Very knowledgeable guy and really nice too. Put his name in the search engine field and you will find out everything you ever wanted to know about him.

Welcome to "the org", Mumio…they can have you, but I'll have your love in the end nod

Dave is a fantastic guy and engineer. He was heavily involved at Paisley before and during the 3121 era.

"Hampton reasoned that having the smaller Studio D as well as building Prince a mobile studio (known as Studio 3121), would expose Prince to the way young artists were recording in 2004 – in small rooms that were no bigger than a bedroom, and with lots of computerized tools at their disposal."

There it is! biggrin

That's funny because his last stuff does have a close to the mic, minimal dry, very clinical sound (generally).

But not the title track 3121. That has a cool rough imperfect (almost garage), speaker mic'd sound on the intsrumentation.
