Common Questions About the Virtue Tone
What amp was Virtue recorded with?
Every one of the Virtue tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Marshall JCM800 2203. 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 Virtue?
The Jazzmaster (modern equivalent: Fender American Professional II Jazzmaster) appears on the most Virtue 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 Virtue sound?
Across the 4 guitar tracks from Virtue we've catalogued, the median is gain 5 (range 5–5), with bass 5, mid 5.5, treble 5.5 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 Virtue?
The MXR Phase 90 shows up on the most tracks here, alongside the Boss DD-3 Digital Delay. 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.
How many Virtue songs can I dial in here?
ToneMirror has 4 tracks from Virtue broken down, including "Pink Ocean" and "Permanent High School". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
