From Grey Heavens (2016). Grey Heavens is the seventh studio album by Finnish melodic death metal band Omnium Gatherum. 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 Grey Heavens, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in C♯ standard (C♯ F♯ B E G♯ C♯), three half steps below standard.
Common Questions About the "Ophidian Sunrise" Tone
What guitar did Omnium Gatherum use on "Ophidian Sunrise"?
The guitar on "Ophidian Sunrise" (released 2016) 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 C♯ Standard (C♯ F♯ B E G♯ C♯), so retune before you dial anything in.
What amp settings does "Ophidian Sunrise" 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.
Can I play "Ophidian Sunrise" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Ophidian Sunrise" 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.
