Sep 01, 2010 | 10,388 Views

Over the years, road warrior Glynn Wood has toured with the likes of Sinead O’Connor, Suzanne Vega and Big Audio Dynamite, to name but a few. In this video, Glynn talks about using Waves plugins for Zappa Plays Zappa, the highly acclaimed production in which the music of Frank Zappa is recreated by his son Dweezil Zappa and a host of A-list players. Glynn discusses the transition from analog to digital mixing, all the while keeping things as Zappa-like as possible. Some of the plugins Glynn uses include Waves SSL G-Master Buss Compressor on the mains, Waves C1 Compressor on keyboards, and the V-EQ3 / V-EQ4 Vintage EQ Plugins with the lead vocal preset on background vocals.
