Classic Emulation
Each preamp is equipped with relay-controlled analogue circuitry based on the Focusrite ISA 110 – a legendary staple of the classic Focusrite Studio Console.
Utilise all-analogue Air to apply a couple of high shelves (simultaneously shifting your impedance to 2.2kΩ), increasing your high frequencies by 4dB in the process.
Authentic Audio, Every Single Time
You'll retain the natural detail and nuances of your sound sources thanks to 118dB of dynamic range, paired with 129dBu EIN. Ultra-low noise and crisp, clean signals of astounding clarity are assured via the completely balanced signal path.
