Timeless 73-Style Preamp for Characterful Sound
At the core of the i73 Pro One is the 73-style preamp, providing up to 70dB of gain. This preamp captures the vintage Class A circuitry that defined the sound of many iconic recordings. The i73 Pro One’s transformer-balanced design delivers the harmonic richness, warmth, and definition you need to make your recordings shine. Whether you’re using a condenser, dynamic, or ribbon mic, the i73 Pro One provides ample gain for low-output passive ribbon mics, allowing you to focus on the artistic choice of mic, not the technical limitations. This preamp ensures that your mic selection brings out the best in your performance, creating an expressive and sonically rich sound.

Multiple Input Options for Maximum Flexibility
The i73 Pro One is designed with versatility in mind, offering a wide range of input options. It includes a mic/line input via a combo XLR jack, as well as an additional line input through a 1/4-inch jack for instruments. If you're working with electric guitars, bass, or other line-level instruments, you can also use the dedicated JFET hi-Z instrument DI input, which is perfect for ensuring that instrument signals are captured clearly and with the proper impedance. These flexible input options make the i73 Pro One ideal for a variety of recording and mixing tasks, offering seamless integration for instruments, vocals, and more.

Real-Time DSP-Powered Mixer for Seamless Monitoring
One of the standout features of the i73 Pro One is its onboard DSP-powered mixer. This real-time mixer provides flexible monitoring with independent mixes for speakers and headphones. The ultra-low-latency DSP processing ensures that your monitoring experience is both smooth and immediate, giving you precise control over your audio without any noticeable delay. Whether you're tracking vocals or mixing a live performance, the i73 Pro One’s virtual mixer allows you to create the perfect listening environment, with precise adjustments made in real-time.
