Erik wrote on Fri, 28 May 2004 01:14 I'll toss out one concept.  Instead of using a mult, how about using two microphones.  On a snare.  Imagine that. Ohhhh, so you can use a Fairchild in lat/vert mode to see if things are in phase. That was my first guess, but it seemed too obvious to justify all the dramatics.

a 670 used as a phase meter ...

And I though it was expensive

I love the drum sounds on Matthew Sweet's "100% Fun", which was producted by Brendon O'Brien with Nick DiDia engineering.  I'd love to know how they got those... of course, the drummers they were using didn't hurt.

I'm glad nick is finally getting his due, supah talent, one of the last great in house engineers. Of course he's freelance now...

I think the drum sound on 100% fun was all about late night twinkie binges in the NC mountains. I digress... Yeah, it is all about the drummer...

<And on a very related note, anyone know the easiest way to tell who engineered a given Beatles recording?>

I am kinda curious about this - does anyone know, is it the same as a previous poster mentioned eg: Geoff Emerick signature - drums squashed through a 660..
?
Thanks,

2 buss limiting prior to the EMI transistor console:

Maybe 2 x mono Telefunken U73 compressor / limiters?

The counterpart to the V76 / V72 modules they were probably using in the EMI REDD console..?

Or Fairchild 660 on one ch / Altec 436 on the other..



Looking at studio photos showing those 2 in the studio racks.
