From Searching for Solace (2024). Searching for Solace is the sixth album by American metalcore band The Ghost Inside. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through an EVH 5150III 100W EL34 Head, the nearest rig we use for The Ghost Inside's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop D.

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