Common Questions About the Midian Tone
What amp was Midian recorded with?
Every one of the Midian tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier. ToneMirror rewrites those settings for whatever amp you own - a different EQ curve and gain structure landing on the same recorded sound.
What guitar was used on Midian?
The ESP LTD EC-1000 (a modern equivalent) appears on the most Midian 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.
What amp settings do I need for the Midian sound?
Across the 8 guitar tracks from Midian we've catalogued, the median is gain 8 (range 8–8), with bass 5.5, mid 4.5, 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.
What pedals are on Midian?
The Boss DS-1 shows up on the most tracks here. Every track breakdown lists that song's full signal chain in order, and the match engine substitutes what you own for what you don't.
