01Zoom B1X Four: 160 Comp (Block 1)
Compressor block to even out hard-hitting pick attack
02Zoom B1X Four: DARK DRV (Block 2)
Darkglass B7K emulation block — primary source of metallic drive and clank
03Zoom B1X Four: Bass Graphic EQ (Block 3)
Scoops muddy low-mids and boosts treble snap
04Zoom B1X Four: SVT Amp + 8x10 Cab (Block 4)
Clean amp/cab platform block with master output level at 7
The G4M 972's active soapbars provide strong output and tight low-end tracking across the fanned scale, so keep the pickup blend centered with the onboard bass EQ flat and treble slightly boosted. The Zoom B1X Four's DARK DRV block delivers the essential modern metal clank without needing external analog dirt pedals. Keep the SVT amp block gain low (2) so the Darkglass distortion block stays crisp rather than muddy.
