Alex Tumay's Gear
When asked about his choice of headphones, Tumay responded that he uses the Audio Technica M50x.
When asked about his home studio setup, Tumay answered that he uses Yamaha HS50 monitors
In a thread of tweets regarding the choice to track vocals that have already been run through a compressor, Tumay states that he prefers to "use a Neve/CL-1b and compress until it sounds right with nothing on Pro Tools" before making in-the-box adjustments. Tumay's reasoning for this is that "no software compressor can touch any hardware compressor in [his] experience" (source)
Edit: Alex also recently bought his own CL-1B as of the 28th of December, 2018 to use going into 2019!
