From The Tide and Its Takers (2008). The Tide and Its Takers is the fourth studio album by American metalcore band 36 Crazyfists. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Marshall JCM2000 DSL100, the nearest rig we use for 36 Crazyfists' other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop C (C G C F A D).

Settings for this sound: Gain 4, Bass 6, Mid 5, Treble 6, Presence 5, Volume 6. Each value is on the standard 0–10 amp scale; match them on your amp first, then nudge to taste. ToneMirror can translate these positions for whatever amp you actually own.
Can I play "The All Night Lights" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "The All Night Lights" tone on a Katana, a Helix, a tube combo, or anything else. The translation accounts for EQ curve, gain structure, and pickup type so the result actually sounds like the record, not just the same knob numbers on different gear.
