![]() ![]() This goes back to what I talked about before: The vocals are the main focal point of a rock or pop recording. ![]() While you want the vocals to sound as natural as possible – as we talked about in the previous post – you also want them to sound polished and present and, again, slightly larger than life. Few areas of the mix are more critical when it comes to that final polish than the vocals. Sounds are slightly hyped to be clearer, larger, stronger than if you just put a microphone in front of the musicians and released that recording without further ado. Most successful recordings have a “larger than life” feel to them – in a way they are hyper-real rather than “just” real. ![]() Part of the reason is that while a recording is supposed to reflect real life (that’s why we talk about fidelity), it is also something more than real life. Then, through the magic.Īlthough ideally you want to do as little as possible with a recording after it’s done, chances are no matter how truthful the recording is, you still have some work to do. Universal Audio UAD-2 Neve 1073 Preamp EQ Plug-In: Unison starts with a clean, uncolored microphone preamp of UA's own design. Introduced in 1970, this hallowed class-A, transistor mic/line amp with EQ epitomizes the beautiful 'Neve sound,' with unparalleled clarity, sheen, and bite. These overtones were tweaked to perfection by Andrew Scheps himself, resulting in beautiful and authentic saturations.The Neve 1073 Channel Amplifier is easily the most revered preamp and EQ circuit ever designed. Using innovative procedures to model the acclaimed Marinair transformer, Waves has meticulously captured all the sonic characteristics of the 1073, including its harmonic distortion. And to top it all off, the Waves MS matrix has been added to let you apply different equalization to mid and side stereo content. Additionally, for the first time ever, a little-known 10kHz midrange band discovered in the original 1073 schematics but operable only on the rare 1078 channel strip has been modeled and incorporated into the plugin. ![]() The Waves Scheps 73 is a colorful 3-band EQ modeled on the classic 1073 console's EQ and mic preamp module and developed in association with world-renowned mixing engineer Andrew Scheps ( Adele, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Black Sabbath, Lana Del Ray, Metallica, Jay-Z.)Įmpowered by Waves cutting-edge technologies, the Scheps 73 EQ features interrelated bands that adhere to the 1073’s original specs and precisely emulate its behavior: a fixed 12kHz high-frequency band, switchable low and midrange bands with cut and boost controls, and an 18dB/octave high-pass filter. ![]()
