Joost van den Broek and FabFilter

"FabFilter and I go back a long way. I started using the first plugins they put out back in the day and has been using their growing and constantly developing catalog ever since."

"FabFilter is a fixed value in all of my mixes, not only because the plugins deliver the highest quality in audio, but also because they combine precision with a very intuitive user interface. Most used are the amazing Pro-Q's obviously, but the one that sticks out for me is the Saturn, that is an extraordinary tool for shaping and spicing up sounds."
