I don't know if I am even sure I know what the chainsaw guitar tone is. I imagine I have heard it before but I can't direct you to a song that represents it accurately. How do you achieve it with Kemper? High-gain profile + fuzz + treble boost??
How to get the Chainsaw guitar tone?
-
Do you mean swedish death metal chainsaw sound? If so a boss hm-2 will give you that sound.
-
Dont know what it is but it sounds horrible
-
Isn’t there a Husqvarna preset in the Kemer Drive already ?

Pretty obvious!! If you play Death Metal and want your guitar licks sound like a chainsaw ripping through flesh and bones. If the theme is horror, it is not surprising it sounds "horrible" ?
There are people out their, that are so hooked to HM-2 on max tone, it's almost a religious cult. A cult that baths in blood and wicked pleasures ?

As a guitarist, and a Kemperer, I figure it would be advantageous to study all genres to gain inspiration and technique to incorporate into my own songwriting. So, if I am feeling a little board during practice then why not? I don't want to be limited even though I might limit what songs I publish myself.

I think I found the example here searching for Boss HM2. Sounds awful alone buts works in that mix.

Is there a difference between Chainsaw and Djent?
Yes
Djent: Your parents bought you an Axe-Fx, you payed attention in math class and want to show that in your music, you practice and practice until 6 strings aren't enough and you can shred on 8 strings, you want a polished, low mid scooped, medium high gain tone to bring out your tight palm mutes
Chainsaw: Your parents are vikings that went on a raid, in school you painted unreadable fictional band logos and let your hair grow, you don''t need to practice to play faster or better, cause you have a deal with Satan, you tune your guitar down to hell, you want a raw brutal high gain tone that sounds like a throttled chainsaw
The holy grail of chainsaw:

Anyone noticed they stole Ozzy's scream into the intro?

you might get there either using
A clean or mostly clean profile and stacking lots of drives and boosts
Or
Mid to high gain profile using one or two drives
Or
possible taking a clean or mostly clean profile and turning the profile gain waaaaaaaaaay up plus adding drives and stomps

No that won't work or come close enough. You need a Boss HM-2 or any clone capable of copying that sound.

Reading this circuit layout makes me think I could hahaha
I made some presets trying to get the Sleep sound from the album Jerusalem by stackin 3 or 4 stomps and shapers together. It sounds like a mangled mess but it's supposed to.
This had me think that the chainsaw could be reached by similar means. Or maybe even something better and different slightly.
Slam the preamp, cascade the gain, compound the power amp, splay the cabinet, shred into the void bwhahahaha

I was surprised to find how specific the tone is to that one pedal, and one country.
-
Actually the cheapest, and best clone, is a Behringer HM300

Use a distorted stomp and run it into a distorted profile. Then EQ till you get a cutting tone, boosting mids might help.

I support this 100 percent.
Try it before you deny it
