Why these settings

The 90S ROCK model on your LT25 is based on a Mesa Dual Rectifier — the exact amp Hatebreed used. The Rectifier is naturally mid-scooped, so mid stays at 4 to match the original's 5 (your amp's model already scoops). Bass raised to 7 because the LT25's 10-inch speaker lacks the low-end thump of a 4x12 cab. Your Ibanez S521 has a humbucker in the bridge like the original ESP, so no pickup compensation needed.

PRO TIPTune to Drop D before dialing in — this tone's percussive chug lives in that low D string attack. Palm-mute hard and pick closer to the bridge for maximum chunk.
