“We’ve got a piano, which is really beautiful,” Weller says. “It’s a Yamaha grand that I’ve had for about 25 years, and it has a very nice low end to it. We also always use the Mellotron, Minimoogs—mainly the piano and a lot of vintage keyboards.”

If you pause this video at about 1:06, you can quite clearly see the TU-2 on the floor next to Weller's feet.

In the video of news of the world Weller is playing an F-hole Rose Morris rickenbacker 330.

In this article a Front of House sound engineer notes that most recently Paul Weller prefers Shure SM58 vocal mics exclusively.

Paul performing live with Telefunken M80 mid stage on guitar and also with another located at his Yamaha faux acoustic piano stage left.

I found with Supercardioid pattern's proximity of the mic to be behaving rather poorly in this particular application. Paul's vocal keeps trailing off each time he moves his mouth slightly off-axis. It is an appallingly poor application that appears that no amount of compession might overcome, sadly.

"We went for the Mac Pro upgrade at Paul Weller’s studio, Black Barn. It has been a breath of fresh air. The system rarely crashes and is now lightening quick."

“We’ve got a piano, which is really beautiful,” Weller says. “It’s a Yamaha grand that I’ve had for about 25 years, and it has a very nice low end to it. We also always use the Mellotron, Minimoogs—mainly the piano and a lot of vintage keyboards.”

Other processing that’s essential to the Saturns Pattern sounds: Weller’s EMT 140 plate reverb, which Kybert says he used on almost everything.

"There are some loops and samples, but generally speaking, it’s pretty much all live playing. In some cases, we recorded loops with drum machines, but we replaced them with real drums. So it’s a mix of technology and old-school playing, all done on Pro Tools. We tried as much as we could to keep the sound warm and not too digitized, trying to keep that depth and warmth."
