Recording notes

From In Stasis (2022). In Stasis is the fourth studio album by British progressive metal band Monuments, released on 15 April 2022 by Century Media Records. The album's personnel list credits John Browne with guitar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an Aristides 070 through a Mesa Boogie JP-2C, the rig we use for Monuments' other songs from In Stasis, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
