Question EBS ValveDrive like a SVT sound

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi, I'm trying to get an overdriven SVT sound from a EBS ValveDrive. Could anyone help me with the EBS's settings require for this purpose?

Thanks

The problem is that the EBS is just one preamp tube, while the SVT uses multiple preamp and power amp tubes, all of which add to the overdriven sound. You're better off getting a pedal that emulates the whole SVT sound, such as a Tech21 VT, rather than trying to get that sound with one preamp tube.
