FAQ

Common Questions About the The Aristocrats Tone

  1. What amp was The Aristocrats recorded with?

    Every one of the The Aristocrats tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Cornford MK50H. 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 The Aristocrats?

    The Charvel Guthrie Govan Signature MJ San Dimas SD24 CM (a modern equivalent) appears on the most The Aristocrats 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 The Aristocrats sound?

    Across the 5 guitar tracks from The Aristocrats we've catalogued, the median is gain 6 (range 3–6), with bass 5, mid 7, 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 The Aristocrats?

    The MXR Carbon Copy Analog Delay 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.
