Developed at Abbey Road, Refined by Waves
The Waves Reel ADT plug-in brings you an authentic replication of the Artificial Double Tracking effect developed at Abbey Road studios for The Beatles. Reel ADT mimics the effect of sending an audio track to a separate tape machine, allowing you to adjust the time difference of the two tracks. This creates the effect of recording two takes with subtle timing differences. You can also coax a wide range of flanging, phasing, and tape saturation effects. It's a classic sound that's perfect for adding spice to modern recordings. Call Sweetwater to get the Waves Reel ADT plug-in today!
Waves Reel ADT Plug-in Features at a Glance:
- Software emulation of the Artificial Double Tracking effect developed at Abbey Road Studios
- Varispeed can be controlled manually via MIDI, or automatically via built-in LFO
- Add sweet tape saturation with the drive control
- Full control over pan position and phase of original and doubled tracks
- Perfect for enhancing vocals and guitar parts
You can buy all manner of things in the Trading Post. Punt up £17, and you can advertise your nearly-new rattan sofabed or your red leather bar counter. Like its British equivalent, Loot, the Australian small-ads sheet is a paper-and-ink junkyard of the forgotten and unloved. Except in the auto and property sections, it is rare to see anything that will set you back more than a few hundred pounds. So an advert in the paper on January 9 really ought to have stood out. 'Beatles most valuable collectors items,' it read. 'Abbey Road and White albums on tape reel, direct from Abbey Road Studios in London, extremely extinct, mint condition, $5 million negotiable.'
The ad seemed so bizarre that it was initially taken for a hoax. Even on the stoked-up Beatles collector's market, the price - equivalent to £1.75m - seemed high. If the tapes were really worth that much, why advertise them in the down-market Trading Post?
The clipping was spotted by the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper, who treated it with more amusement than concern. That might well have been the end of it had an Australian journalist not tipped off police in the City of London.
The British police had been conducting a much more extensive investigation into missing Beatles recordings. The day after the advert appeared in Australia, Operation Acetone culminated in simultaneous raids and the arrests of five people in Amsterdam and London. Five hundred tapes of the Get Back sessions, which had allegedly been offered for £270,000 on the black market, were taken away.
At this point the tale enters the strange world of the Beatles obsessive. To aficionados, the Get Back sessions are a sort of holy grail. Recorded in January 1969 when the band were on the brink of implosion, they have been combed for signs of the incipient breakup.
The band's final two albums, Abbey Road and Let It Be, had their genesis during these sessions. Most of Abbey Road's songs were demoed that January, while Let It Be was cobbled together by Phil Spector from the raw material on the tapes. Bootleggers have managed to pull even more from the sessions, compiling dozens of albums from the cutting-room fragments. For the non-fan, it's pretty unremarkable stuff: George and Paul sniping at each other, a lyric changed here, a fresh guitar part there. The sound quality is almost always atrocious, but for obsessive fans hungry for material, this matters little.
The origins of the Abbey Road bootlegs are more confusing. EMI, which owns the rights to the tapes, has been miserly in their releases of fresh material. But according to a rumour that has been kicking round collectors' circles for nearly 30 years, the recordings were made by two employees at the studios who stole a batch of session tapes in the early 1970s.
Apple Records and EMI have refused to confirm or deny the rumours. Their own releases of studio material have been famously paltry, a stinginess credited by many collectors for encouraging the growth of the bootleg industry.
Since the arrests in January, more information has come out. The first surprise for collectors was that the 500 reels seized in Amsterdam were not just studio copies but master tapes. The second was apparent confirmation of the rumour that the theft had been an inside job: the two people arrested in London are believed to have been former Abbey Road employees.
The purported operation cracked by the Acetone detectives would constitute a highly organised setup. The tapes were held in a warehouse outside Amsterdam, while the British end touted for business among collectors. Police were only able to track down the Dutch operation when British agents telephoned them to close a deal struck with undercover agents.
The police clearly took the reports of a similar find in Australia seriously, and last Friday Sydney police launched a dawn raid on a modest two-storey house in the suburbs. The tapes - two pristine reels with all the correct EMI and Apple insignia - were found in a safe inside.
Their advertiser, 27-year-old Branko Kuzmak Jr, was taken away for questioning before being released without charge. Kuzmak, an unemployed factory worker, told police that he had bought the tapes for £350 from a man he had met at a music fair in 1991.
'This is what's interesting here,' says Bruce Spizer, the author of several books on Beatles rarities. 'We had thought that EMI had owned all the Beatles masters until they found the tapes in Amsterdam. So it makes you wonder about this stuff in Sydney.' He is baffled about the amount of money demanded for the material. 'Certainly if you were to find a very rich collector he might be prepared to pay that sort of amount, but the only way you could make your money back would be through bootlegging.'
Beatles collectables expert John Winn is sceptical about the monetary value of the tapes, pointing out that while plenty of material went missing from the Get Back sessions, there are no such problems associated with the White Album. 'There have never been any rumours of material going missing,' he says. 'It could well be that they're just reel-to-reel tapes of the albums - the sort of thing that you could just buy.'

The Beatles in Mono is a boxed setcompilation comprising the remasteredmonaural recordings by the Beatles. The set was released on compact disc on 9 September 2009, the same day the remastered stereo recordings and companion The Beatles (The Original Studio Recordings) were also released, along with The Beatles: Rock Bandvideo game. The remastering project for both mono and stereo versions was led by EMI senior studio engineers Allan Rouse and Guy Massey.[8]
The boxed set was released on 180-gram heavyweight vinyl on 8 September 2014, mastered directly from the original analog tapes and not the digital masters used for the CD release.[9]
Intention[edit]
The Beatles in Mono was released to reflect the fact that most of the Beatles' catalogue was originally mixed and released in the monophonic format. Stereo recordings were a fairly new concept for pop music in the 1960s and did not become standard until late in that decade. This explains why the Beatles' initial album releases were mixed for mono. By the late sixties, however, stereo recording for pop music was becoming more popular and, thus, the new standard. Therefore, the last few Beatles albums--Yellow Submarine, Abbey Road, and Let It Be—were mixed and released only in stereo. Many feel that the mono mixes reflect the true intention of the band. For example, in the case of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, all the mono mixes were done together with the Beatles themselves, throughout the recording of the album, whereas the stereo mixes were done in only six days by Abbey Road personnel George Martin, Geoff Emerick and Richard Lush after the album had been finished, with none of the Beatles attending.[10]George Harrison commented:
At that time [..] the console was about this big with four faders on it. And there was one speaker right in the middle [..] and that was it. When they invented stereo, I remember thinking 'Why? What do you want two speakers for?', because it ruined the sound from our point of view. You know, we had everything coming out of one speaker; now it had to come out of two speakers. It sounded like .. very .. naked.[11]
Limited edition[edit]
Amazon.com advertised the set as a limited edition item in the United States, and less than a month prior to the set's release announced the site had sold out of units.[12][13] Less than two weeks before 9 September, many other online retailers announced the selling out of units from their inventories, including the Canadian Amazon.ca site.[14]

EMI announced on 3 September that more mono boxed sets were to be pressed due to high demand from online pre-orders.[15] It is still to remain a 'limited edition', but since it has already been certified platinum by the RIAA, it was not limited to 10,000 copies as originally stated. As of July 2018, the CD set is still readily available; however, the vinyl box set is out of print. Individual mono albums on vinyl still available are: Rubber Soul, Revolver, The Beatles, and Mono Masters, a 3-LP set of singles.
Five years after the initial CD release, mono editions of each of the albums are available individually in the vinyl format, though the mono editions for CD are still only available in the box set. All of the American albums can be had on CD individually in mono paired with the original stereo mixes; this is the only other way to acquire the mono mixes on CD.
Disc listing[edit]
The thirteen-disc (fourteen on LP) collection contains the remastered mono versions of every Beatles album released in true mono. The original 1965 stereo mixes of Help! and Rubber Soul are included on the CD version as bonuses on their respective albums. (In 1986 both albums had been remixed by George Martin for their CD release in 1987.) The box contains a new two-disc compilation album titled Mono Masters, which compiles all the mono mixes of singles, B-sides and EP tracks that did not originally appear on any of the UK albums or Magical Mystery Tour.

The albums Yellow Submarine, Abbey Road and Let It Be are not included in this set, as no true mono mixes of these albums were issued. The same holds true for the songs 'The Ballad of John and Yoko', 'Old Brown Shoe' and the single mix of 'Let It Be', which were also omitted. A mono version of the Yellow Submarine album was released in the UK, but it was simply a fold-down (two stereo channels combined into one channel) from the stereo mix, not a unique, separate mono mix. Abbey Road and Let It Be were issued in the UK in mono on reel-to-reel tape and on LP in Brazil and other countries, but again, only as fold-downs from the respective stereo versions.
The previously unavailable true mono mixes of the four new Beatles songs released on the Yellow Submarine album ('Only a Northern Song', 'All Together Now', 'Hey Bulldog' and 'It's All Too Much'), originally intended for a separate, but ultimately scrapped mono EP which would have also included a mono mix of 'Across the Universe', are included on the Mono Masters compilation.
Also omitted from this set, but included in the stereo box set, is a DVD containing the mini-documentaries included with the stereo remasters of the different albums.
The 'White Album' was originally released in mono and stereo in the UK and several other countries, but in the United States, it was only released in stereo. However, the mono mixes of 'Don't Pass Me By' and 'Helter Skelter' had been previously issued in the US in 1980 on the Capitol RecordsRarities compilation album.
All CDs replicate their original album labels as first released, from the various Parlophone Records label variations, to the Capitol Records label (for Magical Mystery Tour) and the UK Apple Records side A and B labels for discs 1 and 2 respectively for The Beatles. For Mono Masters, disc 1 uses a mid-1960s Parlophone label design and disc 2 uses the unsliced Apple label design.
The Beatles Abbey Road Reel To Reel Monomer
The set also includes a 44-page booklet which includes an essay on the important role that the mono mixes played in the Beatles' recording career, plus a track-by-track listing of the recordings.
Chart performance[edit]
The set debuted at number 40 on Billboard'sTop 200 chart and the magazine reported that 12,000 copies were sold in its first week of release.[16][17] In Japan, it debuted at number 10, selling over 20,000 copies in its first week on the Oricon album charts.[18] The set was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America in April 2010.[19]
