FAQ

Common Questions About the Offramp Tone

  1. What amp was Offramp recorded with?

    Every one of the Offramp tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Roland GR-55 Guitar Synthesizer (a modern equivalent). 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 Offramp?

    The Gibson ES-175 appears on the most Offramp 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 Offramp sound?

    Across the 2 guitar tracks from Offramp we've catalogued, the median is gain 2 (range 2–2), with bass 5, mid 6, treble 5.5 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 Offramp?

    The Roland GR-300 Guitar Synthesizer 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 Offramp songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 2 tracks from Offramp broken down, including "Are You Going with Me?" and "James". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
