Why these settings

The NUX Mighty LITE BT MKII lacks physical mid and presence knobs on its top faceplate (bass/treble only on hardware, full EQ in the app), so onboard EQ is dialed via bass and treble while the mid-cut is set within the Fireman/Uber amp model. The TS9 acts strictly as a front-end tighten boost with drive low and level cranked to cut muddy sub-bass before the amp modeler's high-gain stage. Keep the single-coil tele-style bridge pickup tone wide open to mimic the sharp attack of high-output death metal humbuckers.

PRO TIPAggressive, heavy palm-muting right against the bridge saddles with a rigid pick (1.5mm+) is crucial to achieve the percussive, machine-gun chug attack inherent to early 2000s Ohio slam.
