Rollin' Stone being the exception on HD, of course
As far as I know, it was recorded on tape to get the 'vintage effect' - but the rest (mixing/mastering, etc) could also be digital.
Could be. Only three tracks to mix, though (vocal harp and guitar), so they could have done it old school.
Ah - what an odd way of figuring out why it took so long to get the vinyl pressed:
All because they used 2 inch tape for the last song and, instead of just uploading it to Pro Tools for, in this case, editing and mixing, but for mixing and then mastering they chose to go old skool and master it to tape, through only one of 4 Neve boards left in the world (or whatever it is) which then requires its own master print for each format, and they had to halt the entire vinyl printing process from the Pro Tools recordings master for the 2 inch recording's master...
Do you we know which studio has the neve board that they used? Would have been cool if they'd gone down to Muscle Shoals to record it.
Voodoo, I don't know if they did, I just put that (and the amount I made up but it's actually something ridiculous like that as I recall in terms of how many are left... I think, or something like that) in there because all the audio production people go bonko about those boards!
I think Mick said that about recording to tape, the first time they'd recorded to tape (he wasn't specific, if he would've been he would've said 1985) in years (or decades, something like that). He didn't mention anything else.
Gabrielle dreams? What year we are living in? That song is older than the stonesQuote

Recording to analogue tape via a vintage desk may have been great fun, and there may well be a nice tonal character retained from the process...
...but it will then have been transferred to the same digital master as all the other tracks and will then be no more analogue than they are.
[I'd love a bit of audible tape his though. in the quiet bits of many old analogue records and via a good system, you can hear the engineer moving the faders up and down, with the ebb & flow of the hiss.]

...I love how people are excited that this album will be on vinyl and "that's the best way to listen" when... it's basically a CD copied to vinyl. It's certainly not for the sound quality...

Everyone (with sanity) knows something happened back then that is no way acceptable nowadays (forget the macho men living in the past loving to hate anything modern).
Cheers!

Hi Rocky - where are you, man? Your thoughts about the new album? This is the last post of yours (it's been over six weeks) and no way I accept that it was that quoted bit that drove you away.

Don't worry MrForeverMusicFan.
BV won't be angry with you. I don't think.
I understand the cutoff date was Sep 15th for the Grammy's, which is why that appears to be the only nomination that qualified for this year, so next year's nominations should be interesting.

Should be interesting. I see the Foo's as the only real competition here.
