Oxford University Press (forthcoming) <1>Introduction: The Beatles at Abbey Road as a New Paradigm It has been generally accepted that The Beatles and their team invented a new way of producing music at Abbey Road Studios. In the mid-1960s, they started to compose music and to experiment with multitrack tape recorders in the studio instead of recording songs that had been rehearsed beforehand. Some of their sound and maintenance engineers, such as Norman Smith, Geoff Emerick, Ken Scott, and Ken Townsend, developed a series of new techniques and devices, while their producer, George Martin, in his orchestrations, drew upon instruments and sounds that the band did not itself play.
