Studio Gear used by Lil Tecca on NEVER LEFT

Preamps

AMS Neve 1073

Avg price: $3,925.63

Used for vocals on Virgo World, as mentioned by mix engineer Joseph Colmenero in this November 2019 Sound on Sound interview.

Colmenero: "I happen to know Tecca's manager, Giuseppe Zappala, and he sent me some artists he was developing, and Tecca was one of them. I did a few tracks with Tecca, recording his vocals and mixing them, one of them being 'Love No Thot', and he put that straight onto SoundCloud. His fans really liked it, and that's where we realised that we got along. Tecca only uses a Neumann U87 for his vocals, and I have used a couple of different preamps, the Neve 1073 and an Avalon 737. Though just last night I used an SSL VHD Pre on him, and we really liked how that sounded.
