Brad Haehnel quote about the ARREL Audio CL-123 Channel Strip.
"I found the ARREL Audio CL-123 channel strip to be very open with an incredibly musical EQ. The various bandwidth switches are very useful. On guitars especially good as I could get a lot of gain with unnoticeable additional noise".

Matt Bissonette quote about the ARREL Audio R-601 Guitar Bass Splitter
"The ARREL Audio R-601 has been an answer to prayer for me. Usually when tracking guitars in my studio I constantly need to keep going back out in the room and readjust microphones and dial up sounds. The R-601 allows me to sit in the control room and with the cool remote control button I can just press the button and it brings up the amp I want to use. I can combine cabinets and record three at once if I want,I never have had that luxury before. And for bass it helps me to use distortion pedals and exterior amps in addition to my usual setup. Very cool idea!"

Matt Bissonette quote about the ARREL Audio EL-111 Dual Mic-Line preamp
"I love the ARREL Audio EL-111. I have used it on my bass amps and they provide a true replication of the sound. I have also used it for percussion instruments,acoustic guitars and vocals. I love it because I'm not a brainiac gear head and I need simplicity. I can hit the EL-111 really hard,actually the harder the better,and the peak light lets me know when I've gone too crazy. It's really simple and impossible to mess up."

Pete Doell - Universal Mastering Studios, Los Angeles - ARREL Audio Endorser !

31/01/2014
Pete Doell: "The fabulous ARREL Audio ML-118 unleashes the creative power of Mid-Side processing in an extremely musical fashion. Whether enhanced stereo imaging is desired, or taming unruly elements in either the center OR the sides (but NOT both), this unit does a wonderful job in a way that most other units fail to accomplish so well."
