Ugh, Greymachine bass sounds so damn good. I gotta get that album sometime...

Hartke HA-series heads with the graphic EQs set to be really nasty. With a SHO circuit in front.

1000 to 5000 hz is what causes that clanky brightness, in my experience.

For that type of synth bass stuff, nothing honestly beats a real synth - I pull out my Roland GR-55 and go to town.

Stupid expensive but I have it mostly for other things.

That said, it does phenomenal synth bass stuff (and you can really, really tweak the individual synth voices to make ugly so).

Also, for metallic and clangy, don't overlook an el-cheapo used EHX Frequency Analyzer. Set the blend relatively low, and then dial in the clang to taste.
