Recording notes

From Dopethrone (2000). Dopethrone is the third studio album by English band Electric Wizard, released on 25 September 2000 by Rise Above Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson SG Standard through an Orange OR120 (Vintage), the rig we use for Electric Wizard's other songs from Dopethrone, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup.

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