Analog Modeled Vintage Distortion Plugin

Chainsaw Machine

Heavy Pedal is a faithful analog modelled simulation of the *BOSS® HM-2™, the infamous Swedish Chainsaw distortion stompbox introduced in the mid-80s and that sculpted the guitar tone of many metal guitarists.

This high gain pedal is definitely the dark side in the panorama of distortion pedals. Audiority took our time to find a pristine conditions Japanese version of the pedal (ours is dated 1984) and Audiority modelled it as close as possible.
