WILL IT CHUG? Getting into the Swedish Death Metal sound here.

i remember this being my first ever pedal and since i was more into blues i would set the gain to 0 and the volume to like 15% and set my amp to a low volume to and it would still sound like death metal

[@EYOUTz1993]

I bought one for cheap HM-2 sounds and was blown away by how good it sounds. EMGs into the Eyemaster into the clean channel of a Crate GT-500H, absolutely crushing tone.

[@TheJMan1K]

Evan Youtz mind sending a phone vid? I bought a Aion Metal Distortion (a decent quality HM-2 clone) and it sounded different from what I was expecting. My main rig right now is a RG150 into a Carvin 4x12 with 75s. I don’t know if it’s my rig but it doesn’t seem to capture the chainsaw sound I had in my mind. However, when boosted with an OCD it sounds ballsy like a dual rec.

[@jamesf2918]

Sounds like bloodbath when it’s on the distortion channel. Love it.

[@nickmetal131]

I like the Eyemaster so much that I quit using my MIJ Boss HM-2, annnnd that was after I had gone back to the HM-2 after I ditched the over-hyped Left Hand Wrath. TC Electronic nailed this one.

[@alexmurphy5289]

TC electronic are incredible, they've obviously been in the game for decades now but lately they've been killing it. My flashback 2 delay pedal is absolutely phenomenal for the money. Are there better delays out there? Yes, but marginally and none with the flexibility and size of the flashback 2. Also, toneprints are underrated as hell.

[@ilikepotatoes1345]

Dude, now I just have to pick it up. Been using my HM-2, but I'm so fuckin' scared that it'll croak on me(the fuckin' thing is over 30 years old now, and has been through some shit) so lately especially, I've been trying to not "put as many miles on it" and have been looking for sort of a replacement. I'll keep the HM-2 for special occasions and stuff, maybe make a little shrine for that thing, so I can worship it lmao.

[@nickmetal131]

@@ilikepotatoes1345 that's the same reason I started using the Eyemaster live with my old band. I wanted to save my last HM-2 (I used to have 4 of them 2 Japanese, 2 Taiwanese) from getting wrecked at basement shows and dive bar gigs.

[@Crowbar11115]

[@TidusfromZanarkand]

I bought an amazing guitar today (Jackson Warrior Japan 98' with Nazgul/Sentient magnets installed) and also bought this pedal, because I don't currently have money to spare for the real deal, the HM-2w. It sounds absolutely brutal, holy shit!!

[@orenom6704]

Its a Boss HM2 clone, but more in the sound of the Wolverine Blues sound than Like an everflowing stream or Left hand path. For the price it's cool pedal.

[@dustinbrown8450]

That's str8 wolverine blues... Put that thing on a bass rig!!

[@Owned610]

DUSTIN BROWN ive already done that, its got excessive amounts of bass, so it fit perfectly

[@ganglu]

That was my first thought. Perfect for the Dan Lilker, SOD bass tone.

[@Nightbreed82]

I agree, it would sound better on a bass....especially since you can't tweak the EQ, i.e. adjust the massive bass output.

[@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic]

It actually sounds pretty awesome as a bass drive, I use it with my Ibanez through an Ampeg combo amp, and it sounds pretty awesome

[@aidubxr2016]

has anyone tried it with an electric guitar and a bass amp?

[@thehoppo]

Its supposed to sound terrible, but since you are a fucking poser that doesnt listen to death metal you dont know that, they were trying to imitate the heavy metal pedal, and they nailed it.

[@gorf101]

This is my absolute favorite video for a pedal demonstration.. I laugh and love this every time I see it!

[@joshmore7175]

The gain knob does literally nothing until it’s at like 0.5 😂😂😂 it’s just all gain or no gain

[@ryanjenkins6899]

You try to turn down the gain and pedal tells you no

[@njsteere]

Cheaper parts than an on/off switch I guess

[@decisionheight]

Stop the clock at 00:00:01. It chugs alright straight from the beginning. 🤘

[@Fektthis]

I've owned an HM-2 for years but I honestly always thought the Swedish Death Metal sound was closer to the sound of my old DOD Supra Distortion when it's battery is just about to die.

[@H_A_R_M]

Why did you even bother to time it? 😂😂😂 Instachug! 🤘🙈

[@c4li]

interesting, and as a big HM2 fan (i own a original mint japanese and a bashed up modded taiwanese pedal - they sound pretty much identical if you where wondering) i appreciate the recent interest in this type of oldsql swedish buzzsaw sound that i have learned to love ever since hearing bloodbath in the early 2000s.

[@michaelczesnozki1671]

TC makes a boost/overdrive that is so good. It's in the same style housing and it's really cheap. It has so much gain in a boost pedal it will shoot your amp into boarder line distortion.

[@carolinehaf21]

Anyone know the name of it?

[@youvegotmysong]

Im not sure if its what hes talking about, but I have a Cinders OD pedal bt TC and its pretty versatile.

‘NOISE GATES ARE FOR PUSSIES!’ Primo clip right there. Always bringing the quality content.

[@thatguyoverthere2755]

That's some straight sludgey tones and I love it!

[@recordednowhere]

back in the 90s i had no idea how to get close to that entombed tone, only stumbled across something very close once by accident by plugging a digitech floorboard into a russian bass amp. (rehearsal after that it didnt sound the same, never got it sounding like that again). when the internet happened, i did some research and finally bought an hm2. now its 2019 and theres virtual hm2s, boutique hm2s, mainstream market hm2s. this is great but also very strange to me :) "somewhat peculiar"

[@UrbanAnimism]

It would be great to see you doing an HM-2 clones comparison video!

[@coffinfeeder7732]

He did one with the Boss HM-2 and Behringer HM-300 and they basically sounded exactly the same.

[@UrbanAnimism]

@@coffinfeeder7732 Yeah, for sure man, but there are lots of great boutique clones (Wurm, Left Hand Wrath, Nihilist, Angry Swede, Red, etc). I think it would be great to see some of the high-end clones compared with Ola's great riffs.

[@turaly0n]

@@UrbanAnimism What is the red pedal you mention?

[@UrbanAnimism]

@@turaly0n It's the Walrus Audio Red distortion. It's also based on the HM-2, but it's more versatile. It's not that accurate, but you get a really great sound too.

[@DaveViner]

It totally slugs....I want to hear it with a bass, I reckon that'd sound badass

[@rubixtriangle3720]

I do that for my live setup.... and it does sound badass

[@oldnikix]

HM-2 sounds great on bass but you have to parallel blend it for optimal results.

Man that actually pretty much nails the tone on Wolverine Blues!!

[@eddominates]

The best part is that it's just DIMED from the start and you only temporarily turn the gain down and then back to 10.

Really funny that the pedal came this morning to my mail and when I check youtube I see Ola's testing it. Awesome, man!

[@upreydeen]

This pedal comes with the "low" and "treble" potentiometers internally, from the factory you may expect those to be set at noon, but is the first thing I would double check to be at "max", that is probably the reason why is not chugging the way it should.

[@SleepingLionsProductions]

Oh so it really is an HM2 but the low and treble pots are trimmers? That's good to know cuz that means with some work, we can replace the pots with external ones

[@tankjr1000]

That pedal sounds much better and more focused after a tubescreamer-like booster
