It not only emulates all the circuit interactions of the hardware version (including all ten of its clipping points), but also the preamp characteristics when used with one of Universal Audio's Apollo audio interfaces. The headliner in this latest Plug-In Collection for UAD-2 platforms (VST/AU/RTAS), then, is simply called 1073. This earlier, less DSP-intensive version is included in the new Neve 1073 Preamp & EQ Plug-In Collection as the 1073 Legacy plugin, as is the even more DSP-friendly 1073SE Legacy version. The combination of legendary analogue circuitry and superior digital quality makes the 1073DPD the obvious choice as a front-end for recording to digital workstations.The Neve 1073 was one of the first EQs to be modelled by Universal Audio for its Powered Plug-Ins range many years ago, but due to the technological limitations of the time, it didn't capture all the non-linear characteristics that give the original its gorgeous sound.

Analogue insert points are provided ahead of the A/D converters, ensure the classic Neve sound is retained. Class A analogue outputs in XLR format are also found on the rear panel, controlled via adjustable front-panel ☑0dB Trim controls. Two rear-panel Mic inputs and Line inputs feed dual Class A gain stages, with adjustable Gain control and selectable 48V available on the Mic inputs. A unique feature is the Neve DSD (Direct Stream Digital) output, providing unsurpassed quality beyond PCM technology.ĭespite its power, the 1073DPD is remarkably simple to operate. In addition to Neve's famous Class A analogue, outputs are a series of digital options, including all standard PCM sampling rates up to 192kHz, selectable via convenient front-panel controls. With the 1073DPD, two Neve 1073 mic preamplifiers are complemented by superb Neve-designed analogue-to-digital converters that can capture a performance in any required format.

Its lush sound with classic Neve signature makes it the consummate mic pre for recording vocals, guitars, and all acoustic instruments. This classic design is the consummate mic pre for capturing vocals and musical instruments, with the added convenience of direct output to hard disk recorders or computers, thanks to the high-quality Neve-designed analogue-to-digital converters.įor those who don’t already know its legacy, the big, punchy sound of the mic 1073 preamp complements any musical genre, from rock to pop, hip-hop to rap, thrash to classical. The Neve 1073DPD combines two of their world-famous Class A Neve 1073 microphone preamplifiers with flexible 192kHz digital output capabilities, for modern recording environments – all in a single rackspace.
