Recording notes

From Errorzone (2018). Errorzone is the debut studio album by American metalcore band Vein, which was released on June 22, 2018, through Closed Casket Activities. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson Pro Plus Series Soloist SLA3 through a Peavey 6505+, the rig we use for Vein.fm's other songs from Errorzone, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop C (C G C F A D).

    The guitar on "Rebirth Protocol" (released 2018) isn't documented; the Jackson Pro Plus Series Soloist SLA3 above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in Drop C (C G C F A D), so retune before you dial anything in.

    Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 6, Mid 4.5, Treble 6.5, Presence 7, 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.

  3. Can I play "Rebirth Protocol" without the original gear?

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