Recording notes

From Spirit of the Forest (2003). Spirit of the Forest is the debut studio album by Finnish folk metal band Korpiklaani. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the nearest rig we use for Korpiklaani's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

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