FAQ

Common Questions About the Salve Tone

  1. What amp was Salve recorded with?

    Every one of the Salve 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 Salve?

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

    Across the 2 guitar tracks from Salve we've catalogued, the median is gain 6 (range 6–6), with bass 6, 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 Salve songs can I dial in here?

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