Some whoppers i have heard in my time, dont know if they are true or not.
- The kick sound on Abbey Road was made with Ringo whacking away at a phone book with his sticks.
- The laser sound in Star Wars is from a 2 track tape recording of a guy hitting a power line mooring cable with a stick. (sounds close)
- You can only record good tunes at home on a Mac and Pro Tools
- Tom Petty gets his vocal sound by running an SM57 through the pre-amp of a $50 Casio Karaoke Star machine
- Trent Reznor has had his Soundcraft Mic Pres coated with an expensive mixture of gold and sheep blood.
Not as technical or entertaining as others, but these were all overheard at the Conservatory Of Recoding Arts and Sciences in Scottsdale, Arizona in 1999.
