The two on the right are pretty recognizable as the 1073, but what are the 2 channels on the left? They’re actually something pretty special! They are vintage Neve 1066’s custom modified by Sheps to have basically a 1081 EQ. The modification added an extra circuit board, but kept all of the original circuit in tact and is completely reversible if we wanted to go back to 1066. But the enhanced EQ is SO MUCH more usable. Oh and did we mention it was custom modified for The Who’s Pete Townshend?

If you’ve recorded drums in Studio 1, there a good chance you’ve heard this room tone. Vintage C414 EB with the brass ring CK12, faced away from the kit, through the Legacy and compressed with VCA compressor. A perfect match!
