Studio Survival: JAEL

We chat to JAEL about what he can’t live without in the studio.

Barefoot SoundType: Footprint03

These are my favourite monitors I have ever bought !

They look so cool, are compact and are built for serious audio pros for a great price. I came across these when my friend went to visit NAMM and told me about a 3 way speaker with MEME technology. I mix all of my own productions and these monitors are the best to my liking.

Why? MEME Tech.

The MEME Technology in these monitors is like having four monitors in one. You can switch between:

“Flat Response” for accuracy,

“Oldschool” for vintage NS10 vibes,

“Hi-Fi” to mimic home speakers,

“Cube” for mono and midrange clarity

This makes it so convenient to check how your mix sounds on different sound systems without having to buy more gear.

The  monitors are like small powerhouses of sound. Don’t let their size fool you—they hit hard with tight, punchy bass, super-clean mids, and highs so crisp they’ll make you rethink every mix. They’re basically the secret weapon for anyone who wants pro-grade sound without taking up half the studio. After getting these monitors, I immediately re-mixed all of my recent mixes and productions and they gave me a brighter spectrum of the mixes.

JAEL’s latest single D33P is out now.
