FAQ

Common Questions About the Aoxomoxoa Tone

  1. What amp was Aoxomoxoa recorded with?

    Every one of the Aoxomoxoa tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Twin Reverb (modern equivalent: Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue). 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 Aoxomoxoa?

    The Gibson SG Standard appears on the most Aoxomoxoa 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 Aoxomoxoa sound?

    Across the 4 guitar tracks from Aoxomoxoa we've catalogued, the median is gain 4 (range 3.5–4), with bass 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.

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

    ToneMirror has 4 tracks from Aoxomoxoa broken down, including "China Cat Sunflower" and "St. Stephen". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
