From Sakin Olmam Lazim (2005). Sakin Olmam Lazim is a 2005 studio album by Hayko Cepkin. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through a Marshall JCM2000 DSL100, the rig we use for Hayko Cepkin's other songs from Sakin Olmam Lazım, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

Can I play "Fırtınam" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Fırtınam" 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.
