Why these settings

The Spider IV Insane voice runs extremely hot, so gain is kept at 6 to prevent low-end mud on down-tuned Agile 7/8-string riffs. Mids are slightly cut to 4 while treble is boosted to 7 to replicate the surgical, scooped modern deathcore bite of Eddie Pickard's digital production. The Spider IV 120 lacks an external presence knob, so upper-harmonic attack is shaped directly via the Treble control and high-output bridge humbucker. Clean intro: switch to the Clean (Green) channel with volume rolled down slightly.

PRO TIPAnchor your palm mute firmly against the bridge saddles and pick with a stiff, heavy pick (1.5mm+) to get the mechanical, hyper-articulate attack required for fast technical deathcore chugs.
