Recording notes

From Sandık (2010). Sandık is a 2010 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 Sandık, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

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.
