FAQ

Common Questions About the Carnavas Tone

  1. What amp was Carnavas recorded with?

    Every one of the Carnavas tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Hot Rod DeVille (modern equivalent: Fender Hot Rod DeVille 410 IV). 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 Carnavas?

    The Sheraton (modern equivalent: Epiphone Sheraton II Pro) appears on the most Carnavas 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 Carnavas sound?

    Across the 5 guitar tracks from Carnavas we've catalogued, the median is gain 7 (range 7–7), with bass 5.5, mid 6, 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.

  4. What pedals are on Carnavas?

    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 Carnavas songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 5 tracks from Carnavas broken down, including "Lazy Eye" and "Rusted Wheel". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
