Andy Gill

In this article, Andy's approach to recording vocals is explained. "The album was rounded out with King’s vocals, captured on a Shure 57 or Neumann 67 and given a touch of delay and reverb with the PCM 70 or 80 and Logic reverb, 'to help the vocals sit in the track.'"

In this article on the making of Gang of Four's "Content" album, it states, "Gill routes his Fender Strat with Lace Sensor pickups (which result in less buzz when gain is added) through a DI, sending one signal straight to Logic and the other through the amp, blending the amp mic tracks with a track modified with plug-ins, including the Logic amp simulator or Pedalboard."

In this interview with Guitar World magazine, Andy discusses how he eschewed live amplifiers for the recording of Gang of Four's album What Happens Next.
