Recording notes

From 12 Memories (2003). 12 Memories is the fourth studio album from Scottish alternative rock band Travis. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Vox AC30HW2X Hand-Wired, the rig we use for Travis' other songs from 12 Memories, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.

  3. Can I play "Love Will Come Through" without the original gear?

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Love Will Come Through" 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.
