Farview Recording - SC-1 Mic Preamps on Everything

Farview Recording

Special thanks to Jason Walsh of Farview Recording studios for providing these audio samples!

Note: This is an UNMASTERED mix recording created by Jason Walsh of Farview Recording Studios.  SC-1 preamps was used on everything... drums, ryhthm and lead guitars, and bass.

In Jason's own words: "The guitar sounds I use throw off a ton of low end, the bass was recorded hrough an Ampeg SVT set at war volume, my drums are giant heavy metal drums from the 80's...there is some low end going on.  The cool thing about your preamps is that they capture that low end without pooping out. The bass was both DI and mic'd cab. The guitars were double mic'd. A 57 and a ribbon for the rhythms, and a 57 and 421 for the lead. I like these things for guitar better than my Amek 9098 preamps that have been my go-to's."
