Notes

Studio recording, 2011 album 'The Discovery'. Lee McKinney used Axe-Fx Ultra for amp/cab/effects, powered by ENGL Powerball for tone shaping. Orange PPC112 cabinet likely used for monitoring. Settings below are from forum post referencing Born of Osiris studio tones, not live. Pickup and guitar model inferred from artist's gear in this era.

Difficulty

The riff section of 'Machine' requires advanced right-hand technique for fast, tight palm-muted chugs, precise alternate picking, and complex rhythm patterns on a 7-string guitar. The technical demands and speed place it at a high difficulty level.
