so sorry guys ... my rig has been fucked up for the last week. I've spent the entire time trying to fix all of my problems. There's only 1 more thing to fix now and that's re-wiring the battery slot in my uber metal.
Sorry for the wait guys, once my pedal is done I'll give you the best I can.
I feel like an ass. I said I'd do it and every piece of equipment I had just decided to fuck itself.

Well my Uber Metal is screwed until I get a replacement, but with the settings left on it I think I can come up witha general synopsis.
Gain - You'll always want it somewhere between 8 and 10 because if you're playing Trivium stuff you'llwant the balls to the wall tone they have.
Drive - It's generally the same as gain
Presence - I don't have a presence control on my rig, but when you plug in the rest of the settings you should be able to find an appropriate level
Resonence - Again don't have, but jusdging mby the definition of the word, you'll want to keep it to a mid or high level.
Master - Pretty much just volume ...
Reverb - Keep really low 3 at the most, you don't want a sound like you're playing in a large auditorium. Too much echo type noise.
Here's for the real Important stuff :wink:
High/Treble - You'll want this in a range of 7-9, you get a little farther away from the "chugga chugga" sound as it goes higher.
Mids/Middle - Keep this in the middle . Generally between 4 and 6. Mids make a big difference in your tone, so try and play with them a little once you have your high's and low's set.
Low/Bass - If you want that balls to the wall thumpy metal tone, you'll want these fairly high. 8 to 10 is usually a good range.

My personal setting are ...
AMP: (Through clean to pedal)
Low: 9
Mid: 5.5 ish
High: 7.5 ish
Uber Metal:
Scoop (don't know if you guys have this): 6
Gain: 10
Bass: 10
Mid: 4
Treble: 8
---
And there's my long ass post about general tone. Ihope it helped. If you don't get the sound you want dick around with the low mids and highs. Mostly the mids, they tend to have a big effect on the sound of your whole rig. Hope this helped! And if it's not enough of an explanation, give Glenn or Northern_Wrath a PM they'll be happy to blow you away with Knowledge

unless you have thier guitars, thier amps and thier hands you wont get thier tone. rofl. they use marshall jcm 2000's i know that. if any of you guys have line6 gear try customtone.com and search for 'trivium'. if you got a ibanez tube sreamer throw that in the signal chain cuz it will saturate the amp a lot more. keep the drive on it down, and turn the level to about 75%. and you dont need a lot of gain, too much muds up your tone and makes it less clear. personally i use a podxt, the jmp-1 model, with the tube screamer, and the gain is about 5. and i have emg 81-7 pups. i get a pretty sick ...and justice for all tone goin. with that nice high end meshuggah djent thing. woohooo
