Miguel Falcão takes us through Chris Squire's setup for Tormato – 505

Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius<br /><br /><br /><br />A small selection from my Tormato collection<br /><br /><br /><br />I asked our friend Miguel Falcão to tell me a bit about how Chris Squire achieved such a remarkable bass sound for Tormato. Instead of sending me a few bullet points, Miguel was kind enough to record a complete audio description of the technical minutiae of the master's solution. Mark and I listen to this amazing in-depth piece and discuss a few of the points Miguel makes.<br /><br /><br /><br />Many thanks to Miguel and if you haven't heard his staggeringly accurate Yes bass covers, then you are missing out a great deal. See the links below to remedy that immediately.<br /><br /><br /><br />* How did Chris Squire achieve 'that' sound for Tormato?* What technology did he employ?* Was the approach the same on every song on Tormato?<br /><br /><br /><br />Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!<br /><br /><br /><br />Miguel's amazing website:<br /><br /><br /><br />Miguelbass.com<br /><br /><br /><br />Chris Squire's bass setup photographed by Dave Watkinson at the Tormato sessions, RAK studios, London, 1978:<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />A selection of Miguel's Tormato bass cover versions:<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://youtu.be/rnwWLGfSLog" rel="noopener">https://youtu.be/rnwWLGfSLog</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://youtu.be/ojygByrrijI" rel="noopener">https://youtu.be/ojygByrrijI</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://youtu.be/E8Kwf2mklvQ" rel="noopener">https://youtu.be/E8Kwf2mklvQ</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Miguel's Annual #PlayForChris project:<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://youtu.be/giM1mgCXFho" rel="noopener">https://youtu.be/giM1mgCXFho</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Other resources<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=977Sri5EcCE" rel="noopener">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=977Sri5EcCE</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a hr
