- EMI crafted microphones for British Royalty—King George V

- in a strange twist of fate
- production started on the award-winning film
- “The King’s Speech.” After painstaking restoration
- the mics came back to life to record the film’s orchestral sections
- as well as “re-amp” the dialogue for authenticity. Then the Abbey Road engineers started experimenting with re-amping guitars and synths to get unique crunchy filter-like qualities. Clearly
