Eight captures of the Raging Beaver plugin, BeatForge's circuit model of the Boss HM-2. They were captured from the plugin, not from a hardware pedal.
The settings run from Dist 3 with the tone controls at noon up to Sunlight, which is every knob at 10. Low 10 and High 10 are in there on their own so you can hear what each side of the Color Mix does.
The plugin solves the HM-2 schematic as a circuit: every transistor, diode and capacitor from its device equations, every sample, including the two gyrators hat make the tone stack. It has the same four knobs, plus a noise gate, input and output meters and a chromatic tuner. Free for 14 days at

Architecture 2. Each file holds both A2 networks, the full one for desktop and the lite one for hardware players. Held-out error against the plugin is 0.0016 o 0.0028 on the full network.

Eight captures of the Rodenticide plugin, BeatForge's circuit model of the ProCo RAT. They were captured from the plugin, not from a hardware pedal.
Four are the Distortion knob at 3, 5, 7 and 10 with the tone controls at noon. The rest use the plugin's extras: the Filter wide open and rolled off, the bass extension, and Chainsaw RAT, which is the RAT with the HM-2 tone stack behind it at Low 10 and High 10.
The plugin solves the RAT schematic as a circuit: thirteen nodes and four nonlinear ports every sample, with the LM308's slew limit modelled rather than curve-fitted, since that limit is most of what a RAT sounds like. It has the same three knobs plus the HM-2 EQ, bass extension, a blend, a noise gate, meters and a tuner. Free for 14 days at beatforge.nl/rodenticide.
