Notes & Caveats

  • ⚠️No official rig rundown or direct interview for this specific live recording; gear and settings are inferred from Helix patch sharing and common Elevation Worship live setups.
  • ⚠️No numeric amp settings found; values estimated based on typical Helix/AC30/Matchless worship presets and genre/era conventions.
  • ⚠️Pedal models are inferred from common worship pedalboards and audible effects; no photo or video evidence for this exact performance.
  • ⚠️Pickup choice inferred from typical solo tone and Telecaster usage in Elevation Worship live videos.
  • ⚠️If more precise information becomes available (e.g., official rig rundown, pedalboard photo from this show), update accordingly.
  • ⚠️Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. Elevation Worship's live tones favor edge-of-breakup to light crunch with mid-forward clarity, balanced lows, and bright but not harsh highs. The solo section is articulate and ambient, matching genre conventions and their typical use of moderate amp reverb and presence for live worship settings.
