ments, both FT1 and FO1 are a dream in hybrid setups. You get hands-on analog shap- ing and full DAW integration. That means total recall, automation and multi-instance flexibility, ideal for fast-paced sessions, remote collaboration and mix revisions.” And for MI retailers, that shift toward hybrid setups presents a unique opportunity. “This is practical, pro-level gear that simplifies complex workflows,” Dahlgaard said. “That makes it a strong conversation starter and an easy recommendation for modern studios.” Freqport is rethinking what analog hard- ware can be in today’s era. Rather than force a compromise between analog sound and digital convenience, the company has created a seamless fusion of both. “Freqport isn’t just a new product, an- other interface or effects box, it’s a new product category, redefining how analog hardware fits into modern production workflows,” Dahlgaard said. Right now, the flagship FreqTube FT1 is Freqport’s hero, according to Dahlgaard. “It’s a four-tube, multi-instance analog processor with full DAW integration; and it [has] become a go-to for its warmth, tonal flexibility, and plugin-like ease of use,” Dahl- gaard said. “We’ve also just launched the FreqInOut FO1, which is transforming how people work with outboard gear.” COMMUNITY-DRIVEN APPROACH As Freqport continues to gain momentum among modern producers and hybrid studios, the team is already looking to the horizon with plans to grow their ecosystem and push the boundaries of what analog gear can do in a digital world. Thanks to an engaged network of users on Discord, a steady stream of firmware feedback, and an active group of beta tes- ters, much of what Freqport evolves into is directly shaped by the people who use it every day. “Looking ahead, we’re focused on ex- panding the Freqport ecosystem — more channels, more creative control, tighter in- tegration with different DAWs and control surfaces, and more ways to bring analog hardware deeper into digital workflows,” Dahlgaard said. From the home studio to the mastering suite, Freqport is reimagining scalability, working toward solutions that bring the same fluid interface and pristine tone to setups of every size. But it doesn’t stop at internal develop- ment. Freqport is actively exploring collabo-
rations with third-party hardware brands, powered by their proprietary Analog Har- mony technology. “The goal remains the same: bring the soul of analog into the speed of the digital age,” Dahlgaard said. Between the active Discord channel and beta testers, Freqport’s development roadmap is deeply collaborative — and very bright. “The connection [with our community] matters to us,” Dahlgaard said. “We’re al- ways listening. Whether it’s feature requests, setup tips or wild new use cases we hadn’t
even thought of.” This open collaboration has helped Freqport evolve in real time, with real us- ers helping shape not just new features, but entirely new ways of thinking about hybrid workflows. “If you’re reading this and thinking, ‘This is what my or my customer’s studio has been missing,’ then jump in,” Dahlgaard said. “We’re just getting started, and the best ideas often come from outside the lab. We’re not just building gear, we’re building a community.” MI
