From Hysterics (2008). Hysterics is the debut studio album by British mathcore band Rolo Tomassi, recorded in spring 2008 and released on 22 September 2008. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Jazzmaster through an Orange Rockerverb 100 MkIII, the nearest rig we use for Rolo Tomassi's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop C (C G C F A D).

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