Cygnus X1 is on a distinguished road
Default Designed a Channel Switcher

My own design using the preamp from the "Cygnus-7".

High gain one side, tweed clean on the other.
6L6GC Power tubes cathode biased (split bias).
SS rectifier.
HT fused.
Passive switch between the two.
I would have thought that switching would POP, but it does fine.
Here's an initial pic, it is built into a gutted Fender 75:



Soundclip?
How about a little something...just stomping on the footswitch, wanking.
(Really BAD wanking at that)!
I'm still hearing a high pitched noise from Soundclick.
It isn't present on the WAV or the MP3 files here on my computer.
Annoying!

MP3 Player SoundClick

Actually that isn't the best Ch. 2 has to offer.
Sounds loose and fizzy on that clip.
I'll work on more clips.
