Common Questions About the The Act Tone
What amp was The Act recorded with?
Every one of the The Act tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Peavey 6505+. 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 The Act?
The ESP LTD EC-1000 appears on the most The Act 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 The Act sound?
Across the 2 guitar tracks from The Act we've catalogued, the median is gain 7 (range 7–7), with bass 6, mid 5.5, 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.
What pedals are on The Act?
The Ibanez Tube Screamer TS-9 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.
