Special techniques

(Page numbers refer to tips in The Huge Book of Fender Studio Pro Tips & Tricks v1.0)

* The *only* processing on drums is the Super-Saturator Mk II (page 345).
* All vocals use the Enhance Solo Vocals FX Chain (page 557).
* The rise at the beginning uses the new Pitch Envelope feature. Thanks, Hamburg!
* Mai Tai with a custom organ preset and the Sweet Multiband Chorus FX Chain (page 285) does the majority of the synth work.
* The forward/backward guitar effects that happens at the beginning and the chorus uses the Pseudo-Feedback Guitar effect (page 508).
* Using the "Inside-Out" mixing technique cut the mix time at least in half (page 931)
