Julien - that's an impressive list indeed.
Reminds me of a friend's studio in Brooklyn where we tracked some vocals last summer. You should have seen me putting my hands on a legendary Harrison 4032 board - same Bruce Swedien used...
That being said, and, actually, as I was discussing w/ my wife yesterday... As impressive as the gear was (that session featured the single most expensive signal chain I have ever heard "live"), in terms of sound, I actually preferred a performance that was captured w/ a more modest set up.
It was recorded in that suite in NY by the friend I mentioned in the first post - in a less than ideal room, w/ no vocal boot or soundproofing, using a Blueberry Mic in an Avalon tube pre/compressor.
The room looked kind of like this - but w/ better gear. That's my own portable set up back then. But same room, windows all around, no sound treatment whatsoever...
That recording helped me put things in perspective.
