Guitar Distortion Settings
Distortion should change the consonants of a note, not erase the word. This FUKKAUDIO take interprets the style as a playable starting point focused on feel, texture, and response.
Prompt
grunge distortion
Tone Character
Use enough distortion for the part to feel energized and dense, though keep enough headroom in the attack for articulation to survive. The lows should stay fenced in, the mids should carry the aggression, and the highs should cut without dissolving into fizz. Sustain should feel enhanced and more forceful, not flattened into one static texture.
How to Approach the Sound
Listen for identity before listening for size. If the sound gets heavier but less readable, trim bass and reduce saturation before touching treble. When the top turns abrasive in a cheap way, restore some center instead of muting the whole edge. If the patch feels impressive on one note and useless in a riff, the settings still need discipline.
Effects and Texture
Low. A little less distortion often reveals more power.
FAQ
Where should the aggression usually live?
In the mids and attack, not in endless low-end blur.
What is the main warning sign?
