Recording engineer and former Abbey Road manager Ken Townsend recalls how he invented the classic effect known as Artificial Double Tracking (ADT) while he was recording the Beatles in the 1960s.

Hey Everyone,

I've been playing around with the Horns virtual instrument in Logic again and come up with the attached track. What do people think? Is it a little too busy in places.. (?) I was going for a big-band blues funk kind of vibe.

- I used Bias Amp 2 for guitar amp simulation (I played all parts on a LP 2015 Traditional).

This is such a great unit, so well designed and built.  The owner mentioned the input pot was not working. The unit arrived with what looks like impact or shipping damage.  The left corner of the front panel place was bent slightly back.  On inspection I found the input pot sheared off.

I found the  sheared input pot first...

Can someone familiar with this unit confirm (or otherwise) that the LED indicators on channel 2 are correct when the device is in "Coupled" mode (as indicated by the illuminated central red LED).  No audio is input.  The pics show both uncoupled and coupled modes.

TIA 

More Than Just a Demo

The track is a combo/cross of electronic and orchestral (scoring) stuff, based on a rather unusual harmonic/rhythmic structure.

The following is the gear I used on this track:

Is it necessary to notarize all of your music documents right away, or may we do it later?

In the last year every single audio recording I have done, has been as background music for video clients.  After decades of recording music for artists to release this has been a big change for me.

I have  a  couple of Rane 26B line mixers in to modify.  One unit had a flaky right side output connector and both had broken power connectors.  The Rane 26B use a phone type connector for its power connection.
