My love affair with RME products now goes back nearly 10 years, from the moment I was invited to move to Los Angeles, California USA from my home country The Netherlands. In those ten years my career has been a dream come true in my eyes as I have worked and still am working with the very top elite of artists in the US and internationally, mostly through my work with legendary producer and 15-time Grammy winner David Foster as a co-producer, mixer, programmer, arranger and engineer.
This sounds absolutely wonderful and it absolutely is but it also means a lot of hard work, crazy hours and insane deadlines. As I consider myself one of the new-breed of multi-facetted musician/producer covering all different aspects of modern cutting-edge music productions within the highly flexible digital world of computing, working at this level requires the utmost in power and even more so, day in day out complete reliability. I simply cannot afford any downtime or technical hold-ups whatsoever and RME has been giving me the most trustworthy products I can rely on on a daily basis, from session to session. I own and operate a total of 4 identical custom high-powered workstations spread over 2 different locations here in Los Angeles, all powered with a wide range of RME hardware and have truly never ever experienced any problems whatsoever which -in this quickly evolving world of cutting-edge music technology- could be called a small miracle in itself.
This is why I am and will remain a faithful customer to this brilliant company producing a wealth of ingenious and thoroughly stable products that flawlessly get every type of job done, each and every single time.
In simple terms; RME, you guys rock!!! Keep up the great work!!!
