Recording notes

From The Endless River (2014). The Endless River is the fifteenth and final studio album by the English rock band Pink Floyd, released in November 2014 by Parlophone Records in Europe and Columbia Records in the rest of the world. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender David Gilmour Signature Stratocaster through a Hiwatt DR103 Custom 100, the rig we use for Pink Floyd's other songs from The Endless River, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.

FAQ

Common Questions About the "Anisina" Tone

  1. What guitar did Pink Floyd use on "Anisina"?

    The guitar on "Anisina" (released 2014) isn't documented; the Fender David Gilmour Signature Stratocaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: neck pickup on the guitar. Tuned to standard (E A D G B E).

  2. What amp settings does "Anisina" need?

    Settings for this sound: Gain 5, Bass 5, Mid 6.5, Treble 6, Presence 5.5, Volume 6.5. 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.

  3. Can I play "Anisina" without the original gear?

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