Recording notes

From Eat Me, Drink Me (2007). Eat Me, Drink Me is the sixth studio album by American rock band Marilyn Manson. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the rig we use for Marilyn Manson's other songs from Eat Me, Drink Me, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-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 "Are You the Rabbit?" 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.
