Uses and abuses of audio gear! Here I'm showing how the Tonograf overdrives with drum tracks. Driving them hot with a line amp (grey box on top) and 20dB inline pads on the outputs allows us to crucify that germanium output stage into blissful harmonic soft clipping. Absolutely love the sound of these little things! . Available right now from @makenoiseproaudio (UK), and also directly from Atomic Analog here in Reykjavík. . Also link in the bio for the great demo video that @audioanimals made of this chunky little EQ! . . . . . #tonograf #studiogear #proaudio #germanium #eq #equalizer #germaniumunobtainium #atomicanalog #handmadeiniceland #tab #500series #vintagegear #studiosilo #studiosiloiceland #boutiquestudiogear #saturation #harmonics

The Shadow OP-6; Electrically a meticulous recreation of the RCA OP-6. Aesthetically a very nice looking piece of studio equipment that took years in the making. Solid aluminium knobs, elma switch for stepped gain control in 2dB steps, large chrome toggle switches, gold plated connectors throughout, chrome handles, and a 1950s style wrinkle paint finish that is just awesome. . Built to order with custom options and custom engraving possible. Get in touch directly!

Montage montage; a Tonograf EQ being assembled! Our faithful recreation of the legendary TAB W95 EQ from the 1960s, which took quite some years to finalise. Simply put, these modules are really something special. Such a unique design both in the equaliser itself and the amplifier stages within. Fitting just as comfortably within someone's mix chain as it does in a recording setup where EQing on the way in is how you like to do it... Commitment!! . Available right now from @makenoiseproaudio in the UK, with just a few remaining in stock there. For the rest of the world you can order them directly from me here. . Get in touch soon before this batch gets snapped up! Only 30 pieces being built.... 😵🤓😁🔥 . . . . . . . . . . #tonograf #studiogear #proaudio #germanium #eq #equalizer #germaniumunobtainium #atomicanalog #handmadeiniceland #tab #500series #vintagegear #studiosilo #studiosiloiceland #boutiquestudiogear #saturation #harmonics

This is how we do it in Iceland... Pushing the boundaries of normality to a breaking point... Living on the knife edge of law & order, regulations and prohibitions... . . . . . . . . @kaffikvorn #coffeecartel #sennheisercrimesyndicate #vintagegear #localcoffee #coffeeordie

Landing back to the workshop today, unpacking, and reminiscing on all those beautiful deep-nerd discussions that were had at @superbooth_berlin 😍🔥... I also managed to bring a few little gems home that had been waiting for me there; vintage Haufe transformers which will hopefully go into a limited run on a future product, some GDR cassette tapes, and of course some Eckmilker passive filter modules. . . . . . . . #coldplaybehaviour #haufetransformers #coffee #workshop #jetlag

Thank you Berlin and @superbooth_berlin , you have been lovely! Now it's time to lug my 100kg of analog diva costumes onto the plane bound for Reykjavík... . At the show we debuted our very new Collab project with @inorganic.audio ; a real reverb chamber in East iceland accessible over the internet. We used it in our live performances, mostly sending vocals from @dj.flugvel_og_geimskip 🤗. . Thanks a million to Jonas for helping me with the show, and also a huge thanks to Maxx @riesenbosch_audio for lending us the coffee equipment! (That's me & him in pic.4) . For the tons of you who I had chats with, I will email you very soon to continue those valuable conversations ♥️🔥. . . . . . #superbooth26 #tradeshow #fuckinghandmadeiniceland #heavyluggage #proaudiogear

I just went to the @superbooth_berlin to see my friends from Iceland. @dj.flugvel_og_geimskip sang for a headphone session at the Icelandic booth. The signal was sent by Vinny @atomicanalog to his remote echo chamber at @studiosiloiceland in Stöðvarfjörður, then returned to the listeners drenched in epic reverb.

ATTENTION! a thief with a Dutch accent, long hair, and glasses was caught on camera running away with a pair of our Tonograf EQ modules at @superbooth_berlin yesterday. Some friends have told me he is one of those YouTubers... There is a reward offered for any information on this person. Thank you! . . . . . @whiteseastudio #theft #superbooth26 #germaniumunobtainium #studiogear #gearreview
