"On the whole, the Dreaming My Dreams sessions were cut live. (...) 'The studio was small, so there wasn’t a lot of space between places,' [studio engineer Kyle] Lehning says, 'and Waylon was at the center of all of this, playing electric guitar and singing live vocals into a Neumann U47 FET. Sometimes he would fix a vocal later, but sometimes it would be that live vocal on the track. The vocal chain would have been the preamp in the Flickinger console through an LA-2A and the FET U47.'"

Maestro PS-1A Phase Shifter

Jennings was famous for his use of this phaser, particularly on Dreaming My Dreams, as stated by studio engineer Kyle Lehning in this April 27, 2010 Mix Online interview.

On the whole, the Dreaming My Dreams sessions were cut live. (...) "We had a lot of extra instruments around the studio, as well," Lehning continues. "[Waylon] would actually play my electric 12-string from time to time and run it through his Maestro Phaser—though mostly he would play his old leather Telecaster."

Jennings' PS-1A was sold on eBay on October 23, 2018 for $18k.
