From We Are the Apocalypse (2022). We Are the Apocalypse is the seventh studio album by Swedish black metal band Dark Funeral. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD Arrow-1000 through an EVH 5150III 100W, the rig we use for Dark Funeral's other songs from We Are the Apocalypse, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-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.

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