People always wax lyrical about how much warmer or better analogue technology sounds, but what are the practicalities of recording in this format as opposed to digital?

Inside this Golden Nugget episode, Isobel delves back to EP#07 when she chatted to engineer and owner of Analogue Catalogue recording studio, Julie McLarnon about how preparation really takes on a whole new meaning in an analogue studio. Even if you’re working mainly or solely with digital software, there’s a lot we can still take from Julie’s approach.
