If I use the Hell Melter with the Freeze, do I get the Lukewarm Hellwater?
Anyway, looks cool. Expanded HM2.

I'm so over HM-2's on bass. None of them sound good and are inaudible in a mix anyway, even with a blend.
If I can get hold of oneLets wait for the Dome Nightbearer demo! (Well, for guitar tones that is..)
Or @Andy westwood will perhaps do a bass demo...
Personally I don't think any version of the HM-2 sounds good with all that weedly weedly chops intensive stuff on bass, I wish he would have played some doom or just simpler stuff in general so you could hear the tone of the pedal a little better. I'm a huge fan of the HM-2 but I can't say I've been impressed with anything I've heard from the Hell Melter.
Just the idea of the hm2 with a blend is becoming more attractive. however, finding one to demo might be a challenge
I’m working on itAnother HM-2 fan here. I have seen one guitar demo where the Hell Melter sounded like a chainsaw, but the sound quality was not that good so it was hard to tell how good of a chainsaw it was. On the Navarro demo I do not hear the HM-2 'magic' at all, but that might have to do with the weedly weedly playing.
I do not expect much of a clean blend if the clean has the full frequency spectrum. That doesn't sound very good IMO. I DO like the sweepable mids!
Still waiting for the Andy Westwood demo haha!!
