Synopsis:

This book is a step-by-step tutorial for simulating guitar amplifier circuits using LTspice, a SPICE-based electronic circuit simulator available for free from Analog Devices for Windows and macOS. The book walks you through the basics of developing a schematic, setting up a simulation, and interpreting the results. From there it gradually ramps up to advanced topics, like analyzing the dynamics of overdrive and writing your own SPICE models for triodes and power tubes. With this book, you will learn how to
1. analyze tone shaping circuits,
2. simulate real-world components,
3. evaluate the performance of a tone stack,
4. compute a power supply's DC output voltage under load,
5. determine the effects of negative feedback for single-ended and push-pull power amps,
6. measure the dynamics of harmonic distortion in preamps and power amps, and
7. analyze transient behavior when stages are overdriven.
