 Spanish Flea

Spanish Flea played on analogue synth with a hardware Hammond organ emulator taking the lead part. This is recorded with most parts being placed statically in the soundstage by the A+D pan-rotate, one (clip clop) placed dynamically alternately full front and back by joystick on the ambisonic panner and another (flea buzzing) in a constant slow clockwise spin via the oscillator driven auto-rotate function on the ambisonic panner. Soundstage positions: Bass Guitar slowly A+D pan-rotate rotating between +120 and +60 manual Strummed Guitar 1 -120 A+D pan-rotate static Strummed Guitar 2 -105 A+D pan-rotate static Strummed Guitar 3 -75 A+D pan-rotate static Strummed Guitar 4 -60 A+D pan-rotate static Maracas +60 A+D pan-rotate static Boss Drum +90 A+D pan-rotate static Clip Clop low note +180 Joystick panner manual pan across stage for high and low notes Clip Clop high note 0 Joystick panner manual pan across stage for high and low notes Side Snare +60 A&D pan-rotate static brought into centre two notches Cymbal +75 A&D pan-rotate static Trombone 1 -15 A&D pan-rotate static Trombone 2 +15 A&D pan-rotate static Flea Buzzing Voice Spin Auto-panner clockwise approx 0.2Hz Trumpet Melody Hammond 0 A&D pan-rotate static Trumpet Melody Hammond Reverb -180 A&D pan-rotate static Trumpet Harmony Hammond 0 A&D pan-rotate static Trumpet Harmony Hammond Reverb -180 A&D pan-rotate static Honky Whistle recorded in UHJ on DAT with the cheap soundfield microphone in a concrete fire escape staircase.
