Common Questions About the Against Tone
What amp was Against recorded with?
Every one of the Against tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier. ToneMirror rewrites those settings for whatever amp you own - a different EQ curve and gain structure landing on the same recorded sound.
What guitar was used on Against?
The ESP LTD EC-1000 (a modern equivalent) appears on the most Against 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.
What amp settings do I need for the Against sound?
Across the 4 guitar tracks from Against we've catalogued, the median is gain 8.5 (range 8.5–8.5), with bass 7, mid 5, treble 6 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.
How many Against songs can I dial in here?
ToneMirror has 4 tracks from Against broken down, including "Choke" and "Old Earth". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
