I love to use saturation plug-ins like Decapitator from Soundtoys, but it’s even more fun to use hardware gear. I love to use some old compressors, just runjing things through them even if I’m not compressing to get that analog saturation from their transformers. There are many cool experimental ideas with boom bar as well. One time, the artist wanted a very old-school sound, so I took an audio interface, a laptop and a speaker to a venue after hours when it was closed and ran the drums in the empty room so I can record it and blend it with the original to give it a really cool boomy club sound!
