FAQ

Common Questions About the Silence Tone

  1. What amp was Silence recorded with?

    Every one of the Silence tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Peavey 6505+ (a modern equivalent). ToneMirror rewrites those settings for whatever amp you own - a different EQ curve and gain structure landing on the same recorded sound.

  2. What guitar was used on Silence?

    The ESP LTD EC-1000 appears on the most Silence tracks in our catalog. You don't need one - the settings are calibrated to the recorded tone, so they translate to the guitar you already have.

  3. What amp settings do I need for the Silence sound?

    Across the 2 guitar tracks from Silence we've catalogued, the median is gain 8 (range 8–8), with bass 6, mid 5, treble 6 on a 0–10 scale. That's the record's window rather than any one song's recipe - pick a track above for the exact knob positions it was recorded with.

  4. How many Silence songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 2 tracks from Silence broken down, including "Pitiful" and "Caught a Glimpse". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
