Recording notes

From No Way to Treat an Animal (2017). No Way to Treat an Animal is the debut extended play (EP) by Australian indie rock band Spacey Jane, released independently on 17 November 2017. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Vintage '65 Jaguar through a Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue, the nearest rig we use for Spacey Jane's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.

FAQ

Common Questions About the "Feeding the Family" Tone

  1. What guitar did Spacey Jane use on "Feeding the Family"?

    The guitar on "Feeding the Family" (released 2017) isn't documented; the Fender American Vintage '65 Jaguar 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 "Feeding the Family" need?

    Settings for this sound: Gain 4, Bass 4.5, Mid 5.5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 4.5. 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 "Feeding the Family" without the original gear?

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