Hey there folks. Maybe I'm stuck in the past, but I think the recorded sound of the pop music from the seventies sounds pretty perfect. I'm curious what gear and recording techniques come to mind when you think of those recordings.
Recording-wise, early seventies, mid seventies, and late seventies were all quite different. As for the recordings you mentioned, those techniques would have been an extension of sixties recording: ...analog tape, no digital verb, good mic placement, not alot of mics on the drums. Equipment quickly changed during that decade, and imo, usually not for the better.
