Great acoustics possibly with membrane bass absorbers (see other posts), each instrument separated with tall absorbing screens, Neumann U47 microphones, echo chambers at the basement, many recordings were done direct mix to mono or stereo, electron tube equipment, preamplifiers, analog tape recorders  etc.
