Clay Blair is the head engineer and owner of Boulevard Recording in Hollywood-and a huge Beatles fan.
In this video, Clay set out to capture the tones heard on The Beatles’ Abbey Road; more specifically, those found on “Come Together.” He did so using many of the original instruments, microphones, mic preamps, and miking techniques, like AKG D19s and Chandler REDD.47 valve preamps. The Chandler amps are faithful reproductions of the 47s found in EMI REDD.51 consoles at Abbey Road Studios!
Unusual by today’s standards, Clay recreated engineer Geoff Emerick’s drum miking techniques which were used on nearly everything from Sgt. Pepper’s to Abbey Road. The setup consisted of a modest 7 microphones: five AKG D19s, a D20, and a Neumann KM 56 (a 54 was used here). One D19 served as an overhead; one was used on the hi-hat; and the remainder were positioned on the bottom of the toms. The D20 was placed on the kick, and the KM 56 miked the snare-also on the bottom! Who are we to argue with Geoff Emerick?
While the recording setup varied slightly from song to song on Abbey Road, “Come Together” was recorded on a 4-track tape machine. The 7 drum tracks would have been summed to a single track with a Fairchild on it, and that was that! There weren’t even any room mics used for the drums. Any room tone heard was actually bleed from the guitar, bass, or vocal microphones. The Beatles, like many great bands of the era, tended to record live as a band, with each member baffled off from the other…far from the isolated performances we tend to capture these days, and yet it sounded incredible! Now, we’ve come to associate the sound of bleed with bands like The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, whether we’re consciously aware of it or not.

Hey Guys ! Just a comment about the REDD Preamps and the TG desk misconception. From Recording The Beatles "Geoff Emerick also notes that the solid-state TG desk simply didn't allow him to record the drums the same way; he recalls being particularly frustrated at not being able to capture the same bass and drum sound as he had in the past. In fact, large portions of the album (Abbey Road) were tracked on the REDD.51 desk in Studio Three, but the TG certainly had an effect when mixing" Come Together was indeed recorded in studio 3 and ACTUALLY the famous 3M 8 track machines used on this album were not available so it was also recorded on the J37 tape machine. It was then dumped to the 8 track machine in studio 2 for the guitar solo, hand claps and the Rhodes piano solo. Hope this answers any misgivings ! Happy to answer any other questions I can as well regarding this session.

@stephenzeagman9985 6 лет назад

Thanks for making this video, and showing us all the different settings on the amps...very cool!

@Richard_P_James 6 лет назад

AMAZING bass sound you captured during this session!! Question: is that a modern Rickenbacker or a vintage bass? I have re-read Geoff Emerick's book many times, and it's important to let people know of his contribution to The Beatles' sound. Great video all round - well done to everyone involved.

@BoulevardRecording 6 лет назад

It's a Rickenbacker 4001C64 which is their reissue of the Rick bass that McCartney had. The 64 vintage Rickenbacker basses are VERY rare.

@Richard_P_James 6 лет назад

@ferabra8939 6 лет назад

The irony is that the Beatles thought the REDD consoles looked awful, old, like a RAF bomber...they were actually into modern looking stuff, and would have been happy recording with an iphone. Now we have the iphone and of course we like vintage...those REDDs look so cool to us.

The "RAF bomber" quote is from a Paul McCartney interview on the "Complete Beatles Recording Sessions" book (off the top of my head). They probably thought they looked great in 62, and it is about the sounds, of course.@@Producelikeapro

I do actually prefer the J37 to the Kramer or Slate tape emus. They have a pretty much binary tone apart from tape speed. The tonality on the J37 is so much more user-friendly. Plus the saturation is lovely on bass and drum busses

@nicogj6313 3 года назад

@mumbles215 5 лет назад

If you cut drums, and set up other mics such as the gtr amp mic, the bass amp mic, piano mic, just to get the bleed, or the “cheap bleed”, then you need to process those tracks just as you would if those tracks were “real”. Meaning you would have to process the gtr amp bleed mic the same as you would process the gtr. And pan it as such. Your options are incredible with the “cheap bleed” (as far as panning, eq, compression, volume, reverb) but the beauty about bleed is your stuck with it on there (after you’ve gone through lengths to minimize it) and then the bleed falls where it may. (Once you process and pan and place the other tracks). This to me that is the true beauty of bleed. There’s is much haphazardness involved that the lack of control, after recording, is special. Great video. Cheers

Quote from Steve Jones: "It was all [recorded] on a Fender Twin as far as I remember. It was a special Twin that had Gauss speakers in there that made it very middy and not so trebly. I had a couple of Gibson Les Pauls as well: there was a black [1954] Les Paul [Custom] and my white [1974] Les Paul.”

@alexstewart839 4 года назад

I'm honestly genuinely frightened by the reality of how hard Jones had to push that Twin to get those tones. Poor Paul Cook must be fully deaf in his left ear.

Songs from Abbey Road that were recorded in Studio 3 at Abbey Road using the REDD.51 Desk NOT the TG Desk : Come Together, Oh Darling, Octopus's Garden, Something, The End.... "20 of the 36 tracking days were done in Studio 3 during Abbey Road." So even overdubs were done on the REDD desk on some songs as well. The only song NOT MIXED on the TG desk on Abbey Road was "She's So Heavy" Which was actually recorded at Trident but MIXED on the REDD.51 desk in studio 3.

@andrewpeters2775 6 лет назад

My mistake. I know that Brian Epstein had done a deal with VOX in the very early days that was an exclusive while he was still their manager, that's what influenced my comment. I've had a few conversations with Richard Lush who was one of the Beatles engineers, he now lives in Sydney and has done since coming here to set up EMI Sydney.

@chrisjjespersen 6 лет назад

abbey road was the first album with the tg solid state desk but i think the only one was in studio two so all the songs done not in studio two would have still been the redd desks the mixing was mostly done on the tg but alot of that sound from the redd desks are still in there i have a question also which redd desk from waves would be more beatles time period and more used by them the 37 or the 51 and for a beatles vibe would you reccomend using the redd or the tg?

@BoulevardRecording 6 лет назад

Id say the REDD for Beatles vibe as 95% of their records were tracked on them. The 37 and 51 were used a lot. If you mean the REDD 17 plugin, that desk was only used on the first LP Please Please Me and used V72's instead of the REDD.47 preamp and lineamps, bit of a softer sound.

@chrisjjespersen 6 лет назад

i ment did they use the 37 or the 51 more because one the wave version both are in the same plugin but u can toggle back and forth and i was wondering should which one was more authentic

One of the best sounds I ever got on a hard rock band was in a 1000 square foot studio, with about a 30 foot ceiling in San Francisco. It was a studio built for the video game company Sega to record their video game music. It was all concrete and live as hell. I put the drummer in a corner, and the Bass and Guitar amps off to either side, baffled off from the drums. Btw, all I had were dynamic mic's. I had SM57's for the guitar amp, snare, toms, and overheads, and Sennheiser MD-421's for the Bass amp, and kick. Massive sound. Bleed in you're recordings is a marvelous thing, at least for the basic tracks. Thanks for the great video Warren.

I discovered it almost 3 years ago. Of all the tape sims I've tried, it seems to do a superior job, so I went for it. I'm even more frugal than Warren claims to be LOL! I don't open the wallet too easily. LOL! It's also good for tracks or buses that have previous automations on them because you can adjust the output on it and bring it up or down to the desired level. Haven't messed with the wow / flutter yet, messed with the tape / bias a little. Default is usually fine.

I always use the J37 on my master fader, it really ties everything together well, the best thing is I got it in sale for $29!

WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW Damn I just watched the finished video, SO GOOD! rock on :)

Nice dudes, congtats to the video and the final result, you got it really close and nicely done. One thing I missed on it is that you didn't mentioned anything about the keys, witch gives a completely different vibe in the mood of this music. You could show him doing/recording the electric piano with more details, if it was microphoned, how you did it, etc.. but anyway, congrats to the job and you got a new fan from Brazil. Cheers!

The Chandler huy also has some funny ideas about how EMI modded the Altec compressors.

Watched an interview with Ringo and he showed the drum fills were from the floor tom to the rack tom. I think it was easier to get back to the hi hat after the fill . Great video by the way

@BoulevardRecording 6 лет назад

Its funny, I saw that too.... But Ringo's memory isn't as good as you might think... Its clear on the recording he did not go to the floor first. The floor is the very dead sounding drum that you hear in the verses, I actually have a stem of his drum track solo'd, I slowed it way down to make sure I got the combination right. What you see me do is what is on that recording.

That guitar tone is SO useable. Wonderful stuff.

Wow that was awesome coverage of the sounds. What about the Rhodes what did that go into? Just showed how controlled the playing was by the guys - yes, they played together for year,s but the strict control, even the level of distortion is precise - just it all sounds so smooth. Thanks for that Warren. Love to see some more clips like this - eg Metallica, a Motown thing, etc. Teaches us more about sound reproduction. A great way to learn is by imitation. Thanks again Warren

I've read and watched a lot about the RS 124 but have never heard the tidbit about the serial numbers and attack and release times. That's an amazing idea by Chandler Limited and only adds to the authenticity of the product

Wow the video is fantastic. It sounds incredible.

Really enjoyed the video. Let's see now.....finding the gear is a quest. Also yes, I believe Lennon played his Epiphone Casino. George, the SG or "Lucy " the Les Paul ( which was originally Rick Derringer's Gold top, then repainted red, before Clapton found it, and Paul's Rick.

Very impressive results! I must say that the snare sounds quite different though... but really cool job!

steve jones dimed his twin but he had gaus 2841 (rated @ 400 watt) speakers in it and he was goosing the front end with a mxr distortion plus . the gauss speakers developed a reputation for very high quality along with possessing the ability to drill holes through a rock wall with shear volume. Gauss was one of the speakers recommended by Mesa for the Mark I. To quote the original letter sent to Mark I owners: "To get super performance from a Sixty watt model, we recommend the JBL K-120. Gauss and Electro-Voice EVM speakers also sound great in a Boogie and have a generally tauter, more rigid sound than the others." this is the part of that story that gets left to the way side as a dimed fender twin with the stock speakers , not sure if that would have made it on to any recordings . interesting tidbit , the amp was stolen , i am not sure who was the original owner , but the the rumor was it was ripped off from a bowie show . i found a pair of these speakers at a resale , installed in some generic large triaxle living room sized stereo speakers with a 15 dollar price tag . they are incredible speakers .
