along to simulate a power amp.
After some work and research I decided to create my own circuit, surly hardly based on known schematics.
So I come up with the CreamMachine. It's based on a input stage driven by two 12AX7 tubes, here is the schematic:
The two 12AX7 tubes nicely compress and saturate the input signal, so that the input becomes "creamy" without spikes in the signal.
A tonestack with bass and treble control allow to fine-tune your signal, when needed.
The input stage is followed by a power amp stage with two EL34 tubes:
On the input of the power amp stage is a lowpass with 12kHz.
The two EL34 pentodes drive the output transformer to the final volume control.
and flow finally into the cabinet simulation:
The result is ( i found) a nice sounding Power Amp simulation with a creamy sound.
Here it is:
Even if it ain't looks like, be aware that this is a power amp, not a small pedal like it looks.
Here is a plot of the power amp stage:
