From Effloresce (2018). Effloresce is the debut studio album by the American math rock band Covet, released on July 13, 2018, through Triple Crown Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Strandberg Boden Prog NX 7 through a Fractal Audio Axe-FX III, the rig we use for Covet's other songs from Effloresce, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup.
Common Questions About the "Howl" Tone
What guitar did Covet use on "Howl"?
The guitar on "Howl" (released 2018) isn't documented; the Strandberg Boden Prog NX 7 above gets the sound. Pickup selector: neck pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Howl" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 3, Bass 5, Mid 6, Treble 7, Presence 6, Volume 6. 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.
Can I play "Howl" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Howl" 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.
