Recording notes

From Quantos Possunt ad Satanitatem Trahunt (2009). Quantos Possunt ad Satanitatem Trahunt (Latin for "They draw as many as they can toward Satanism") is the eighth studio album by Norwegian black metal band Gorgoroth. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Horizon NT-II through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Gorgoroth's other songs from Quantos Possunt ad Satanitatem Trahunt, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in D standard (D G C F A D), a whole step below standard.

FAQ

Common Questions About the "Aneuthanasia" Tone

  1. What guitar did Gorgoroth use on "Aneuthanasia"?

    The guitar on "Aneuthanasia" (released 2009) isn't documented; the ESP E-II Horizon NT-II above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in D Standard (D G C F A D), so retune before you dial anything in.

  2. What amp settings does "Aneuthanasia" need?

    Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 4, Mid 3, Treble 8, Presence 7, Volume 8. 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.

  3. Can I play "Aneuthanasia" without the original gear?

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