Hey guys -
Maybe a tough question to answer, but on these two records (I'm sure there are others) there is a smooth/greasy/smeary/buttery pleasant sound on the tracks. I know they had access to very fine equipment in the studio and I don't discount the excellence on the engineering side, but I'm wondering what's the main contributor to this quality?? I can't seem to get anywhere close to that with plugins and I'm wondering if this is mostly hardware comps combined with tape compression. What might get me closer to that sound?
Sorry for the newbie like post.
