In Reply to: EMI studio (tube) amps used by the Beatles posted by pipo on March 29, 2007 at 11:49:48:
Most of the sound quality of these preamps and amps were due to the unique sound signature of the tubes and transformers used at the 1st input and output. But you have to consider the whole chain from microphone to tape and from tape to final release product. Most mics used were Neumann ((then Telefunken) U47 and the sound signature of the telefunken VF14 tube and output transformer in that microphone. Because it is the first in the chain and does much to establish the sound quality. Once you get the signal up out of the noise then you can work with it. Starting with REVOLVER the tape machine was a 1", 4 track Studer J37. Two of them were locked in sync with 8 total tracks. Ray Hughes

And make of you what I will,
Skunk-bear, carcajou, bloodthirsty
Non-survivor.
