Hi!
I’m looking for “something”. Not 100% on the sound.. but has to be extreme distortion in the hm2, dod deathmetal, lal devil tail type vein.. something I can get weird chainsaw/grindy like sounds but also plus a guitar with buckers and do chug. But. It needs to have a clean blend because multipurpose uses. Also looking for cheapest end… I like looks of the ehx hell melter….

The not! Not a fuzz (have this in different flavors already) not OD (have these in multiple too)


Thanks

Huh, I thought it would show a preview. Anyway it's the Dunn Effects Death Knob.

Interesting.. but.. so it doesn’t distort? It eqs everything into the voicing of a hm2

$60 Sonicake Portal parallel mixer pedal thingy and a $22 (adjusted for inflation) chainsaw or two? If you have the space and PSU support, doing the dry blend externally means you have more available flavor choices and you can do stuff like process a clean or cleaner sound to complement. I think it was the Damnation Audio MBD that had the wisdom to shape the “clean blend” signal to actually work well blended with the dirt, rather than just being fairly unprocessed.

Thanks will check demos. Normally I use a loop with blend or a parallel mixer but for this set I’m already settled on a od with a blend and a brassmaster clone… not sure where I’m going with board size yet.. I was hoping to use less utility pedals for once.. probably won’t end up that way though

The V1 has internal controls which I thought included distortion, but I just checked their site and it says the internal gain is just for the clean signal. And I guess V2 doesn't have those controls.

Either way I will grant it is a unique idea, I can see for some that would be useful.

For me though not so much.. I have an 85-86 boss hm2 if I need that specific Swedish flavor but i was using the term more for extreme metal sounds in a generic way…

And I ended up finding a deal on a Walrus Eras Five-State Distortion for like $110.00 before shipping all the demos show it chugging and taking other dirt pedals so it should stack well.

I’ll report back..

Ok has pedal!
Pedal is interesting. Keep in mind I’ve long tried it so far through a kasino head with a 60s sunn 1x15..
On guitar - metalz, Mesa dual rectifier vibe, kinda vanilla, does not chainsaw.
On bass- active bass over loads it in funny ways, spongy, much doomz, blend is a bit grainy.
I think but stacking with od and fuzz I can get where I am going…
Pros - doomz, tons of lows, has a cow on it.
Cons - tame yet can be over loaded

Edit: plugged it into a tube amp.. can grind
