Notes & Caveats
- No direct studio knob settings for 'Deliver Us' found; amp settings estimated based on Orange Dual Dark 100 typical metal usage and forum approximations.
- Pedal/effects info for this specific recording is not explicitly documented; effects inferred from genre, era, and audio.
- Guitar model confirmed by artist interviews and signature model history for this era.
- No evidence of time-based or modulation effects in the riff section; only high-gain rhythm tone is clearly audible.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. In Flames' 'Deliver Us' features a modern, tight, high-gain tone typical of late-2000s Swedish melodic death metal, with moderately scooped mids, tight bass, and clear, cutting highs. The band used ENGL and Mesa/Boogie amps with minimal reverb, dialing in high gain, moderate bass, slightly scooped mids, and boosted presence for clarity.
