Why these settings

The Laney LX35R has a warm, British-voiced solid-state drive stage and no presence control on its faceplate. To replicate the Marshall JMP-1 preamp's aggressive bite on Drop C#, pull the mid knob down to 3 to achieve the signature 90s nu-metal scoop while keeping bass at 7 for bottom-end punch without flub. Gain is set to 7 to maintain note tracking and tight palm-muting attack without turning fizzy.

PRO TIPTune your bottom string down to Drop C# (Db-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb) and use heavy, locked-wrist downstrokes right next to the bridge saddles for the ultra-dry, percussive chug.
