• DRAWMER Channel Strip "1979" Review Published! [Sound & Recording Magazine April Issue]

  

  2026/02/25

  A review of the DRAWMER Channel Strip "1979" was published in the April issue of Sound & Recording Magazine.
  In addition to its exceptionally clean preamp, the 1979's unique "Lift" function naturally brings out subtle nuances, helping to bring out the best in your sound. The 3-band EQ allows for intuitive and precise sound shaping, and the soft knee FET compressor adds smooth, musical cohesion. Additionally, the WET/DRY mix allows for easy parallel compression. Its sound, combining clarity with vintage warmth, will elevate the quality of your vocal and instrument recordings. This is a must-have for studio and home recording enthusiasts alike!
  In this review, it received high praise:
  "The preamps and compressors have a very clean sound."
  "The EQ doesn't distort the sound even when used aggressively, so you can immerse yourself in creating your own sound by adjusting the knobs as you feel."
  "The 1979 has a wide range of functionality, so even if you purchase it as your first channel strip, I think it's one you'll use for a long time."
  Please check it out.
