"I’m not a massive tech man when it comes to pedals. I strive for a warm, clean sound with a touch of reverb and maybe, if it’s needed, a tad of delay." - Joe Newman.

"I really like Sennheiser vocal mics and because I’ve worked with them for so long within a couple of seconds I can hear what I need to do with EQ. Some voices just don’t work with certain mics but Sennheiser as a whole has a lot wider range - they sound great with a male or female vocal," says Alt-J's sound engineer, about the e 935 microphones used for Joe Newman's vocals, in this article.

Used live as a guitar cabinet mic, as mentioned by alt-J's FOH engineer Lance Reynolds on his official sE Electronics artist page.

"I also keep an sEX1 in my mic box...as a sort of "Swiss Army" mic. I've used it on guitar cabs, bass cabs, drum overheads, audience...it works on just about everything."

Used live as a guitar cabinet mic, as mentioned by alt-J's FOH engineer Lance Reynolds on his official sE Electronics artist page.

"Initially, I went to sE looking for a good large diaphragm condenser that wouldn't break the bank. Before I knew it, they sent out a dozen mics to for me to try...including a pair of VR1 ribbon mics. Perfect for a guitar cabinet, offering loads of low end and more highs than you would ever expect from a ribbon. I was surprised at how much more sound it captured than my usual guitar mics...and how realistic the guitar amp sounded."
