From Amorematico (2002). Amorematico is the third studio album by the Italian rock band Subsonica, released in 2002. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Roland JC-120 Jazz Chorus, the nearest rig we use for Subsonica's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the middle+bridge pickups together.

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