Any new piece of equipment has a learning curve: some curves are gentle, some quite steep. With that in mind, we’re always trying to find ways to help get you familiar with your new RND gear.

We’ve had the pleasure of interviewing Toby on several occasions – but this time around, we decided it would be more fun to have another engineer do it so they could geek out together.

At long last, our Dante-connected 8-channel mic preamps are in stock and shipping again.

An in-depth interview from Sound On Sound with famed composer AR Rahman at his beautiful Firdaus Studios complex in Dubai, built around a custom 5088 console.

“Proud to say I have quickly built one of the highest earning studios in Las Vegas, while utilizing a Shelford Channel as one of my only pieces of gear. You just can’t beat it.”

At this year’s NAMM Show, we took home two more TEC awards with the Newton Channel and the RNDI-8, making a grand total of 21x TEC wins since the company’s inception in 2005.

See you this week in Anaheim!

FOH Engineer Jamie Pollock is still out on Depeche Mode’s worldwide ‘Memento Mori’ tour – check out the RND gear he’s taken with him.

We are delighted to announce that the readers of Sound On Sound have chosen the Newton Channel as this year’s winner in the category of ‘Microphone Preamplifiers’. This marks the company’s seventh SOS Award – we’re extremely honored, and grateful to all SOS readers worldwide.

FOH Engineer Ryan Pickett has been mixing My Morning Jacket live for 20 years – and using RND gear for much of that time. Watch our interview with him here.

See you on January 24th in Los Angeles.

“I don’t really do a whole lot of outboard, and I love my S6L, but I was VERY pleased when I tried the 5059 Satellite. It adds space – width, depth, obviously tonal qualities, sure – but what really shocked me was using Silk.”

We discovered this post on the Production Expert website just before the holidays, and excerpts from it are shared below with kind permission from the author, James Richmond. Thank you James! We couldn't get you a 5088 for Christmas, but we truly appreciated this article.

Vintage King Audio recently installed a 5088 in their Los Angeles showroom, and invited us over for a conversation about the history, design, and philosophies behind our flagship piece of recording & mixing equipment.

Though the majority of our customers use our equipment in the context of music production and live sound reinforcement, we occasionally hear about other manufacturers using our products to do what they do – in this case, creating an amazing virtual instrument for Kontakt 7.

“The Master Bus Transformer completely replaces all the plugins on my mix bus, and it is extremely easy to use. The EQ on the input stage is perfect, Super Silk replaces all my tape and saturation plugins…Super Silk is a wow factor when mixing, it shapes the music in a crazy musical way. I had to leave the room and scream because it just all made sense.”

FOH Engineer Brad Divens (Disturbed, Enrique Iglesias) walks us through his rig and explains how he's using a veritable mountain of RND gear to do what he does so well.

We recently heard about a customer who’d racked up 16x Newton Channels together, and obviously needed to learn more about this amazing rig.
