A strange comparison I know, but I got a really nice sound out of the HM-2 by setting the gain to minimum... sounds like a kind of furry Geezer Butler-esque tone. Which sound do you prefer? I'll reveal which is which later on.

Which makes sense since I have both those boxes on my board. If you put a gun to my head and told me to sell one of them, I'd probably lose the HM-2 given the versatility of the VT.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Rhode Island, USA | | | Number 2, which I'm guessing is the VT. It sounds great when you dig in. When you dig in on the first one, it sounds farty |

Will be interested in what pedal it is, and what settings were used  |
