Abstract: A dynamic sensor regulator that provides a mechanism for introducing desirable tonal artifacts in component-based guitar amplifier systems by inducing voltage fluctuations into the power supply of a preamplifier. The dynamic sensor regulator comprises a regulator circuit, connected to an amplifier that is connected to a converter circuit that is connected to a variable control circuit. The amplifier includes a floating bias circuit that dynamically adjusts the bias state of an output driving amplifier in response to signal fluctuations of the regulator output signal. A transformer is connected to the amplifier output and once the transformer's saturation point has been reached, the saturation of the transformer increases proportionally with the amplifier's input signal while the regulated output signal remains constant, emulating amplifier overload and saturation.
