Recording notes

From Bronco (2022). Bronco is the second studio album by South African singer-songwriter Orville Peck, released on April 8, 2022, by Columbia Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gretsch G6136T White Falcon through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for Orville Peck's other songs from Bronco, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.

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