Matthew Bellamy's Studio Gear
Mix engineer Tommaso Colliva on recording Drones : "Matt always tracks the vocals by himself. I set things up for him, and the mic pre we use is always a Neve 1073, usually with an 1176 compressor. I dial in some settings and he may nudge things up or down, depending on the kind of vocals he’s tracking. We also very occasionally used a Mercury M76 tube mic pre, and on a few songs Matt wanted to hold the mic in his hand, but we didn’t like the sound of a dynamic mic too much, so we ended up using a FET47 which I took out of the mic mount and wrapped in foam. "
Matt Bellamy's rig for the Black Holes and Revelations tour includes the Avalon VT-737sp Mic Preamp.
