Recording notes

From Roll with the Punches (2025). Roll with the Punches is the sixteenth studio album by the Canadian singer-songwriter Bryan Adams, released on 29 August 2025, on Adams' own Bad Records record label. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Bryan Adams' other songs from Roll with the Punches, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Never Ever Let You Go" 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.
