Recording notes

From 11 Short Stories of Pain & Glory (2017). 11 Short Stories of Pain & Glory is the ninth studio album by American band Dropkick Murphys, released on January 6, 2017 by Born & Bred Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Dropkick Murphys' other songs from 11 Short Stories of Pain & Glory, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

    The guitar on "Until the Next Time" (released 2017) isn't documented; the Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.

  3. Can I play "Until the Next Time" without the original gear?

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Until the Next Time" 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.
