“I personally don’t see a compressor as a compressor nowadays, because mixes that come in are way more squeezed than they were back in the days. I see them more as a tool to vibe to. The compressor is the way to bring back life to the song or enhance the mood. To me, in-the-box mixes are very static and flat-sounding most of the time. Some electricity from the real deal instead of the perfect zeros and ones is what’s mostly missing to connect with a human soul in a much more pleasant way.”
“The MBP just sounds like a record to me, it’s that simple…how music reacts to the unit inline is really lovely, and you can change the groove and focus of a song in a very pleasant way, always a beauty to listen through.”
“The 5254 is my go-to fun-box when more creative mastering is preferred…when a tight low end is necessary, with a good portion of energy and life in the top end of the frequency spectrum, mostly in the alternative genre, this one is in for sure.”
Thanks to much to @jerboamastering for doing a Customer Spotlight interview with us! It’s always a pleasure to hear from people who own multiple RND compressors so we can compare & contrast. Read more on MBP vs. 5254 on our website...

Today’s listening session: ATC25 and Kii Seven
We spent some time today with the ATC25 alongside the Kii Seven—two very different approaches, both with strong pedigrees and loyal followings.
To ATC’s credit, they delivered exactly what many listeners appreciate: a composed, balanced presentation with a familiar character that’s easy to settle into. Very assured. Very consistent.
The Kii Sevens, on the other hand, brought a different perspective—more forward in their presentation, with a level of precision, control, and dynamic expression that immediately stands out, especially in less-than-perfect rooms.
But as always, this isn’t about declaring a winner.
It’s about listening.
Every system interacts differently with its environment, and every listener brings their own preferences. What matters most is spending time with the music, in your own space, and deciding what feels right to you.
We encourage anyone curious to experience both approaches firsthand—because ultimately, the best system is the one that connects you most directly to what you’re hearing.

April 30, @michelledavidmusic & The True Tones hit @abconcerts for the release of their new album 'Soul Woman'.
Easily the finest soul & gospel band in the Low Countries, and I’ve had the honor of mastering their last four albums (plus a few singles along the way). Now I get to join them at one of Belgium’s coolest venues, spinning funk 45s for the warm-up and keeping the vibe alive at the afterparty. 🎉
Safe to say… I’m pretty damn happy about this! 🙏
Grab your tickets and come celebrate with us!!!! 👏
