From Vaxis – Act I: The Unheavenly Creatures (2018). Vaxis – Act I: The Unheavenly Creatures is the ninth studio album by American progressive rock band Coheed and Cambria. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Explorer through a Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier, the nearest rig we use for Coheed and Cambria's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

Can I play "All on Fire" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "All on Fire" 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.
