mdiorio · 24th June 2005

Lately I've been listening to Beck's Sea Change CD, and really loving the vocal sound. Up front, but creamy and fat.

Does anybody know what equipment (mics, preamps, console, compressors, etc.) they used to get that sound? Ideally, I'd really like to know the exact gear they used if possible, not suggestions on how to emulate the sound.

I don't have the CD in front of me, so I can't tell you offhand where it was recorded (that would seem a logical starting point to try to pin down the equipment used). I'll try to post that info once I get my hands on the CD.

Thanks for any help!
