Austin After-Hours Acoustic — Intimate Jumbo Strum

The song was recorded at Congress House Studio in Austin on October 8, 1994 during the sessions that also produced “Half the World Away.” The precise acoustic model and microphone were not documented, so this preset uses a representative early-Oasis jumbo acoustic with restrained compression and room ambience.

Notes

Play behind the vocal and keep the low strings controlled. Use only enough compression to even out the strumming without removing its intimate dynamics.
