Mix engineer Tommaso Colliva on recording Drones : “We had the bass cabs in the basement, which meant quite a long cable run, and for this reason we also had the mic pres in the basement, which usually were Neve 1081s, going into an [Teletronix] LA2A or [Empirical Labs] Distressor for compression, and then into insert returns on the desk, where we could apply some final level and EQ while bypassing the line amp on the desk.”
Mix engineer Tommaso Colliva on recording Drones : “We also took a DI from the bass guitar, which allowed us to re–amp things later on if needed, and a distorted DI, taken post–pedal, and I sometimes had an LA3A or a Distressor on the DI.”
