you're basically after wave mapping/shaping.
yeaahhhh, Trash. Forgot all about that plugin. Thanks. I used Trash 1 before with crap results, probably misused it badly. I'll try 2, see if I can mix it with recorded guitars and come up with that digital type tone.

Super tight editing like SoundGuyDave said. It also helps if you have the skills to play and lay down ultra tight performances. Some of the modern metal guys are more talented than some people might want to admit.
yeah I've done that, super tight takes and editing ...but with very mediocre results. You do need the actual sound to be deep and gorgeous.
