Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The Death By Audio Octave Clang V2 is a second-generation octave distortion pedal from the Brooklyn boutique manufacturer, adding upper-octave harmonic content to the distortion character for a clanging, synth-like quality. The octave-up harmonic combines with the distortion saturation to produce a distinctive, complex distortion with enhanced upper harmonics that adds a metallic, ringing quality to aggressive playing. Made in Brooklyn, New York by Death By Audio.
The Meris Hedra is a three-voice rhythmic pitch shifter inspired by esteemed studio rack harmonizers like the Eventide Ultra-Harmonizer and Rocktron Intellipitch. It layers three independent pitch voices beneath the dry signal at intervals from two octaves down to two octaves up, with selectable key and scale for diatonic harmonies. It handles Whammy-style drop-tuned octave dives for beefy detuned riffs and wild octave-up leaps with ease, while a glide control moves from hard-tuned modern shifts to natural note transitions and a Micro Tune control adds synth-like detuning to fatten or warp the signal. Four delay configurations build complex, textured harmonized echoes. With MIDI and expression control, it suits adventurous players, though it rewards solid harmonic knowledge.
