Dan McKie and FabFilter

"I learned about FabFilter through reading magazines, and then trying the demos. I use them as inserts and as FX sends on various parts of my productions. I also use the synths for basslines and leads."

"I love the versatility and sometimes mind bending sounds they help you produce! My favourite FabFilter products are Timeless & Twin. But they all have certain features I like and always have a place in my productions."
