Overdrive with HM-2 EQ
Does this exist? I know there was a no clipping HM-2 thing going around, but what about something lower gain for the clipping with that EQ section? Ideally I’d want like a DOD 250 or something. Could the Elements do it?

Re: Overdrive with HM-2 EQ
Isn't this supposed to be something like a Harmonic Percolator with HM-2 EQ? (Not sure how it does lower gain.)

I have one of these already actually, it’s cool I just don’t like percolators as overdriveChankgeez wrote:Isn't this supposed to be something like a Harmonic Percolator with HM-2 EQ? (Not sure how it does lower gain.)![]()

Re: Overdrive with HM-2 EQ
Gotcha!
(Yeah, I agree. Also, I forgot you had one of those.)

The swede saw will boost significantly, but not dirty. It's pretty simple to add though.
Boneshaker could get you close. Goroth would probably recommend the elements for any sound

Re: Overdrive with HM-2 EQ
This might be a fucknut comment but have you tried the HM2 at low gain? Sounds pretty good... I like it all the way down. I'm guessing you've gone there, but just had to check.

Re: Overdrive with HM-2 EQ
Yeah, that’s my always on bass dirt, I want a different clipping texture with the ability to get the ridiculous boost from that EQ. I’m actually getting a 250 with clipping options, 3 band HM-2 EQ, and switchable mid frequencies built right nowpopvulture wrote:This might be a fucknut comment but have you tried the HM2 at low gain?

Re: Overdrive with HM-2 EQ
Excuse my ignorance, but what is so special about the HM-2 eq? I'm imagining that it has a big mid scoop, and then you can boost the bass and treble a lot? Does it have a signature sound that I should be aware of? I think Swedish chainsaw, but I've never really attributed that to the eq?

Re: Overdrive with HM-2 EQ
2 bands with a +/-12dB (correct me if I?m wrong) boost per each EQ Band, low being centered around 70-80 Hz (subbass galore earthquakes) and high (actually mids) centered around 1.2-1.3kHzPeteeBee wrote:Excuse my ignorance, but what is so special about the HM-2 eq?

Re: Overdrive with HM-2 EQ
Basically it’s a really exaggerated EQ boost with a bit of a dip in the mid mids, huge bump in the high mids and mid bass. Basically it’s perfect for 90’s death metal riffs and crusty hardcorePeteeBee wrote:Excuse my ignorance, but what is so special about the HM-2 eq?

Re: Overdrive with HM-2 EQ
get another hm2 and remove the hard and 2nd soft clipping stages
imagine finding out your son is your daughter & she's into noise music
