Why these settings

The Behringer OD100 distortion acts as the main gain engine into the amp's clean channel to avoid the muddy, loose breakup of the small solid-state practice amp. Because the S-style single-coil bridge pickup lacks the low-end heft and output of Kruspe's EMG 81 humbuckers, the OD100 drive is pushed high while amp mids are scooped to replicate the signature Rectifier wall-of-sound. Keep the amp's low end at 6 to prevent the small speaker from flubbing out during heavy palm mutes.

PRO TIPAnchor the fleshy edge of your picking hand directly over the bridge saddles to execute ultra-tight, deadened palm mutes, and pick aggressively with heavy downstrokes to mimic the industrial percussive attack.
