Common Questions About the You in Reverse Tone

  1. What amp was You in Reverse recorded with?

    Every one of the You in Reverse tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Marshall JCM800 2203. 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 You in Reverse?

    The Stratocaster (modern equivalent: Fender American Professional II Stratocaster) appears on the most You in Reverse 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 You in Reverse sound?

    Across the 5 guitar tracks from You in Reverse we've catalogued, the median is gain 7 (range 7–7), with bass 5.5, mid 6, treble 6.5 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.
