Gospel sounds of the Robert Ladson Ensemble

Gospel artist Robert Ladson brought in his entire ensemble for a 12+ hour day of recording in Studio A. Starting with the instrumental tracks (drums, bass, Hammond B3, grand piano) which were recorded live, we then reset the room to accommodate Robert’s 20+ voice choir. We split up the live room into sections, recording the sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses in different parts of the room. We also put two of our prized Neumann U87 microphones about 20 feet up in the air. The objective was to capture the sound of each section as well as the blend of all voices. The results were excellent, and we enjoyed having everyone that day.
