From the Front:

"I heard about the JDK brand a few years ago and I was very interested to try the equipment. With a tough look, '60s or '70s style, it seemed to be made to last the rest of your life. After some research, I was very interested in the R24 because of the vintage sound it produced.

"The sound of the R24 is very musical and not surgical, which I really like. It produces clean and sweet highs, and I can boost it up and the sound will never be harsh or unpleasant. I love when I pump up the lows of the Kick or Bass tracks and get that solid bottom end that can support everything you want to put on top. I can get presence in voices, guitars and strings just with a little move of the knob in the 3k-5k. And I get all of that with the spice of the vintage sound. I find myself using it in all stages of any given production, tracking, mixing and also mastering work."
