Recording notes

From Western sous la neige (2002). Western sous la neige is the fourth studio album by Dionysos, a French rock band, released 5 March 2002 and produced by Steve Albini. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue, a common rig for this kind of sound, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

  3. Can I play "Song for Jedi" without the original gear?

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Song for Jedi" 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.
