Woodinblack Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 I would have thought an acoustic guitar. Maybe it isn't his microphone and the photo is just at an angle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casapete Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 He did play some brass instruments in the studio, so maybe did live too? French horn on ‘Pictures of Lily’ ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the answer. He played a variety of brass horns live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpondonBassed Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 It's a noise cancellation technique from the good old days of analogue. The mics are out of phase so the background is cancelled out while the vocals (in the upper mic) survive the summing of the two signals. If I recall correctly from my sound and lighting coursework back in the day that is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
