Recording notes

From Free Somehow (2008). Free Somehow is the tenth studio album by the Athens, Georgia-based band Widespread Panic, released on February 12, 2008 by Widespread. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Standard Stratocaster through a Fender Silverface Twin Reverb, the nearest rig we use for Widespread Panic's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup.

    The guitar on "Up All Night" (released 2008) isn't documented; the Fender Standard Stratocaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.

    Settings for this sound: Gain 3, Bass 5, Mid 5, Treble 6, Presence 5, Volume 6. 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 "Up All Night" without the original gear?

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