Why We Love This Product!

A Great Deal on a Classic Compressor!

Looking for API-style sound from a quality 2-channel compressor but lack the cash flow to make it happen? You're in luck! The JDK Audio R22 compressor's got the important guts of the API Paragon mixing console, but a low price tag you just wouldn't expect. Whether you know it or not, you've heard the technology in the JDK R22 compressor on lots of hit songs. It's got that sweet THRUST function that lets you crush you dynamics without sucking the life out of them, and that's a big part of getting your track to sound big, bold, and professional. And the R22 also gives you loads of flexibility. You can use each of its channels separately, like them in stereo, or sum them for dual layer compression (a great trick for getting silky-smooth vocals that sit in the middle of your mix). Great value, excellent price, killer results - that's what you get when you pick up a JDK R22 compressor!
