Prototyping new gear is one of the best things that can happen to you in life. Seriously.

Some moments mean more than numbers ever could.

Tubecore 3U now residing at British Grove Studios, a place built by Mark Knopfler and filled with musical history. In the company of Guy Fletcher and Bill Wyman - faces carved by decades of rock ’n’ roll and countless concerts since the 80s, Tubecore feels right at home. Thank you, guys :)

Precision. Control. Character.
We love seeing our gear in serious mastering environments - exactly where dynamics matter most.

Springtime Reverb @ Audio Animals Ltd.

The IGS Springtime reverb in Audio Animals studio B. All analogue reverb, by far one of the best reverbs I've ever heard. It sounds so beautiful and alive. I've never been too much of a fan of coming out the box for reverb, but this is different. Most digital reverbs are highly comparable to the plugin version. Where the IGS Springtime is a true analogue piece with springs it's not emulating a reverb or digitally processing the reverb. It's analogue so it sounds very very special. Thank you for getting this over to try. I'm sold!

🔥 Burn-in time. Another batch of One LA 500 getting ready for their new homes.

Before any unit leaves our workshop, it goes through a proper heat run and stability check. Tubes warmed up, opto cell calibrated, bias verified, everything must behave exactly as intended.

IGS Audio One LA 500 has become our undisputed best seller and the most popular piece in our lineup. And honestly, we understand why.
Smooth optical compression, weight in the low mids, effortless control on vocals, bass and mixbus.

These 10 units on the bench will find their new studios next week.

Are there any One LA users here? 👀
Drop your setup in the comments.

New iQ505 batch just landed 🤩🤩🤩

This time with a new front panel color.
It appeared almost by accident… but we instantly knew it was staying.

What do you think?

iQ505 is a small equalizer with seriously big capabilities.
We managed to fit 15 controls into and 3 switches a single 500 series module.
That’s engineering density at its finest, no one before or after has packed this level of control into one 500 slot like this.

And yes: we don’t care about analog recall.

Our gear never crashes :]
No firmware updates.
No frozen sessions.
No compatibility issues.

Just pure analog control, exactly where you left it.

Compact format.
Full control.
Zero compromise.

✨ DACO Prototype #3 - The Final One ✨

The third prototype… and the very last step before production.
After months of fine-tuning the analog stage, we made the final choice: 6N6P-I tubes, delivering the deepest and most effortless low-end extension - down to an incredible 8 Hz.
DACO is fully transformer-balanced, featuring both classic RCA outputs and true balanced XLR connections for maximum dynamics, silence, and control.
In the audio path, we selected Mundorf MCap EVO Aluminium Oil capacitors - because every detail matters when the goal is pure musicality.

This is where Digital Precision meets Analog Soul.

📦 First units will be ready to ship in March 2026.

Stay tuned - the final sound is coming.

Meet DACO One - our upcoming tube-buffered digital-to-analog converter (DAC) designed to merge high-end digital precision with true analog soul.

The second prototype is finally here: now housed in a refined, almost finished chassis and powered by a completely redesigned tube power supply.

We’ve also implemented full transformer-balanced input stages feeding the tube buffer, bringing even greater depth, separation, and harmonic richness.

Connectivity? All in.
SPDIF, ADAT, AES/EBU, USB and Bluetooth on the input side.
RCA and XLR on the output side.

Step by step, DACO One is becoming exactly what we envisioned -
a modern high-end DAC with uncompromising tube character at its core.

Rare Build. Rare Opportunity. 👀

A peek inside the limited IGS 573 EQ module for the Panzer 500. Hand-built with our proprietary discreet amps for that iconic sound.

We only make 10 of these, once or twice a year.

The final 5 are now available. This batch won't last long.
