Recording notes

From Into the Mirror Black (1990). Into the Mirror Black is the second studio album by the band Sanctuary, released on February 27, 1990. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Flying V through a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue, the rig we use for Sanctuary's other songs from Into the Mirror Black, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

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