“I like vocal effects most when they are radical and transformative and make me give more as a singer. If they are too subtle then they starts to feel like cheese sauce and it’s usually better raw. Those decisions come very early in the writing process because I commit to the effects while I’m recording them (rather than applying them post). That way I can be sure they’ll translate live.” (via Q&A: Former Books Member Nick Zammuto on the Very Busy Start to His 2012 | The Measure)
