Natalie Cole
Natalie Cole's Studio Gear
Recording engineer Al Schmitt mentions using a Neve 1073 to record Cole's cover of her father's "Unforgettable".
"At one point, instead of being in a vocal booth, she came out and stood right there with the orchestra, à la Frank Sinatra. She was amazing. I used a Neumann U67 on her voice, along with just 2dB of a Summit limiter and a Neve 1073 preamp. I like the 67 a lot, it seems to work well on vocals, and with her it worked really well. When her father recorded 'Unforgettable', he used a 47, and the 67 matched up pretty well with that."
