TUTORiAL
Join Beck as he revisits the making of 'Morning,' the opening track from his Grammy Award-winning album 'Morning Phase.' The genre-bending icon explores his evolution from lo-fi to high-end studio recording, breaking down the equipment, acoustic spaces, and production philosophies behind one of his most intimate songs.
Beck begins by introducing his all-star band of LA musicians: Joey Waronker, Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Smokey Hormel, Roger Joseph Manning Jr., and the late, great James Gadson. Explore the group's unique musical chemistry as he solos their performances and shares insight into the band's creative process.
Grammy-winning engineer Darrell Thorp joins in with additional notes on the recording process at United Recording. Learn why the drums were exiled to a tiny iso booth, and how the team captured the signature sound of Beck's 1941 Martin acoustic. From overdriving preamps to pairing EQs and layering reverbs, this is a masterclass on how to capture magical moments in the studio.
