From Panic Fancy (2008). Panic Fancy is Japanese alternative rock (a.k.a. mixture rock) band Orange Range's ninth major album. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Marshall JCM800 2203, a common rig for this kind of sound, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

Can I play "Ikenai Taiyou" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Ikenai Taiyou" 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.
