In this article, the following is written about Deftness and their use of Fractal Audio Systems:

"But regarding the recording process, the real game changer was Fractal Audio Systems Axe-FX II Preamp FX Processor.

'The Deftones have always had a futuristic element to their sound, but it’s not as prevalent on the last record,' Rasculinecz says. '[This time] we started with brand-new sounds from Fractal Audio, which was a big sonic shift for the band. It’s the first record where Stephen hasn’t used the same amp and cab as on every record before. That alone lent itself to creating a fresh take on the music. Fractal opened up a whole new world of sonic elements that we didn’t have on the last record and it really took Stephen and Sergio out of the box.'"
