01Zoom G1X Four: Compressor (RackComp)
Placed first in Zoom chain to smooth the clean arpeggio attack
02Zoom G1X Four: Analog Delay (Delay)
Set delay time to roughly 306ms to sync with the 98 BPM tempo
03Zoom G1X Four: Hall Reverb (Hall)
Provides the spacious ambient tail behind the intro riff
The Cort CM15R faceplate has only Bass and Treble controls (no dedicated Mid or Presence knobs), so Mid and Presence are omitted. The amp is kept on its dedicated Clean channel with low gain to prevent early solid-state clipping, leaving tone shaping, compression, and ambient delays to the Zoom G1X Four. Treble is pushed slightly to capture Paras Thakur's Strat chime on the intro arpeggios.
