Recording notes

From This Type of Thinking (Could Do Us In) (2004). This Type of Thinking (Could Do Us In) is the third studio album by the American rock band Chevelle. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a PRS Custom 24 through a Mesa Boogie Mark IV, the rig we use for Chevelle's other songs from This Type of Thinking (Could Do Us In), stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop B (B F♯ B E G♯ C♯).

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Another Know It All" 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.
