sometimes it was vocal and acoustic cut live and then doubled the sameway.
panned off one another.
not hard panned but for example, main voc would be leftish while main gtr would be rightish and vice versa for the dbls.
i can't exactly remember what we used at this point mic wise.
probably some mix of 67's a sounddelux km 84's km 56's.
we were always trying different things.
i remember sonora had an SM2 that sounded great on elliott.
you'd rummage thru the various studios mic locker and see what sounded good.
its been awhile and lots of records so my memory isn't exactly clear.

Thanks Rob. Well whatever you did it sounds fantastic, and its no exaggeration to say that the XO record is one of the reasons i decided to be in a band and make records for a living.

So in some ways i should be kinda pissed at you!!
Only kiddin, thanks for the response.
