OPTO COMP CROSS-GRADE
The AudioScape Opto Comp just got a facelift!
As you can tell from the picture, our Opto Comp looks a little bit different. In an effort to be even more true to the original design, we updated the Opto’s meter bezel so it’s much closer to the original’s retro-style. Along with the meter change, we have also added period-correct thumb screws up top. Everything looks just a little closer to 1965!
MK-609 PRECISION STEREO DIODE LIMITER/COMPRESSOR PLUGINMK-609 PRECISION STEREO DIODE LIMITER/COMPRESSOR PLUGIN
The MK-609 Precision Stereo Diode Limiter/Compressor is well known as one of the most classic bus compressors ever made, the original "Metal Knob" 33609 was based on an older venerated bus compressor design, the 2254, dating back to 1969. The 2254 was integral to some of the most iconic British consoles of yesteryear. By utilizing a unique diode-bridge circuit topology, this design uses an internal side-chain, rather than the direct signal, to make it's dynamic adjustments.
GOLDEN58 STEREO TUBE PREAMP / SATURATOR PLUGIN

AudioScape MAP D.AM-27 Dual Channel Mic Preamp
As you’ve seen, we’ve recently been introducing Deluxe versions of our standard products that include mods many of you have been requesting for years. We’re always listening to what you have to say! You are our North Star, and customer requests fuel much of our product development. We are happy to oblige, offering more options, while maintaining our traditional bread and butter products that so many rely on daily.
But, to be clear, there is one idea we will never subscribe to when it comes to mods on classic designs:
Our team recently had the privilege of catching up with John DiBiase, and spoke with him about his affinity for the 260VU, and how he used it on Taj Mahal’s 2024 Grammy-winning album.
In the audio world, of course, we only delight in its awesome applications for amplifiers, preamps, dynamics processors and microphones, completely ignoring the fact that from the beginning of the 20th century for nearly 70 years, throughout the industrial age, vacuum tubes were at the heart of computers, industrial control systems, televisions, telephony, and virtually all data transmission from land, sea, space and air.
At the turn of 2020 I had been given a seemingly simple task: produce a backing track for my daughter’s upcoming singing competition. It was an enjoyable experience but, little did I know, I was about to stumble into a very frustrating issue that inadvertently plagues modern producers — it is something I call “Upgrade Hell”. This is the constant need to upgrade software to maintain compatibility across a vast production landscape. And, as I quickly learned, things don’t always work out the way you think.
We’re often asked if we recommend putting the “XYZ-brand” T4B into our Opto Comp and DA-3A.
The answer is emphatically, NO! I’ll explain:
In 2017, during the development of the Opto Comp, I dug in hard repairing and deconstructing vintage T4A and T4B optical cells from vintage LA-2A’s (btw, some of these units even used 3 photocells instead of 2; shows how much they cared about matching metering to the actual compression back then!). Every one of them, literally, was built in a way I hadn’t seen from any other manufacturer before. This research informed our decision to start making our own optical cells, in the same tradition as the originals.
We get this question a lot. Selecting transformers is a funny thing: You can get them ready-made, off the shelf, or they can be custom made to your spec. We often choose the latter, but the choice is more complex than that. Let’s dive in:
Myth #1: The one transformer brand that you’ve heard of is the “best” to use in EVERYTHING
This is a question we’ve gotten a lot recently. Last week we discussed why we don’t sell all three revisions of the 76 style compressors in one box; this week we’ll discuss why we won’t offer an “all in one” approach with these legendary EQ circuits.
With the V1290 making it back to the site earlier this week, we wanted to share a little bit of the history behind our particular build of this class-A preamp.
No question, there are many options out there for “73” style preamp recreations. But when we decided we’d build one back at the beginning of this decade, we wanted to really do it right!
