Chris Marsh, Sheeran's FOH, uses the Avalon 737 for guitar and vocal reverbs

GRAMMY and MPG award winner Guy Massey, whose coup de gras was remastering The Beatles in 2009, recorded two tracks on Ed’s album.

One track was guitar and vocal and the other was piano and vocal – it was all live. I used a ribbon mic and the Focusrite ISA430 MkII. Both songs are just very pure recordings really, and when we came to tracking we had a few preamps to choose from, but I just chose the ISA430 MkII because you can just dial things in so quickly. It’s very intuitive in its layout and I always find it very easy to get a great sound, whether it be a clean and pure vocal or slamming drum destruction.

I’ve been using a 430 for around five years, and always found it to be a great workhorse. I love the clarity it provides when needed and also it’s versatility, which allows you to mangle sounds quickly due to its great ergonomics.
