Hi Eddie, Great job Eddie. Thank you so much for doing this Outstanding video. The tutoring was awesome. 👏

[@KissAnalog]

Thanks for watching and I am glad you enjoyed it!

Paul Carlson of Mr Carlson's Lab KZbin channel must have dozens of every tube ever made, I've never seen anyone who knows more about tubes and tube equipped devices. Simply amazing. Thanks Eddie for the tutorial on MicroCap, as a mid level technical electronics hobbyist I doubt I will ever use computer software to build circuits. It is interesting though and I'm sure the Engineers/technicians out there appreciate it. I added a new Fluke meter to the bench😉I know, I know....

Yes Mr. Carlson knows his tubes - but so does Skunky Designs - have you seen her channel?

You mentioned the 12AX7. It's amazing how high the costs have been going on those. I had to by a few of them to restore a Dynaco PAS3.. Prices ran between $25 and $50 each. Regarding the subjectivity of the Hifi audiophile world I see a lot of discussion on KZbin about the frequency response curves of Amplifiers, speakers, but very little if any discussion regarding Equal loudness contours (Phons) which is going to be a factor in how we perceive what we're hearing. I was thinking it would be nice if you included that in a video sometime when diving into Hifi performance and perception. It might be nice if you could or would address the 'Loudness switch/circuit' which used to be common in amplifiers but for some reason that I for one don't know of has dropped out of popularity in amp designs. I've been enjoying the MicroCap series you're doing with regard to tubes. I'm a fan of tube amps.

Thanks for the great ideas and feedback! I'll have to look into this and talk about it;)

Could you do a video on workbench organization?

[@KissAnalog]

LOL - I'm an expert at that;)

[@pbaemedan]

Eddie, can you use your own Pspice lib to Micro-cap libraries?

[@KissAnalog]

Thanks for asking! Yes, I think you can import - that's the power of MicroCap. I don't think there is a single thing that Pspice can do that MicroCap can't do better;) For one, MicroCap has a much larger library of parts - and circuits - much larger;)

@KissAnalog, yes over my 50 year as an Electromagnetic Effects Engineer, I have developed serval libraries that I use for lightning and EMC analysis .

457 vacuum tubes, if you open the component editor pallet or the panel it shows a count.

[@KissAnalog]

Thanks for the great feedback! I'll have to show this;)

how is the APFC PSU project going along?
