Lichtlaerm Audio Medusa - the next step in the evolution of the HM-2 ( with breathe//die )

- I started my death metal / HC / grind Band with the name breathe//die in 2018.
We knew, that we want to have that chainsaw sound but also tune to drop-A and play fast.
So I started chaising tones.
I build a lot of HM-2 clones and tested several boutique HM-2s but always had the same problem.
The gain section of the HM-2 was to fuzzy and flubby for my taste.
I started messing with Tubescreamers and treble boosts to tame the low frequencies going into the the gain section of the HM-2.
But i still was not satisfied.
Then I found a combination of features and build my first prototype.
In that time I met Daniel from Lichtlaerm Audio who just lives 10 minutes by bike from my flat and I showed him what I have discovered and asked him, if he would like to do a limited run of pedals with that feature set for our first release in late December 2020.
So we became friends while Germany was in lock-down mode. :D
Of caus daniel the wizzard added a few more things and corrected a few major mistakes in my schematic and so the breathe//die chainsaw pedal was born and sold out in a couple of days after the release.
A few months later we saw on of the breathe//die pedals on reverb for a shitload of money and started talking about a chainsaw pedal that will fit in Lichtlaerm Audios linup.
So we talked a lot about the possible feature set and here we are now in September 2023.
Almost 3 years later with the
Lichtlaerm Audio MEDUSA
My dream come true chainsaw pedal.
In breathe//die we are just 2 persons.
One drumming person and me, ben-john, who is screaming and playing the guitar wich signal got split into 3 Amps.
One down pitched signal into a few bass pedals into an orange terror bass 500.
the other two signals go into two medusa Pedals directly into an orange pedal baby.
Hell Yea, the sound is amazing.
The tight chainsaw sound I always was looking for.
I hope you enjoy the pedal as much as we do.
If you have any questions.
Let me know.
I am happy to answer.
Cheers.

I have no need for these pedals but it's like they're showing me, in all their glory, why I just might. Their pedals, from sound to design and artwork is stunning.
LOL! You stated exactly how I feel. I don’t need this, but I am so intrigued that I now want it so bad!!
Wunderbar, dass du mir jetzt die Pedale erklärst, die du gestern in der Zukunft auf dem Board liegen hattest. Ich habe mich während des Line Checks schon gefragt wie drei verzerrte Amps mit obendrein zwei Mal dem gleichen Dist so sauber klingen können. Anyway, tolle Show, toller Sound und tolle Socken. 🖤❤️
Ich splitte ja mein Gitarrensignal Signal in 3 Wege. Die zwei Gitarrensignale gehen dann jeweils durch eine Medusa, welche ich tatsächlich als reines PreAmp Pedal nutze und gehe damit dann direkt in jeweils eine Endstufe und dann in jeweils eine Box. Der Soundunterschied, den zwei unterschiedliche Gitarrenboxen machen, reicht mir da aus, dass die zwei Signale unterschiedlich genug klingen.
Danke für die Blumen. ❤🖤 In die Soundfindung ging total viel Lebenszeit.
Und die Show war der absolute Hammer. Das war ein riesen großer Spaß.
❤🖤
Woooo A new video after two years of inactivity. It's like Christmas before its time. Hoping for more in the coming months.
Haha. Thx mate. This hobby askes for so much work. xD
That riff was sick. *Shakes head side to side fast whilst quiet yelling
i ordered one just now, its my first time shelling out this kind of money on a pedal (most of my board is joyo clones) but im so impressed. i plan on building a preamp to power amp pedal rig and this will make a wonderful preamp for what i want.
Any update? I was thinking of getting the Gehenna from Lichtlaerm since it is marketed as a pre-amp.
Er lebt noch!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤘🤘
:D Ja, dieses Leben kommt einem so mancham in die Quere.
Laut dem Aufkleber, auch in die Queere! 🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈😁
Freu mich für die das die Medusa so geil gelungen ist 🤘🤘

Hoooooooo boy. That first song right off the bat is the music I want to make with this pedal!
What a compliment my friend.
@@theinterface_audioexcellent, I will!
@@theinterface_audio I forgot to ask: is there a complete version of this intro track we can listen to somewhere?
@@mofongotron not yet, but there will be one on our next release.
@@theinterface_audio I forgot to ask: are the settings seen at the beginning of the video the settings you used to get the sound in the song that is playing? I assume it was going through a crunchy amp.
🎉🔥
great sounds! Which amp are you using?
You can see the signal chain for the first song at Minute 1:11.
The Medusa Pedal was used as a preamp and plugged directly into an Orange Pedal Baby.
For the Rest of the Video I use a Bugera V22 and you can see the Amp in the lower part of the video while I am talking and playing.
Just got The King In Yellow and it’s super noisy. I’m running it into a Friedman IR-X and then into my interface. Anyone else experiencing Lichtlaerm pedals being noisy? My Ghenna is also super noisy. Maybe it’s something in my setup🤷🏻🤷🏻
