- Technical Implication: The SE100 model allows the user to drive the virtual power tubes to saturation while managing the output volume. In a digital environment, this is achieved by simulating the frequency response curve of a fully saturated tube power section (EL34 tubes) interacting with a reactive load, rather than just simulating pre-amp distortion.
