Cyberdjent Dark - for EMG81 .012-.060 tuned to C

[DonPetersen]

originally a preset that mimicked the Cyberdrive pedal (basically a distortion with a wah as tone stack).

I lowered the gain in the pedal, turned down mix to get some of those nice transients and exchanged the Twin amp for a Recto Orange, Recto2 cab with R121

The sound is 'narrower' than some metal players strive for, but works exceptionally well in an arrangement.

I set the gate pretty aggressively and fast, to get those staccatos.

if you dl'ed this, you might want to double check the gate settings, they didn't save properly.

threshold should be -50 (noon), ratio 2-2.5, release 50ms and attack 5ms (half the defaults)
