Need some help tweaking my Tech21 Leeds

Sign in to disble this ad
I've always been a huge fan of Joy Division and their bass player, Peter Hook. I love his gritty Hiwatt tone and I'd like to emulate it with my Leeds pedal. I'd like to get close to his tone in the song New Dawn Fades (can't link a Youtube video because I'm writing this on an iPad). Any suggested settings I should try?

Yeah I'm sure that the key is tweaking the mids, but I'm not quite getting there. My current settings are bass slightly boosted, veeeery light mid boost and veeeeery slight treble cut. Character at 3 o'clock. If the controls weren't so interactive and the knobs weren't so sensitive this would be easier

Edit: forgot about the drive. I have it set a bit past 3. Speaker sim disengaged.
