From Roque Marciano (2004). Roque Marciano (English: Martian Rock) is the second album by Brazilian rock band Detonautas Roque Clube, released on April 23, 2004 by WEA Music. 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 Detonautas' other songs from Roque Marciano, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck+bridge pickups together.

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