Heritage Audio i73 PRO 2 USB-C Audio Interface w/ Two 73 Style Class A Preamps Heritage Audio

THE FIRST EVER USB-C AUDIO INTERFACE WITH 73 STYLE CLASS A PREAMPS BUILT IN

2-In / 4-Out USB-C interface with two built-in pure Class A transformer coupled 73 style preamps. The i73® PRO 2 is finally a reality, making the Full Analog Experience of the Golden Era of recording available to everyone, everywhere and anywhere.

The i73® PRO 2 aims to provide musicians, producers and audio engineers with an easy path to that cherished analog experience that has inspired music creation since the early 70’s. The i73® PRO 2 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 2 to a computer.

As with all of Heritage Audio’s 73 style preamps, there are three 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 2 allows the user to route whatever the signal may be on to a DAW with true studio quality.

PLUG-INS

When trying to define what made the Golden Era of recording so appealing even by today standards Heritage Audio noticed that those legendary spots used just the right amount of gear when tracking, focusing on the music and the musician.

i73® PRO takes this concept to every musician’s home studio by supplying the right tools when monitoring their work, straight out of the box.

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.
