Dimebag's tone relies on extreme solid-state bite and high gain from pre-amp parametric EQ boosts. Because you own the Boss DS-1, it serves as the dedicated high-gain distortion stage; per double-gain prevention, the Orange Crush 12 is kept on its clean channel with amp gain dialed down to 2. Orange amps naturally have dark, thick lower-mids, so treble is boosted on both the DS-1 and the amp while mids are scooped to emulate the aggressive Randall solid-state edge on a 6-inch speaker.
