Today Alessio Lorenzi has been in our studio to record and mix his new single: Ragazzo di Periferia.

He played his beautiful acoustic guitar Gibson Chet Atkins.

We mixed on my D&R Dayner consolle, oldest e warmth piece of gear. I like it!

Tracks sheet is (drums and bass were recorded in a previous session):

Bass Drum in & out – AKG c414 + AKG D112 into Focusrite ISA428

Snare Drum up & down Shure – SM57 + Sennheiser MD409 into Focusrite ISA428

Electric Bass – direct inject into Focusrite ISA220

Gibson Chet Atkins – direct inject into Focusrite ISA220

Yamaha digital piano CLP-170 – direct inject into TL Audio C5001

Vox – Shure SM58 into Focusrite ISA220 (YES!!! I have Neumann U87ai but today SM58 sounded very cool and I think it’s important the sound and not the brand, isn’t it?)

Mix had amazing sound, we were very satisfied.

Alessio Lorenzi here at the end of day.

Cheers,

Lorenzo
