From In a World of Fear (2017). In a World of Fear is the sixth studio album by American instrumental progressive metal band Scale the Summit. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Strandberg Boden Original NX 6 through a Mesa Boogie Mark V, the nearest rig we use for Scale the Summit's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

Can I play "Cosmic Crown" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Cosmic Crown" 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.
