#hm2 — Public Fediverse posts

So, der Bandcamp-Freitag ist zwar vorbei, aber dennoch gibt es jetzt eine schmackhafte Empfehlung für Euch Cvties...

...ORACLE OF WORMS 🔮🪱 sind #DeathMetal-Banditen aus Deutschland, die mit großer Freude und äußerst blutdürstig klassische #SweDeath- bzw. #HM2-Kettensägen schwingen, dabei aber nicht vor gelegentlichen #BlackMetal- und #Crust-Einsprengseln Halt machen.

Coole und fetzige Riffs, schmissige Songs, amtlichstes Geballer, dazu ein schniekes Artwork - da bricht das stinkende Grab auf und Ihr werdet ordentlich bedient, werte Mit-Maden 😌 ->

Edit: Grammatik

I am currently in Hamburg! ⚓🚢🩷 Visiting a dear friend and hanging out...

...now, this person is a huge #Warhammer and #Warhammer40K nerd and has a lot of minis and sourcebooks and just painting stuff, stored in their decidedly too small apartment and I'm feeling a bit besieged. In a good way. THE SIEGE OF TOUCAN, so to speak. 😁

To serenade that in an appropriate manner: here's German Warhammer #DeathMetal from Görlitz's ASCHENVATER. All hail the mighty #HM2! ->

Depending on the intro sanple I have to record and how long the solo will actually be, the song is about 3:30ish. Little teaser anyone?

I could do this all day long... 🤪 🇸🇪

Does anyone recognize this song?

This will be slightly #geeky, and probably only of interest to #electronics hobbyists and #guitar players. I happen to sit in the intersection of that particular #Venn diagram.

When I was a teenager, having only been playing guitar for a few years, I owned a guitar #effects pedal that went on to become legendary - the Boss HM-2 "Heavy Metal" #pedal. Its sound is still ubiquitous in metal.

I don't have it any more. I think I traded it for an analog chorus, which was a seriously expensive pedal back then. Although I have other #distortion effects, I've missed it a lot over the years.

Well, lots of hobbyists build their own effects. And the circuit schematics for many effects, particularly the classics, are available online. So like many others, I decided to build my own HM-2.

This image is the schematic for the #HM2. It's not the most complicated pedal, but it's a league above something like an Ibanez Tube Screamer. As far as active devices go, it's got 6 #opamps and 10 #transistors of various types, along with a bunch of diodes for multiple types and stages of clipping, and the usual jumble of capacitors and resistors. Oh, and four potentiometers.
