I don't know what is baffling to you, so it makes it hard for me to help. If you have measurements of an amp, you can duplicate it for however many harmonics you wish. At that point it will do what the amp would do for one frequency, for two, for multiple tones or for music. Yes that includes harmonics of harmonics. It simply mathematically re-creates the transfer function of the amp. It might help to play around with the software if you have time. If you don't have time, okay I get that too. And we aren't limited to testing at one frequency.So you're saying it can duplicate all the harmonics that the amp might make from a musical cut, not just the harmonics of fundamental tones but also harmonics of harmonics of fundamental tones, based on a single sample at a certain frequency, such as 50Hz??
We know that distortion rises with frequency in this amplifier. I have to imagine the software doesn't know that. So how is that dealt with?
I believe SIY had in mind using the distortion at its worst, the one for the high frequencies as something of a worst possible case with the Adcom.
Now I don't think it varies the transfer function with frequency. But it is possible Paul could add that function if we ask.

So to my knowledge your Distort software does not vary distortion by frequency. Is that correct? Is it a feature you could add to it?
