Tierra Audio has appointed Synthax Audio UK as UK and Ireland distributor for its professional audio products. Synthax will now be the point of contact for all Tierra Audio products in the UK and Ireland, providing sales and support to customers operating in the studio, live sound and broadcast audio markets.
Founded in 2018 in Spain, Tierra Audio specialises in the creation of premium eco-friendly studio hardware, designed for use in professional recording, mixing and mastering applications. All Tierra Audio products are handmade at the company’s headquarters in Madrid, using high-quality components selected for their sonic qualities and long-term durability.
With a range that includes microphones, preamps, compressors, equalisers and summing mixers – as well as a selection of ‘flavours’ inline preamps – Tierra Audio devices are designed to help musicians and producers add colour to their music, with founders Javier Pascual Soriano and Esther Gutierrez’s fondness for analogue warmth evident in every product.
The company also has a strong focus on sustainability, using recycled and reusable materials throughout the production process, as well as continuing to develop new ways to optimise energy consumption and environmental footprint. All packaging is completely plastic-free and uses fully recyclable and biodegradable materials.
Tierra Audio joins RME, Ferrofish, Calrec, DirectOut and Dynaudio Pro monitors in the Synthax Audio UK portfolio.
‘We were very impressed by Synthax Audio and think this will be perfect for our goals in growing the Tierra Audio brand in the UK and Ireland,’ says Tierra Audio CEO and co-founder, Javier Pascual Soriano. ‘Both nations have fantastic musical histories and continue to create globally popular music to this day, and we can’t wait to see our equipment become a part of that legacy.’
‘We’re delighted to be involved with this young and dynamic company,’ says Synthax Audio UK MD, Martin Warr. ‘Javier and Esther’s enthusiasm for developing characterful audio products is very clear to see, and we were particularly impressed by their commitment to ecological and environmental sustainability. The fact that the products sound so good is the icing on the cake, and we’re sure Tierra Audio will be a fabulous complement to the other brands in our portfolio.’
Tierra Audio products have already found support from engineers around the world, including a collaboration with Grammy Award winning Mix Engineer Dom Morley for the company’s upcoming Gravity Mix & Master compressor, as well as producers and musicians Steve Baughman, Jae Deal, Afsheen and Nico-The-Owl.
