Why these settings

The original heavy rhythm sound blends a mid-focused Mark IIC+ and a Marshall Plexi. To achieve that focused bite on a Dual Rectifier—which naturally scoops mids and has a looser low end—push the midrange to 6, keep the bass tight at 4, and use the Modern mode on Channel 3 for immediate transient response with active EMG pickups.

PRO TIPMute firmly right at the bridge saddle on the heavy chug patterns; the Dual Rectifier's massive low end requires deliberate right-hand palm damping to retain Ghost's tight, studio-compressed tracking.
