The Axe-Fx is central to the modern Periphery sound — Mansoor uses it for both recording and live performance, running custom amp models (often Friedman or Diezel-based) for the djent rhythm tone. The digital precision of the Axe-Fx suits the perfectly consistent palm mutes required by djent.

Real amp used for specific recordings when the Axe-Fx simulation needs the character of a real power amp and speaker. The VH4's articulate, tight high-gain suits extended-range playing.
