Common Questions About the Babylon Tone
What amp was Babylon recorded with?
Every one of the Babylon 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 Babylon?
The Charvel Pro-Mod So-Cal Style 1 HH FR (a modern equivalent) appears on the most Babylon 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 Babylon sound?
Across the 3 guitar tracks from Babylon we've catalogued, the median is gain 7.5 (range 7.5–7.5), with bass 5.5, mid 6, 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.
How many Babylon songs can I dial in here?
ToneMirror has 3 tracks from Babylon broken down, including "Crazy" and "Into the Fire". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
