Recording notes

From Beyond (2013). Beyond is the sixth studio album by Finnish melodic death metal band Omnium Gatherum and their second record released on Lifeforce Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson USA Select Randy Rhoads RR1 through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the rig we use for Omnium Gatherum's other songs from Beyond, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop C♯ (C♯ G♯ C♯ F♯ A♯ D♯), a half step below drop C.

FAQ

Common Questions About the "Living in Me" Tone

  1. What guitar did Omnium Gatherum use on "Living in Me"?

    The guitar on "Living in Me" (released 2013) isn't documented; the Jackson USA Select Randy Rhoads RR1 above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in Drop C♯ (C♯ G♯ C♯ F♯ A♯ D♯), so retune before you dial anything in.

  2. What amp settings does "Living in Me" need?

    Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 6, Mid 5, Treble 6, Presence 7, Volume 8. Each value is on the standard 0–10 amp scale; match them on your amp first, then nudge to taste. ToneMirror can translate these positions for whatever amp you actually own.

  3. Can I play "Living in Me" without the original gear?

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