FAQ

Common Questions About the Black Future Tone

  1. What amp was Black Future recorded with?

    Every one of the Black Future 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.

  2. What guitar was used on Black Future?

    The Jackson American Series Soloist SL3 (a modern equivalent) appears on the most Black Future 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 Black Future sound?

    Across the 3 guitar tracks from Black Future we've catalogued, the median is gain 7 (range 7–7), with bass 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 Black Future?

    The Boss NS-2 Noise Suppressor 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 Black Future songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 3 tracks from Black Future broken down, including "Black Future" and "Accelerating Universe". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
