Neve 1073DPX

Enhance Your Sound with Dual 1073 Preamps
The 1073DPX brings you a modern twist on the classic 1073® preamp, featuring two channels of Neve's renowned Class A design. Each channel includes a 3-band EQ with fixed high-frequency and switchable low and mid bands for cut/boost. Plus, there's a high-pass filter to refine your audio.

Double the Power, Compact Design
Modernized and compact, the 1073DPX crams two 1073® preamps into a sleek 2U 19" rack. This setup is perfect for diverse recording needs. For instance, capture stereo setups like piano or drums with both channels. Or use them independently, ideal for singer-songwriters combining vocals and acoustic guitar.

Iconic Sound, Streamlined Build
Equipped with exclusive Marinair® transformers on input and output stages, the 1073DPX stays true to the classic 1073® sound. The discrete Class A topology, famous in the 1073®, remains intact. Modern production techniques, including our SMT technology, enhance this legacy while keeping the critical audio path true to traditional through-hole methods.

Effortless Gain Control
The 1073DPX boasts unique 1073® gain staging via a 5dB stepped Elma switch. Gain levels remain precise across the range, eliminating the need for a mic/line switch. You get three distinct gain stages from the independent transistor-based preamps, accommodating DI, line, and microphone inputs.

Harmonically Rich Preamp
Experience up to 80dB of microphone gain with the 1073® preamp. Its ingenious combination of gain stages delivers the sought-after harmonic saturation and musical drive that defines the 1073.

Versatile Inputs and Outputs
With front and rear input switching, the 1073DPX integrates seamlessly into your setup. It offers switchable front combi-connectors, perfect for direct recording. Additionally, dual instrument DI's enable efficient recording of instrumental duets.

Fine-Tuning Made Easy
Independent rotary level pots mimic Neve® console faders, offering precise control ranging from -inf to +5. This aids in crafting the perfect recording signal for your DAW.

Precision Metering
Featuring two 7-stage LED meters with PPM ballistics, the 1073DPX provides accurate monitoring. These meters cover various signal points, showing gain added post preamp, overall EQ gain change, and final output gain.

Efficient Monitoring and More
With built-in headphone monitoring, the 1073DPX offers latency-free mono or stereo monitoring. It even allows standalone jamming through its channels, without requiring other equipment to be powered on.
