UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual - 573 - Chapter 57: History
“My big mentors were Andy Johns and Lee DeCarlo and Ron Nevision because they were all
Record Plant guys. I learned how to make a rock and roll record from them. Although over the
years it's become my own thing, my style still tends to be that Record Plant style, U87s, 1176s,
LA-2As, 47 F.E.T.s...it's what I like.”
Mike Clink
Producer/Engineer Mike Clink (Guns N' Roses, Sammy Hagar, Pushmonkey) also comes from
the Record Plant school of recording. “I find that I actually use 1176s more now than I ever
did,” he comments. “I like them because they bring out the brightness and presence of a sound
– they give it an energy. It seems like when I'm mixing I end up using an 1176 on the vocals
every time. And if I want to compress a room sound I'll take a mono room mic, put an 1176
across it and push in all the buttons.”
Bruce Swedien
Bruce Swedien is a master engineer who needs no introduction. He also is a die-hard 1176
fan. “I have two silverface 1176LNs in my rack that Bill Putnam personally picked out for me,”
he says. “I remember sitting at Bill's place in the Channel Islands, and talking about the 1176
and how I wanted a pair. The next time we went over he'd picked this pair out and they were
sitting in his garage waiting for me. I love them on vocals. All of the Michael Jackson and James
Ingram vocals that everyone has heard so much were done with at least one of those 1176s.
I couldn't part with them for anything. They sound fabulous.”
