Recording notes

From Dominion (2022). Dominion is the eleventh studio album by American Christian rock band Skillet. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the rig we use for Skillet's other songs from Dominion, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

  1. What guitar did Skillet use on "Beyond Incredible"?

    Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 6, Mid 4.5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6.5, Volume 7. 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 "Beyond Incredible" without the original gear?

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