Back in the game!!!

It’s been over ten years but this upcoming Wednesday I’m getting together with a guitar player.
He wants to work primarily on metal originals which I’m fine with, however, metal is far from my expertise though I enjoy listening to it.
Any pointers ?
I’ll be taking my mexi jazz bass which I’ve tuned to BEAD along with an orange sp112 ( technically a 212 but isobaric), my terror bass 500 head , and probably my brimstone audio cross over distortion pedal.
Currently I’m working on a pedal board which has a boss compressor and a Darkglass bk3 along with a tricerachorus.

All I know of the guitar players rig is he’s using an 8 string ltd guitar.
I’m sure it will be a lot of trial and error getting down the right configuration.
I also have a second sp212.

I don't know anything at all about metal, so...welcome back in the game! Best of luck!

Just go and have fun the first time out. Your bass and rig are fine. And welcome back to jamming with other people!
