Neve has announced the release of the 1073OPX USB/ADAT, a new digital expansion card using the ADAT protocol that can be installed in any 1073OPX microphone preamp manufactured after October 2020.
The card offers two modes:
— USB/ADAT Hub mode that transforms the 1073OPX into an expandable USB audio interface capable of connecting up to 16 inputs and 10 outputs through a single USB connection;
— ADAT stand-alone mode for expanding an existing ADAT-compatible audio interface digitally via ADAT optical connection, adding eight Neve 1073 preamps and an additional stereo output to their existing audio interface.
