Recording notes

From A Pale White Dot (2026). A Pale White Dot is the eighth studio album by American progressive metal band Periphery, released on 15 May 2026 by 3DOT Recordings. The album's personnel list credits Misha Mansoor, Jake Bowen and Mark Holcomb with guitar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson Pro Series Misha Mansoor Juggernaut HT6 through a Fractal Audio Axe-FX III, the rig we use for Periphery's other songs from A Pale White Dot, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

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.
