{"product_id":"golden-age-audio-pre-73-premier-378369","title":"PRE-73 Premier","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA Studio Classic Revisited in an Affordable Version\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PRE-73 PREMIER captures the spirit of console preamps that made recording history, featuring a circuit close to the preamp section of a 1073 module. The result: an instantly recognizable color, capable of thickening a vocal, adding density to a snare drum, or enriching an acoustic guitar without losing musicality. This \"transformer + discrete\" approach modernizes an audio design method inherited from the pre-integrated circuit era, providing an organic and flattering response.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho It's For and Its Uses in Home Studio and Professional Studio\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis preamp is aimed at musicians, sound engineers, and content creators seeking an \u003cstrong\u003eexternal preamp with character\u003c\/strong\u003e to step up from the built-in preamps of an audio interface. It excels on vocals (condenser or dynamic mics), guitars (mic or DI), bass on instrument input, and more demanding sources thanks to its \u003cstrong\u003ehigh gain\u003c\/strong\u003e. Whether recording or reamping line sources, it becomes a simple yet highly expressive tool, perfect for building a solid tracking chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eControl, Color, and Sonic Options Serving the Recording\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStepped Gain and Switchable Impedance\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe stepped gain control (23 positions in 5 dB increments) facilitates recall of settings and consistency between sessions. The switchable mic impedance (1200 or 300 Ohms) allows adapting the mic load to refine attack, level, and color, especially useful with certain dynamics and ribbons.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHigh-Pass Filter and \"Air\" to Open Up the High End\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe switchable high-pass filter (80 Hz or 200 Hz) helps clean up vibrations, proximity noise, or overwhelming low frequencies right at the input. The \"Air EQ\" function adds a boost in the extreme high frequencies (+3 or +6 dB at 30 kHz) to enhance presence and a sense of airiness without hardening the upper mids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of channels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEQ\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eFilter\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum gain\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e80 dB\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSwitchable Air EQ boost\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e+3 or +6 dB at 30 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMicrophone gain range\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e20 to 80 dB\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBalanced line outputs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eXLR and 6.3 mm jack\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:3;--wb-r:7;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSwitchable microphone impedance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e1200 or 300 Ohms\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003edesktop format\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:4;--wb-r:8;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSwitchable high-pass filter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e80 Hz and 200 Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Golden Age Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54358815277331,"sku":"378369","price":469.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/389d141ff950b0c55a4a9d1be1809d860e7bfd99_GA_1083710.jpg?v=1792570035","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/golden-age-audio-pre-73-premier-378369","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
