Recording notes

From Phil Wickham (2006). Phil Wickham is the first commercial album recorded by American Christian and worship music singer Phil Wickham, released on April 25, 2006, by INO Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Player Telecaster through a Morgan AC20 Deluxe, the nearest rig we use for Phil Wickham's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup.

    The guitar on "Divine Romance" (released 2006) isn't documented; the Fender Player Telecaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: neck pickup on the guitar.

  3. Can I play "Divine Romance" without the original gear?

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