Made an effect rack (max4live or suite required) that's incredibly close to the guitar sound that mk.gee uses! Just a heads up, you will have to do some sort of casette-style clipping going into this rack, Ableton doesn't have an emulation of it built in. It does add fuzz and crushing on top of that when louder notes are played, but you'll definitely want to get it a bit trashy first. I also recommend replacing the compressor in the "dry+crush" group chain with one that suits your specific guitar well. Cheers!

To get it set up, play with the threshold macro (think of it as a noise gate) so that the rack's effects are triggered when you play the guitar with more force, and aren't triggered when you play gently

Another general recommendation I'll make is to have a fairly bright guitar tone going into this, it's real easy for the bass and mud to build up quickly considering how much distortion gets added at times
