Why these settings

The Vypyr X1's 6505 model is the closest match to the Mesa Rectifier's tight, aggressive voicing. Your GIO's INF humbuckers are lower output than the EMG actives on the original, so gain stays at 8 to compensate — the 6505 model saturates hard enough. Mids scooped to 4 replicates Rammstein's industrial character; presence at 6 adds the bite without harshness. Reverb is zero — the original is bone dry.

PRO TIPPalm mute HARD directly over the bridge saddles for that percussive 'chunk' sound — Rammstein's riff attack is as much about right-hand technique and muting precision as it is about gain. Pick with the thick part of the pick near the bridge for maximum tightness.
