Recording notes

From Cure (2024). Cure is the sixth studio album by American progressive metalcore band Erra, released on 5 April 2024 by UNFD. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson Pro Plus DK Modern MDK7 EverTune through a Neural DSP Quad Cortex, the rig we use for ERRA's other songs from Cure, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

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.
