| Lindsey Buckingham... Kevin Just wondering if you'd care to share any thoughts on working with Lindsey Buckingham. In addition to being an outstanding songwriter and producer, I've always thought he was one of the most underrated guitarists in popular music. Warm Regards, Mark Cattano Magneto Studios www.heedmusic.com www.myspace.com/markcattano |

| Mark, Sofa and Kingugly, Lindsey is one of those rare gems, so talented , musical , driven and depending on who you talk too,obsessive ! I got brought in to mostly mix, Warners were very keen to get the album completed and the powers that be felt that a little nudge was needed. From my perspective, genius comes when the mood strikes and sometimes you have to wait. The majority of the album was recorded at his home studio with Richard Dashut sharing the production and engineering(?) duties. So I cannot really speak to their setup as I never really saw it. I choose Ocean Way studio 2 (Neve 8038) to mix and off we went. If my memory serves me correctly, it was recorded on a Sony 3348. The mixes tended to evolve over a number of days and Lindsey could seize on an idea and almost rewrite the whole track there and then. It was a fascinating dynamic, frought with ro*******s and incredible genius. His ability to conjur up amazing guitar lines was scary.... poof and there it was. He did like to employ a lot of varispeed while recording , to achieve a particular tone and often his guitar was direct. One thing that occured a number of times was a ground buzz on his guitar track. Lindsey would be so anxious to get the part recorded that he would not want to lean over and flip the ground lift on the DI box, annoying yes but then again , who could argue with the end result! At the end of the day, both Chris Lord Algae and I mixed the record with the mixes split between us. I cannot remember who came first. I really enjoyed the experience . kevin KK |
