FAQ

Common Questions About the XTRMNTR Tone

  1. What amp was XTRMNTR recorded with?

    Every one of the XTRMNTR tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead 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 XTRMNTR?

    The Les Paul (modern equivalent: Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s) appears on the most XTRMNTR 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 XTRMNTR sound?

    Across the 4 guitar tracks from XTRMNTR we've catalogued, the median is gain 8 (range 8–8), with bass 5.5, 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. What pedals are on XTRMNTR?

    The Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi (NYC) 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 XTRMNTR songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 4 tracks from XTRMNTR broken down, including "Swastika Eyes" and "Accelerator". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
