Electro-Harmonix Hell Melter

A take on the HM-2 with more features and controls. Not sure about the graphics. Kind of busy.

 

[DrewJD82]

Definitely busy in picture. Graphics are awesome but make those switches as apparent as possible, this doesn’t even seem shoegaze appropriate.

 

[dronerstone]

Busy thing, but seems cool tho.

HM-2 with 3 band EQ, parametric mids, noise gate, and even a boost? Nice take, Mike Matthews!

A few years late, still better than never.

EHX has been a crap shoot, reliability wise for me every single time. That name is a bit off putting as well I'd certainly be interested in giving a rip through one, though

It probably won't end up on any P&W boards within the foreseeable future.

I love the hyoooooge knobs! They're kind of hilarious.

Haha! Could do some Stryper and take the Hell to the Devil.

I kind of want one because it is probably utterly ridiculous and something I would likely not
find useful. Is that weird?

Not at all, as long as you don't buy more than one.

I feel about EH distortion like I feel about Boss distortion---especially the higher up the ladder of gain
you go, where the results get worse and worse.

Nah, I know what you mean but some years ago I learned to be fond of Boss drives again, seriously. Not rockin' any right now, but there's a reason some of them are industry standards and have been in production for 40 years.

We all have to draw the line somewhere.

I love an SD-1.

I am on board with their iconic overdrives. They lose me when it gets
to distortion and the transistor gain gets ratcheted up. I just can't. As
much as they may have worked for other people it is not someplace I
ever want to revisit.

Couldn't agree more, especially when it comes to the SD-1.

 

[la szum]

Yeah, life is incomplete without an SD-1 in your arsenal.

 

[Stone]

Love the SD1 in my FM9
Yellow box for the win

Dude, Hell Melter into a Randall Satan. You’ve captured the demons, now they work for you and your toan.

 

[BahamaDada]

Nice addition of a dry level. Makes it usable with bass.
