Gain scheduling

[EtherealWidow]

When designing your own amp, how do you go about determining how much signal is actually making it to the next stage? For example,a gain stage with a typical 38k output impedance going into a 220k grid leak for the next stage. Would it be safe to say only about 83% of the signal is making it to the next stage?

What about the typical stage going into a 220k/220k mid peaker and then a 500k grid leak? (ignoring frequency response, of course)

What about tone stacks?

As always, Roberto, thanks. I think I'd only skimmed that article before and settled mostly on Merlin's explanation of the gain stage.
