Plain White T's Record in Studio A for Slacker Radio

Plain White T's and Studio West Staff in Studio A

This past Friday Slacker Radio brought Plain White T's into Studio A to do some voiceover recording for their personalized radio station.  The band performed a 3-song acoustic set for an intimate gathering of 40 fans, closing with their biggest hit "Hey There Delilah".  The session was also streamed live over Slacker Radio and recorded for a potential future broadcast.

The five-member band brought in three acoustic guitars and a ukulele, and shakers and tambourines for the percussionist.  All of the instruments and voices were recorded in to Pro Tools HD 8 at 24 bit/96Khz and returned to Studio A's SSL 4064E Console for mixdown.  Each vocalist sang through an SM7b microphone except for lead singer Tom Higgenson, who sang through a U87 into a Teletronix LA-2A.  Every microphone was routed through a Neve 1073 Preamp before being sent into Pro Tools.
