Album production for Stef Classens at Moon Music Studios in 2015: drums, bass, guitar, keys, pedal steel and vocals, mixed by Wessel Oltheten.
In 2015 Stef Classens recorded an album at Moon Music Studios. Drums were played by Nicky Hustinx in January and Willem van Bokhoven in June, recorded with Telefunken U47, Coles 4038 and AKG D19. Sophie van Schaik recorded bass through an Ampeg SVT Classic and Bassman 100 with a Royer R121. Guitar went through a Meyer Brighton 45, Marble Amp and Vox AC50. Keys and pedal steel followed, and in September vocals on a new vintage Neumann M49. Wessel Oltheten mixed in October 2015. The original posts follow below.

Vandaag zang opgenomen met Stef Classens met mijn nieuwe Vintage Neumann M49 ;). Wat een sound!!
The Neumann M49 was a multipattern large-diaphragm tube microphone with an important new innovation: the mic’s pickup pattern could be adjusted remotely, by a dial on the power supply.
Another new innovation was that the mic maintained nearly equal sensitivity and output level across patterns — unlike the U-47, for example, which was 5dB hotter in Cardioid than Omni.
Maintaining output level required a change in the polarization voltage circuitry. Whereas the U-47’s circuit would disconnect the capsule’s rear diaphragm in Cardioid mode, in the M 49 both diaphragms were always polarized — the front at a constant 60Vdc, and the rear from 0Vdc to 120Vdc. When set to Cardioid, the rear diaphragm polarization voltage was 0Vdc.
