This is just out of curiosity, but how about an overdrive/tube drive unit that is cheap DSP-wise enough to replace the CW ones? (but with different algos) I'm just curious as to how "good" you can make an overdrive unit cuz I use it alot, and am getting kind of tired of the CW ones.
Does one exist by the way? Like some cheap freebie one?

a good distortion for tube sim cannot be "cheap" in dsp would take between 8 to 16 times more ressources than any CW distortion (for a simple conception).
