Here's what the "master" of mastering, Joe Lambert has to say about working with Ron DiSilvestro:"Ron is one of my favorite people to work with. He has all the bases covered when it comes to the important skill sets. A good listener, great tracking and mix engineer, knows how to get the best out of the artist, keeps them on schedule, fun to work with and still humble! Forge is a great studio to work in. It has all the toys we all look for but more importantly the rooms sound great and Ron is really taking the place to another level." -Joe Lambert, JLM Mastering
