Introducing the XIX Tech HMD-1 - a distortion pedal that takes the iconic sound of the Boss HM-2 and elevates it to new heights. As a self-professed devotee of the original, the XIX Tech team set out to address the shortcomings of the classic, while preserving its beloved tone and character. At the heart of the HMD-1 lies a meticulously engineered circuit that captures the gritty, chainsaw-like distortion that made the HM-2 a staple in the Swedish death metal scene. But this isn't just a simple clone - the team has made a host of technical improvements, resulting in a pedal that is more refined, responsive, and versatile than its predecessor. Gone are the imperfections of the original, replaced with a silky-smooth operation and a true bypass design that ensures your tone remains pristine.
