From L'Enfant Sauvage (2012). L'Enfant sauvage is the fifth studio album and major label debut by French heavy metal band Gojira. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Charvel Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 2 Joe Duplantier Signature through Diezel Herbert, the nearest rig to the one documented for Gojira, stands in. Set the amp to a moderate crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in Drop C (C G C F A D).

The guitar on "The Wild Healer" (released 2012) isn't documented; the Charvel Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 2 Joe Duplantier Signature above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in Drop C (C G C F A D), so retune before you dial anything in.

Settings for this sound: Gain 4, Bass 5.5, Mid 6, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 6.5. Each value is on the standard 0–10 amp scale; match them on your amp first, then nudge to taste. ToneMirror can translate these positions for whatever amp you actually own.
Can I play "The Wild Healer" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "The Wild Healer" 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.
