Andrea Bocelli & Matteo Bocelli – Fall On Me

Used on Bocelli's vocals for "Fall On You", as mentioned by sound engineer Justin Cortelyou in this February 2019 Sound on Sound interview. An image of the settings can be found here.

"There are five vocal tracks because Andrea and Matteo sang some doubles, and also when we were in Nashville, some production decisions were taken about where to use Andrea's and where to use Matteo's vocals. Matteo re-sang the first chorus, which is the third track. We used slightly different EQ than on the previous take. The vocal chains we used on the two of them are different from any other vocal chain I have done! Andrea's vocal chain starts with the Massenburg Designworks EQ, with just a low cut and adding some high end. Next is the Eiosis e2 de-esser, cutting around 6kHz; the UAD Fairchild 670, not doing very much, only compressing in some hot spots; the Manley Massive Passive EQ boosting some high end; and the Maag EQ2, doing a sub low cut and adding some more air."

(...) "Matteo's vocal chain was very similar, apart from that I replaced the 670 with the Neve 33609. It was definitely a process to get the right chain and the right settings to make sure Andrea's and Matteo's vocals worked well together. We had to make sure they retained their own sonic characteristics, and at the same time that they fit with each other."
