I've just released a new Pedal simulation based on the famous DOD 250 overdrive/preamp Pedal from the early 70's.
Here is the schematic I use in the guitarix DK simulator to create the plug:
And this is the resulting LV2 plugin:
This one works very well for reliable overdrive that can go from clean sound over bluesy warms to very hot leads,

That's ace! I haven't quite understood this properly though: can Guitarix generate plugins from schematics? I am curious to know whether I could make my home built valve distortion pedal come alive through Guitarix and maybe contribute it (if it does not suck).
Yes it can with the tools included with the sources. There is no documentation and it is not straightforward but it can. You need some knowledge in Python and Faust mainly.
Documentation is on my TODO list after I'll bring my first plugin alive and use it as an example but for the now I'm trying to get everything together after a long session of studying it with the help of Hermann (thanks again!)

Nice! Maybe I will start lurking in the code and see whether I can figure something out in the meanwhile. After all, my schematics are 4000 km from where I live, so I am not in a hurry.
Well, I could imagine a LV2 plugin which will allow to load a schematic and use it in real-time.
True, far away from were we are now, but most of the framework is done.

That would make Guitarix an ultimate virtual tool for the guitar enthusiasts. One could try amp/fx mods or new inventions withing Guitarix first, and then implement them in the real world.
