THE LITTLE RADIATOR CONTROL PANEL

The Bias switch selects between two subtly different styles of distortion 
based from saturation characteristics observed in different 1566A units. 
Bias set to “ON” is the more distorted of the two modes. Keeping the 
Bias control set to “OFF” results in a more accurate simulation of a 
pristine hardware unit, and has gentler saturation characteristics.

BIAS

Little Radiator  — Version 5

The 1566A has a significant amount of circuit noise even at low 
saturation levels and we decided to model and include this noise for 
Little Radiator. However, you can eliminate this modeled circuit noise by 
switching the Noise switch to the down (disengaged) position.
