Hartke Hydrive 112C: Engaging The Bass Attack! Attack! Attack!

June 12, 2008
Hartke Hydrive 112C Part 2

Join Owen O'Malley as he plays a stimulating game of "Name That Distorted Bass Riff." It shouldn't be hard, there's only, like, four to choose from.

After getting his fill of the overdrive channel, Owen fiddles with the seven-band EQ to find the combo's tonal limits, and gives everyone a good look at the back panel, to teach the combo some humility.

Presenter: Owen O'Malley And Gretchen Hasse, Gearwire

distortion subjectivity

By: bholland

I mean, I know you and henry like your analog, but give me a nasty PCM wave any day. Nothing like a little 8-bit distorted bass.
