From Camisa 10 Joga Bola Até na Chuva (2009). Camisa 10 Joga Bola Até na Chuva (Portuguese for "Shirt #10 Will Play Soccer Even in the Rain") is the ninth studio album by Brazilian rock band Charlie Brown Jr. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM900 4100 Dual Reverb, the rig we use for Charlie Brown Jr.'s other songs from Camisa 10 Joga Bola Até na Chuva, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in E♭ standard (E♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭), a half step below standard.

Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Viver Dias de Sol" 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.
