firstly i usually play through a mesa triple rectifier and something terribly wrong has happened to it as of late, it is being repaired and my band is playing a show tomorrow night and the only thing i have to use is my old line 6 head(i know im gunna get flamed for that im sorry everyone) i hate to say this but i have to use that head tomorrow night as it is all i have until i get my triple rec back. is there anyway i can get a decent bloodbath or cannibal corpse esqe setting on it? i know how to get an old school heavy metal sound out of it but i need something suitable for death metal any help would be greatly appreciated

thank you

oh man... if its a spider... set it on Metal Green or Insane Green and keep the gain around 12-1 o clock. Then turn on the booster and the noisegate. It keeps it relatively crisp chunky without it getting fuzzed out... but chainsaw gain is impossible to get on one of those. I feel so sorry for you man. Having a line6 to back up the triple rec...

what about trying to rent some gear for the night? maybe they have equipment at some pro-sound music store. or, (this is reaching) call up some recording studios and see if they want to make an extra couple bucks and rent out their equipment. They aren't usually the most profitable of business operations, and might want to make a couple extra bucks. maybe call some of them and see if they would want to rent it to you.

good luck. hope the show goes well.

i tried that and you were right no chainsaw gain at all fuckin a... i knew the venue had marshall jcm900s so i just used that instead and i didnt have to pay for it
