From Heroes of Mighty Magic (2016). Heroes of Mighty Magic is the second studio album by Swedish symphonic power metal band Twilight Force, released internationally on 26 August 2016. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through an Engl Powerball, the rig we use for Twilight Force's other songs from Heroes of Mighty Magic, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in E♭ standard (E♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭), a half step below standard.

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.
