01Occvlt Pedals Carion (Noise Gate/Boost)
Gate TIGHT for palm-mute clarity — essential for deathcore chug. Place before amp input. If Carion has boost function, engage for additional pick attack.
The Katana's Brown channel approximates the 5150-style saturation used in modern deathcore production. Your 8-string Harley Benton with its extended range demands LOWER bass (4) than you'd expect—prevents mud on the low F#. Mid scoop (3) gives the modern deathcore void, but not zeroed out to retain note definition. The Carion gate is critical; without tight gating, the low strings will rumble between hits and destroy the precision this genre requires.
