Why these settings

The GE200's high-gain amp models lack the Uberschall's signature tight-but-huge low-end, so the clean boost block with zero drive compensates by tightening the input signal. Mid is set lower than typical because the Schecter Omen's passive humbuckers are already mid-forward compared to the Les Paul Custom's PAF-style pickups. The post-EQ block adds the 2kHz aggression that defines the Uberschall's cut.

PRO TIPFor the iconic galloping triplet riff, mute aggressively with the heel of your palm right at the bridge saddles — too far back and you lose definition, too far forward and it sounds choked. The tone lives in that precise palm placement.
