Description
The Heritage Audio i73 Pro Edge is a 12-In / 16-Out USB-C interface with two built-in pure Class A transformer coupled 73 style preamps, line and instrument inputs, and eight channels of ADAT Lightpipe I/O. It incorporates the same Class A transformer-balanced circuitry as Heritage Audio’s classic 73 style preamps, providing the end user with the ability to track with all that classic mojo and vibe but, for the first time, straight from the i73® PRO Edge to a computer.
As with all Heritage Audio’s 73 style preamps, there are 3 options for input, so whether the end user wants to run vocals through the MIC preamp with up to 70dBs of gain, an electric guitar/bass through the fast, dynamic JFET DI or the clean LINE inputs, the i73® PRO One allows the user to route whatever the signal may be on to a DAW with true studio quality.
That is why all i73 PRO interfaces come packed with a growing collection of DSP powered recording effects modeled after Heritage Audio’s own outboard and Heritage Audio’s private collection of vintage gear. These unique DSP powered audio effects are also supplied in native form with easy recall function so everyone can capture tracks into their DAW (both processed and unprocessed) and complete the job taking advantage of a modern home studio workflow.
