so if you want a more classic sounding or 80s-based tone, then go a little higher on reverb. Reverb - all in all, reverb just adds polish to your tone.

either way, you wanna keep it fairly high for anything you're gonna play, cause most guitar notes are on the treble side and need enough of it to sound out properly. it's basically entirely personal preference, but leaning towards a higher treble does result in a newer metal sound, so keep that in mind as well.

Treble - on the other hand, your treble should be a little more constant. it's also just mostly personal preference, so adjust according to what you want to hear. but if you want to have a classier rock feel, raise your mids a little. if you want a heavier metal/thrash sound, then go for lower mids. Mids - here, the numerical ratio to heaviness is just the opposite. however, i've noticed that sometimes if i have too much bass, the palm muting tends to get blurred and sound bulky, so i wouldn't recommend going too crazy on the bass unless it goes flush with your other settings. the more bass you have, the deeper your tone is going to sound. you want to have a balance here between heaviness and playability.īass - again, heaviness comes to play here. so the less distortion, the less your background noises are highlighted. the only thing i'd warn against is applying more distortion than you need, because this causes everything you do on the fretboard to be heard more than it should be, such as fingers sliding across, etc. if you want a nice metal-hearty tone with just enough distortion to get good palm muting, then go for the middle. if you want a highly distorted, experimental/industrial sound, then go alot higher. if you need a moderately crunchy, classic rock-ish tone, then go a little lower. but basically, this is how you can tell where to line up each individual setting:ĭrive - basically, this is just a matter of how heavy you want your tone to be. The reason alot of these are variable is because this general ballpark of settings has a wide range of applications and has alot of base in personal preference. Hey everyone, i recently discovered this master setting that's good for pretty much anything metal, and covers just about anything with a few tweaks.
