Eight Legendary 1073® remote-controlled Preamps with Marinair® Transformers, USB and Dante digital connectivity taking the Classic Neve preamp sound into the future. Our 1073OPX and 1073OPX digital card bundle offers great value. The digital option will be shipped within the unit unless otherwise stated.
Launched in 1970, the 1073® soon became the mic preamp of choice for leading producers and engineers and has since become the world’s most desirable preamplifier. Designed and manufactured in England by AMS Neve to this day, it’s unique tonal quality, warmth, low-mid punch and subtle harmonic distortion gives studios of all sizes the most prestigious front-end for their recordings.
The 1073OPX continues the 1073® pedigree, packing eight legendary preamps into a 2U rack unit. Front and rear connectors give comprehensive connectivity to any Studio/Live/Broadcast environment and modern remote-control software gives two-way control with Total Recall™ of all settings with Save/load feature. Mic input sources benefit from the Marinair(R) transformer-coupled input stage and sources can be connected directly to the front-mounted Mic/Line/DI input for recording in the studio control-room.
The 1073OPX’s analogue and digital monitor signal path allows use as a complete standalone I/O interface or as a live room remote preamp with a full, latency-free monitoring cue mix signal path. The optional digital I/O card comes with Neve’s industry-revered mastering-grade converters with up to 192kHz/24-Bit A/D conversion over USB connection for use as a Primary Audio Interface to any connected DAW-enabled computer as well as Primary and Secondary Dante® connectivity for Audio-over-IP applications.
The new 1073OPX USB/ADAT card introduces two new modes of operation that will take your recording and mixing experience to the next level.
The first mode is the USB/ADAT Hub mode, which enables you to transform your 1073OPX into an expandable USB audio interface. USB/ADAT Hub mode provides up to 16 inputs and 10 outputs via a single USB connection, making it easier to integrate analogue gear into your digital workflow. This feature is especially useful for those who need to mix and record with multiple sources simultaneously, providing a comprehensive and streamlined USB solution.
The second mode is the ADAT standalone mode, which allows you to expand an existing ADAT-compatible audio interface digitally via ADAT optical connection. When using ADAT standalone mode, you can add eight Neve 1073 preamps and an additional stereo output to your existing audio interface, providing a significant upgrade to your recording setup. This mode is perfect for those who already have an ADAT-equipped audio interface and want to enhance its capabilities with legendary Neve sound.
The USB/ADAT card provides seamless integration with your digital audio workstation, allowing you to record and playback high-quality, 24-bit, digital audio up to 192kHz sample rates in USB/ADAT Hub mode, and sample rates up to 96kHz in ADAT standalone mode via S/MUX protocol.
Overall, the new ADAT card for the 1073OPX is a must-have for audio professionals who are looking for a reliable and versatile audio interface that can handle all their recording and mixing needs. With its advanced features, including USB/ADAT Hub mode and ADAT standalone mode, this card provides an unparalleled audio production experience that is sure to impress.
