FAQ

Common Questions About the Under the Influence Tone

  1. What amp was Under the Influence recorded with?

    Every one of the Under the Influence 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 Under the Influence?

    The ESP LTD EC-1000 (a modern equivalent) appears on the most Under the Influence 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 Under the Influence sound?

    Across the 5 guitar tracks from Under the Influence we've catalogued, the median is gain 7 (range 7–7), with bass 5, mid 6, treble 7.5 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 Under the Influence songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 5 tracks from Under the Influence broken down, including "Hello from the Gutter" and "Drunken Wisdom". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
