• I’ve been working on an all-valve magic eye VU meter for a bit of fun. It’s a pair of 6E1P magic eye tubes for left and right channels driven by an ECC83 dual triode.

    I wanted to post a video with some proper music playing but I kept getting hit by YouTube copyright violations. Really annoying. So this is George Street Shuffle which is one of those YouTube no copyright music pieces for content creators.

    I’ve got it propped on top of the amp temporarily so I can run it. When I get an RCA splitter I’ll be able to patch it in properly and it can sit on top of the preamp. I would have put a second set of RCA jacks on the VU meter but there wasn’t space in the back of the chassis.

    It's properly turned into valve mountain in that corner. Total of 14 valves burning away when it’s all switched on!
