Death Metal pedalboard

[O Drones]

came here to post exactly this!

I have an old fx86 that is broken somehow and oscillates. Don't need to stack for HNW with that one..

All HAIL VOMIR!!!!!

should you ever need to leave the sunlight sound

What good could come of this? Scott Burns typewriter clickey clackey drums and your sweet fretless bass turned down to zero?

Yep. Put a ts9 instead of the comp. ts into HM-2 is a great tight modern sound, should you ever need to leave the sunlight sound. I'd ditch the noise gate for a harmoniser, and keep the chorus. The mxr 1 knobber is super good. I only have a ps-5 but I think it tracks better and sounds better after distortion.

Oh yeah.... Cosmichorus!!!

i pulled some pedals from my main board and i made the following conclusions...
- comp isn't that great, i lose too much pick attack which i like to keep with this kind of music.
- noise gate isn't really needed as i'm not playing with a lot of short stops
- slight amount of reverb sounds really good

The one thing i didnt get time to do was try my OCD with HM2, i'll do that tomorrow and see what the OD does.

So the pitch/harmoniser pedal seems pretty cool so i think that's one i will invest in in addition to a reverb.

I'd have thought the valnott would be at the top of the list...

Kinda curious how the ocd with the hm2 would sound. The ocd is my favorite overdrive, but never got to try it with a hm2 as I haven't owned one in years. I used to pair the hm2 with a boss od-1. If cheap and nasty is what your going for I'd recommend a digitech bad monkey, it's a ts9 clone and can be had for next to nothing.

I reckon an OCD might have a bit too much bass for an HM-2. But test it by all means! Also, dr scientist RRR looooves copious amounts of distortion. It was the reverb that got me to like reverb on distortion.

Glad to know that info about the RRR, I've had a boss rv-3 since 96 and its starting to display some odd behaviors, may be needing a replacement sooner or later.

Thanks for the advice...

Hardwire reverb is rad!

Sounds like you got it all sorted, Sam.
Demoooooos!

[samzadgan]

You got a tab for those too lazy to learn it by ear?
