Duuuuuuurr - call me slow but I just got the inside joke of the HBE Hematoma's name - why don't they describe the function of the switch more specifically? Ya think it'd help them sell more pedals!

"Why is the HBE Hematoma named after the bruising that is symptomatic of internal bleeding?"
here is your hint, from the instructions/description: "EQ Shift changes the sweep of the tone control and provides a warmer smoother tone when engaged." |

I always figured it was just a way of saying it was a bass overdrive that would punish your audience. |

Another hint: I'm making some clips for waveform analysis after i eat Quote:

In fact, the punkifier DOES transform you from a poseur into a real punk. Now get off my lawn. |

another hint, it helps to know something about the history of the "tubescreamer"

somebody smack me if I'm wrong, but this switch appears to not only be an EQ shift but actually also an asymmetrical/symmetrical clipping mode switch.
When activated it shifts downward in frequency but also smoothens considerably. Can somebody recommend a good app for graphing waveforms so I can confirm this?
The "point" of the thread is/was that hematomas are classified in diagnosis as being either symmetrical or asymmetrical. |

I thought your point was actually from a different angle like having part of the signal feedback upon it's self i.e. bleeding internally. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
