ok, just an idea i figured id throw out to you smart folks around here... I wouldnt think it would be that hard to do... But im new at this stuff, so correct me if im wrong... you know how on certain pre amps you can crank the gain, and back off the input.. Adds harmonic distortion... How difficult would it be to create a unit to run your signals through so you can saturate the sound? maybee make 8 channels of it... If you have ever used a purple action compressor without compression happening, that sound is similar to what im trying to achieve... Any input?
