Bob Clearmountain's Gear
Early use of the NS-10 among engineers include Bob Clearmountain, Rhett Davies, and Bill Scheniman in the US, and Nigel Jopson in the UK. Clearmountain, then a rising star in record production, is often credited for the popularity of the NS-10; Phil Ward, writing in Sound on Sound, suggested that Clearmountain was probably not the earliest, but was certainly the most influential early adopter.It became a legend that Clearmountain had chosen it because it was the worst speaker he could find.He was one of a new breed of creative freelance recording engineers and producers who would travel from studio to studio equipped with their own gear that included microphones, and a pair of Yamaha NS-10, as a reference.
Bob Clearmountain is noted for using the SSL 4080 G+ Classic mixer, as seen in a user-uploaded photo on Vintageking. This mixer, part of the renowned SSL 4000 series, has been instrumental in producing numerous platinum-selling albums. Clearmountain has applied his mixing expertise to work with artists such as Johnny Hallyday, Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, and Ricky Martin.
