We are Interphase Audio
We design and hand-build unique pro audio gear
Malcolm Toft and myself started Ocean Audio late 2012, to again offer the pro audio community classic, analogue products, building on the heritage of Trident and MTA.
Ocean Audio took off rather well, but late 2015, Malcolm announced he wanted to retire, and be no longer involved with Ocean Audio.
Since then, I have been bringing in new designers, setting up manufacturing, working out new products, talking with a lot of industry professionals, veteran and young producers, retailers, musicians, distributors, engineers, DJ’s and even young kids still in training. Getting all their feedback and combining this into the design of classic analogue products, upgraded for the 21st century workflow.
These years have been big fun and we achieved amazing results.
Because of Malcolm’s retirement, all Malcolm Toft designed Ocean Audio products are end-of-life and are no longer produced.
For years, a whole group of designers has been working on new products.
We combined British design and tradition, French flair, Italian style, German grundlichkeit, Belgian concensus and Dutch dynamics. In short, the best of the EU and the UK.
We’re incredibly proud of what we've achieved. You can find more info about our designs on the other pages of this website.
To avoid all confusion between Toft designed products, and our new products, and since we actually took a fresh start, the brand name has been changed from Ocean Audio to Interphase Audio.
We don’t doubt you’ll like the new Interphase Audio products.

Bruno Wynants, and the international Interphase Audio team
We are based in the Ardennes, in the South of Belgium.
A 30 minute drive in any direction will take you to the abbeys brewing the finest beers in the world. Orval, Rochefort and Chimay to name just a few. These breweries cherish the ancient art of handwork and attention to detail.
While our products don’t have anything to do with beers, we honour the work of the monks by offering the same tradition of hand-craft and attention to detail.
Each of our products is constructed with respect for decades or even centuries of craftmenship.
All modules, parts and components are checked, double checked and triple checked.
And like the Trappist monks, we prefer not to be rushed.
To limit our ecological footprint, we work with local craftsmen as much as possible.
We take great pride in our work, and will go out of our way to make sure that each part/module we build is 100% perfect.
The downside of this is that supplies are limited so we can only build a limited amount of products or modules for our consoles a month.
Striving for the highest quality, we have no intention to change this production method, and have absolutely no intention
to set up production in China.
Depending on the amount of products/consoles we are building when you place your order, it may take some time between order and actual delivery. But we do of course keep you informed about the build progress.
