Floatia Designs is a Tokyo-based custom pro audio manufacturer established in 2014. The company began with equipment built for personal recording use and expanded through the repair and modification of vintage outboard gear — including Neve units and Mark Levinson modules — before developing original products. That restoration work informs a design approach focused on practical sound quality rather than vintage reverence, with an emphasis on original discrete amplifier modules built without integrated circuits.
The lineup centers on handmade recording and instrument gear produced in small batches. Notable products include the TFDI-02 transformer DI, the HA-01SX and HA-01TX microphone preamp/DI units, the FETD-07 Amethyst preamp, and the OPTC-02 Emerald compressor. The company also produces API 2520-compatible discrete op-amps (FDOA-01, FDOA-02X), replacement modules for vintage Mark Levinson preamps (FLD-01, FPA-01, EQA-47, DCF-06, FLD-02), and dedicated power supplies such as the DPSU-24 and CLPS-01.
Alongside finished products, Floatia Designs sells PCB kits for DIY builders and offers studio system design consultation, mastering engineering, and repair services for vintage audio equipment.
Floatia Designs has 1 product cataloged on Equipboard, including Amp & Cabinet Simulators.
