The melodic anchor of this bundle is the 1901 Steinway Model B housed at Château d’Hérouville, heard on Honky Château, and used by David Bowie, Brian Eno, Pink Floyd and many more. Captured it using vintage Neumann U67s placed identically to the 1970s recordings, and featuring signals for analog tape saturation, ‘80s chorus, and gritty outboard distortion, it delivers a punchy fortissimo that cuts effortlessly through a mix, while retaining a beautifully nuanced soft intimate sound.

The unmistakable sound of Abbey Road Studio Two strings in an “Eleanor Rigby” lineup. A tightly focused, highly expressive string ensemble captured with the legendary microphone collection of the world's most famous recording studio.
