Mixers

AMS Neve 8068 Mixing Console

This is the mixing console that Ghost used to mix the album "Meliora".

"For the latest album, we rented everything. We were in Stockholm and had a lot of contacts, collectors with cool guitars. We had this old Les Paul, I think it was from ’62 or ’64 or something like that, originally a Goldtop, but it looked like the Mona Lisa, it was all cracked up.

And besides maybe the Neve Console, it was probably the most expensive thing in the studio at that point, but it sounded so great. When you have something that is basically a museum artefact in your hands, you realise that white Flying Vs come and go, but this is something special."

Effects Pedals used by Nameless Ghoul on Meliora

Delay Effects Pedals

Way Huge Electronics Aqua-Puss MkII Analog Delay

Avg price: $87.00

Nameless Ghoul, who played lead guitar for Ghost from 2010 to 2016, used the Way Huge Electronics Aqua-Puss MkII Analog Delay alongside the MXR Carbon Copy to achieve a slapback sound. This specific sound can be heard during the solos of "Ritual" and "Year Zero." Although Fractal Audio Axe-FX II was used live, this combination was employed during recordings, particularly noticeable on "Ghost, Live From Music Feeds Studio, 2014." This information was confirmed through direct contact with the guitarist from that period. A supporting image is available on Equipboard.
