Welcoming the Mutronics Mutator to the studio. The creamiest, most liquid filter. Amazing in parallel on the drum bus or entire mix! Also does epic things to digital and soft synths.
Djing with it is amazing too (also in parallel). It seems to do best with very harmonic content, so running a bassline through distortion and then filtering it is awesome.

Universal Audio in the studio today, working on more kick drums. This is an original blackface 1176. Sounds great in parallel with a nice subtle distortio going.
For the 909 Kick , we used a radial DI to drop the line level to mic level, and then used the mic preamp input of the LA-610.

This is the live room of Studio C, where Nile Rodgers recorded Madonna's "Like a Virgin"!
