{"product_id":"golden-age-project-pre73premier","title":"Golden Age Project PRE73PREMIER – Single-Channel Microphone Preamplifier","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe PRE-73 PREMIER is a one-channel vintage style microphone-, line- and instrument preamplifier. The signal path uses only discrete components like resistors, capacitors and transistors. The in- and output is transformer balanced, using two different transformers, each one optimized for its purpose. This is the way audio components were built before integrated circuits became available.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe circuit used in the PRE-73 PREMIER is similar to the preamp section in the classical 1073 module with a corresponding sound character that is warm, punchy, sweet and musical. These classic characteristics have been heard on countless recordings through the years and it is a versatile sound that works very well on most sound sources and in most genres. The essence of this sound is now available at a surprisingly low cost, making it available to nearly everyone. -Bo Medin, October 2018\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt; No integrated circuits in the signal path.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt; 14 dB output pad allowing the user to overdrive the output stage and transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt; A simple but effective 4-step LED output level meter.The output level control makes it possible to make fine gain adjustments and also to overload the main gain stage(s) for more character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt; Maximum gain in mic mode is 80 dB, enough to handle passive ribbon mics with quiet sound sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt; Switchable impedance in mic mode, 1200 or 300 Ohm, will change the tone of most mics.
