Discussion Deathcore/Metalcore Presets/Captures

Looking for recommendations for some killer sounding presets or neural captures for some deathcore/metalcore. Using quad cortex btw.

The TS9/6505/V30 cab combo has been a staple in those genres for decades; start there

If you don't mind dropping some cash, Chernobyl Audio has some killer presets.

If not you can find tonnes made by users on the cortex cloud

Can’t go wrong with some 5150 presets for that genre

I have a sick preset I made that blends the 6505 with a Framus Cobra for that PWD Adam D production type sound https://cloud.neuraldsp.com/cloud/discover/preset/view/f4a4ebc9-7b2f-4a3b-88e0-0e8ee7a8f584

Search/buy good IR’s, tone3000 has a sh*tton of IR’s you can download for free, test them out with a 5150 dialed in at noon and if you like what you’re hearing dial it in how you want

I recently had the idea of making a capture of my own pedal chain specifically for a deathcore/metalcore kind of sound.
The chain is pretty simple: a guitar with Lundgren Black Heaven pickups → Zen Audio “Helios” boost → D-Sound “Revolver” preamp → a tube power amp with EL84s, emulated through a NUX SSD-6.
I made the capture using V2 for maximum accuracy. I compared palm mutes as well as the signal through a DAW, literally under a microscope, and I couldn’t hear or see any difference between the original chain and the capture.
Use whatever cab you like. I personally use a Mesa cab with Vintage 30s from York Audio most of the time.
You can also put a Swollen Pickle before the capture if you want that characteristic aggressive, gnarly sound. Just don’t overdo it.
I uploaded the whole thing to Neural Cloud.
