The Black Keys - Chulahoma
« on: March 03, 2009, 07:43:08 AM »
The Black Keys are known to exclusively use R2R Tape Recorders for all their recording. Plus TP needs some good blues rock. 

From http://www.guitarplayer.com/article/the-black-keys/Nov-03/1580
What’s the gear situation down there in the basement?
We’ve got a bunch of Shure SM57s and SM58s, an AKG C1000, and a couple of Sennheiser mics. We run everything into a Tascam 388 Studio [an early—1985—analog 8-track workstation that combined 1/4" reel-to-reel tape with a built-in mixer]. Pat has a cheap spring reverb unit, and that’s about it for outboard gear.

They have other good albums too.
