Notes & Caveats
- No explicit amp model or settings found in sources; amp and settings estimated based on genre, era, and typical djent/modern metal tones.
- Pedal/effects models not confirmed for this recording; effects chain inferred from genre conventions and forum discussions.
- No explicit pickup selector position stated, but bridge pickup is standard for djent rhythm and matches tone in playthrough.
- No studio documentation or official rig rundown for this specific song/recording.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. Olly Steele's 'Tyed' riff features a modern djent/progressive metal tone: high gain for tight palm mutes and clarity, controlled bass for punch without flub, mids set neutral to slightly forward for note definition, and treble/presence boosted for articulation. Reverb is minimal for a dry, percussive attack typical of this genre and artist.
