Notes & Caveats
- No official rig rundown or studio notes for 'Over Each Other' riff section; all gear and settings are inferred from forum discussions, typical Linkin Park studio practices, and audible tone.
- No direct evidence of pedal use or specific amp model for this song; Fractal Axe-FX III is assumed based on recent Linkin Park studio/live practices.
- No numeric amp settings found; settings estimated based on genre, era, and typical Linkin Park high-gain rhythm tones.
- Pickup choice inferred from tone and typical Linkin Park rhythm practices.
- No evidence of analog pedals or effects; all effects likely from digital modeling.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. Linkin Park's riff tones from this era are tight, modern, and high-gain, with a slightly scooped midrange, controlled bass for clarity, and moderate treble/presence for articulation. Reverb is minimal to keep the sound punchy and focused in the mix, consistent with their nu-metal production style.
