FAQ

Common Questions About the Kadavar Tone

  1. What amp was Kadavar recorded with?

    Every one of the Kadavar tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Hiwatt DR504 Custom 50. 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 Kadavar?

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

    Across the 2 guitar tracks from Kadavar we've catalogued, the median is gain 6.5 (range 6.5–6.5), with bass 6, mid 5.5, treble 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. What pedals are on Kadavar?

    The ProCo Rat 2 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.

  5. How many Kadavar songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 2 tracks from Kadavar broken down, including "Black Sun" and "Purple Sage". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
