FAQ

Common Questions About the Staind Tone

  1. What amp was Staind recorded with?

    Every one of the Staind tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Diezel VH4. 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 Staind?

    The PRS Custom 24 appears on the most Staind 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 Staind sound?

    Across the 5 guitar tracks from Staind we've catalogued, the median is gain 5.5 (range 5.5–7), with bass 6, 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. How many Staind songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 5 tracks from Staind broken down, including "Not Again" and "Now". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
