In front of amp — classic Dimebag inverted-V scoop centered at 800Hz to push preamp bite
The MG30FX OD2 channel provides modern high gain, but lacks the extreme surgical scoop of Dimebag's rack Furman and Randall setup. Setting amp mids to 2 while aggressively cutting 800Hz and boosting highs on your MXR 6-Band EQ recreates his signature razor-sharp attack without turning flubby. The MG30FX faceplate lacks a presence knob, so treble is pushed to 8 on the amp alongside the pedal's 3.2kHz boost.
