Amalgam Audio

Amalgam Audio is a passionate and innovative company based in Riga, Latvia, born out of a genuine love for electric guitars and the timeless sound of vintage tube amplifiers. Over the past decade, we’ve carefully curated a collection of iconic vintage amps—each with its unique personality and story—ensuring that our work is deeply rooted in authenticity and tradition. Our journey began with a simple passion for music and quickly evolved into a commitment to preserving and enhancing the classic tones that have defined generations. At the heart of our work is our newest project, Amalgam Captures. Inspired by our own hands-on experience with real tube amps, we have developed an innovative approach to digitally capturing the distinct sound and character of these legendary pieces of gear. By utilizing a full-volume, DI capture process, we ensure that every amp is recorded exactly as it was meant to be heard—free from compromise. We replicate not only the pristine sound quality but also the subtle nuances that only come from meticulously maintained hardware. Our capture process is both rigorous and refined. We work with our collection of vintage, boutique, and replica amps using the exact configurations and cabinets originally intended for their optimal performance. This process, which includes careful level-matching and the creation of multiple EQ presets (Thin, Bright, Balanced, Warm, and Fat), provides musicians with versatile tonal options tailored to various musical genres—ranging from Classic Rock, Psychedelic, and Pop to Funk, Country, Jazz, and RnB. Every capture is a testament to our unwavering commitment to quality, precision, and the belief that digital technology can honour the authenticity of vintage tones. We blend our technical expertise with our artistic passion to deliver products that empower musicians to explore and express their unique sound. Join us in celebrating the legacy of classic tone, where passion meets precision in every note.
