Universal Audio 4-710D 4-Channel Tone-Blending Mic Preamp with DI and Dynamics

Each input has the ability to add tube circuits as much or as little as needed. 1176 compression and limiting also built in. This unit is in VERY good condition. It has a always been used in my smoke free home studio.

I made some very good sounding records with this. These are actual photos of the unit. Included is everything you need to expand this 4-710d with another 4-710d, giving you a total of 8 inputs via 1 Adat light pipe connection with your interface. I've had up to 5 units (20 preamps) running with no problems using this method. The additional items are 1.

Light pipe, 1 word clock cable, 4 audio patch cables, 1 power cable. The Universal Audio 4-710d combines four 710 Twin-Finity mic pres into a single unit with A/D conversion and costs less than three original 710s combined! But that's not all. The preamps take a Class A FET preamp circuit and a completely separate Class A triode tube preamp and give you the ability to blend the two signals together to taste. While they were at it, Universal Audio also added a simple 1176-based compression section to each channel. Now it's even easier and more cost effective than ever to add a set of these fantastic hybrid preamps to your studio. Phase-aligned "tone blending" of tube and solid-state. Newly designed 1176-style compression/soft-limiting circuit on each mic channel. Discrete JFET DI with 2.2M ohm ultra-hi-Z impedance. 70dB+ of gain, +48-volt phantom power, pad (15dB), phase invert, and low-cut filter (75Hz). Front-panel hi-Z input (switched from mic/line). Rear-panel XLR mic input, XLR line input, and XLR line output. Digital output via dual ADAT optical or AES/EBU (DB-25). 8 channels of high-quality 24-bit/192kHz A/D conversion. Get the best of both modern solid state and classic tube technology with the Universal Audio 4-710 Tone Blending Mic Preamp. The 4-710 features 4 microphone/line preamps with one of a kind tube and solid state blending abilities. Each channel boasts 1176 style compression circuitry with fast and slow settings and can be blended seamlessly between continuously variable phase aligned 100% tube and 100% solid state signal path. It also features four additional line inputs for a total of 8 channels of beautiful analog to digital conversion. This is a brilliant combination of classic and modern technologies resulting in a seamless, feature rich unit. Four TEC Award-winning 710 Twin-FinityT microphone/line preamps. Dual-path 285-volt Class-A tube and transimpedance solid-state preamps. Phase-aligned tone-blending of tube and solid state circuits, creamy to crunchy. Newly designed 1176-style compression circuit per preamp channel. JFET Direct Input with 2.2MO ultra Hi-Z impedance w/auto input override. Large backlit VU meters for flexible metering of input drive, gain level, and gain reduction. 75 Hz low cut filter.
