Recording notes

From Warp Speed Warriors (2024). Warp Speed Warriors is a 2024 studio album by DragonForce. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an Ibanez RG550 Genesis through an Engl Powerball II, the rig we use for DragonForce's other songs from Warp Speed Warriors, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
