Recording notes

From Post Human: Nex Gen (2024). Post Human: Nex Gen (stylised as POST HUMAN: NeX GEn) is the seventh studio album by the British rock band Bring Me the Horizon. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson Pro Series Signature Lee Malia LM-87 through a Neural DSP Quad Cortex, the rig we use for Bring Me the Horizon's other songs from Post Human: Nex Gen, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in a tuning that is not one of the standard names: D♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭, low to high.

  1. What guitar did Bring Me the Horizon use on "AmEN!"?

    The guitar on "AmEN!" (released 2024) isn't documented; the Jackson Pro Series Signature Lee Malia LM-87 above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in Custom tuning, so retune before you dial anything in.

    Settings for this sound: Gain 7.5, Bass 6, Mid 5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 6.5. 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.

  3. Can I play "AmEN!" without the original gear?

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "AmEN!" 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.
