Kevin,
Before any of the mixing and mastering, I had this done to every track.
Left track lowered 1Cent, right track raised 1Cent. No other tracks. I have no clue as to how Fred balanced the mics. I only listen, and say yes or no.
It is a digital doubling, normally done in analog fashion by retuning your guitar ever so slightly, and then playing it exactly along with the original track.
Then whatever ambient program we decided on was used, and we did our mastering.
The whole point is just to fatten the guitar track itself. What you do to it afterwards is up to you. We did very little eq and very little limiting, except for a couple of bass notes that got out of hand on one track.
Among others, Fred used Manley, HSE and Maselec analog, tube processors.
Only two mics were used, very close. One about 6" from the 4th fret (Neumann U-87) and one down near the butt end of the guitar about the same distance (Shure KSM-141)
