Bypass for main heavy rhythm riffs (run direct into amp input)
The Synergy Uberschall module naturally supplies huge, low-end wallop and aggressive high-gain saturation akin to the 5150 and Dual/Triple Rectifier blend Colin Richardson used on the album. Keep the bass around 5 to avoid flubbing the drop-tuned chugs, and set mids to 4 for the classic metalcore scoop while retaining cut. Since your owned pedals are ambient time-effects, leave them bypassed for the tight rhythm tracks. For the melodic clean/atmospheric intro passages, switch the Uberschall to the Clean/Blue channel and engage the Dispatch Master with Reverb at 5 and Mix at 4.
