From False Idol (2017). False Idol is the sixth studio album by American metalcore band Veil of Maya, released on October 20, 2017, through Sumerian Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an Ibanez RG550 Genesis through a Peavey 6505+, the nearest rig we use for Veil of Maya's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop B (B F♯ B E G♯ C♯).

What guitar did Veil of Maya use on "Echo Chamber"?
The guitar on "Echo Chamber" (released 2017) isn't documented; the Ibanez RG550 Genesis above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in Drop B (B F♯ B E G♯ C♯), so retune before you dial anything in.

Settings for this sound: Gain 8.5, Bass 6, Mid 5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6.5, Volume 7. 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.
Can I play "Echo Chamber" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Echo Chamber" 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.
