THREE DIFFERENT CIRCUITS. ONE APPROACH.

01 / Valve amplifier

SAK-TUBE

An amplifier circuit. All the way through.

Loaded valves, a shared power supply and magnetic memory. From a light touch to the output stage giving way.

Inside SAK-TUBE
SAK-TUBE valve amplifier interface with Drive, Power, Tone, Presence, Sag and Output controls.
12AX7 / EL34 · reactive load · 1× / 2× / 4×Windows x64 · v0.1.3

02 / Stereo bus compressor

SAK-BUS

Control the movement. Keep the weight.

A complementary VCA, a coupled timing network and two magnetic stages. Stereo compression with the circuit still connected.

Inside SAK-BUS
The shipping SAK-BUS interface: Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release, Makeup, gain reduction meter and sidechain, blend and processing controls.

03 / Transformer saturation

SAK-IRON

Quiet density. Heavy analog destruction.

A driven input circuit and a magnetic path with memory. Start clean, add weight, then push both stages into overload.

Inside SAK-IRON
SAK-IRON transformer saturation interface with Nickel, Alloy and Steel CORE profiles, IRON, MIX and automatic level compensation.

ENGINEERING / AN OPEN RECORD

The circuit matters.
So does the evidence.

We build original audio processors around interacting electrical models. What one stage does changes what the next stage receives.

The references, measurements and design decisions are part of the release. Published data stays distinct from a fitted parameter, an approximation or a choice we made ourselves.
