Not Bellflur, of course, we've still got a couple eons left on that one.
No pics, but rundown on the past two days...
Vocals - "normal" vocals are all the TM2 through either the M76 or V276, depending... the 276 is sort of "harder" sounding and meaner, the 76 has the big bottom end and feels generally softer. Always through the StaLevel, usually sorta cranking. EQP1 inline all the time too, usually boosting a couple db at either 100 or 200db and a slight boost at 8 or 10db depending on the song. I keep the lowpass engaged on the TM2. Sounds nicer to me without the highs there, made up on the Pultec thingy. There were lots of non-normal vocals. One has a normal vocal panned hard left and the main is through the Copperfone. Another is awesome. Singer is up the stairwell singing into an intercom - the Bova Ball is at the bottom of the stairs, and in the kitchen, there's an SM7b on the other end of the intercom. Super mean.
backing vox were generally Beyer M88. A scream on one track is Dex holding the EV SpaceLazer 5000 into a cranked v276 into a cranked StaLevel.
Organ was done very simply these past two days - Beyer M201 over the Leslie into the V76. Last session with organ was KSM141s on the side horns through the 2108 with the TM2 out front into the 1566a driven into distortion.
Kazoos. Yeah, heck yea. We doubled them up because we're always pushing the envelope of modern recording. There's an acoustic kazoo into Beyer M201 while I'm playing the electric kazooka DI'd into a 76. Resisted temptation to put it through a wah-wah.
