Why these settings

Your Randall KH120 is a Kirk Hammett signature with aggressive solid-state voicing that gets close to the ADA preamp's cold, tight saturation. The MT-2 is period-correct for early 90s Florida death metal - run it with moderate dist (7) to avoid fizz. Mid scoop on both amp and EQ recreates the Morrisound signature sound. Your Jackson humbuckers have similar output to the BC Rich stock pickups used on the original.

PRO TIPPalm mute directly over the bridge pickup for that percussive, machine-gun chug - the original tracking used extremely tight palm muting with the pick angled slightly to emphasize attack transients.
