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, and it’s on display at the 2023 NAMM Show at the Anaheim Convention Center, booth 16120.
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.
Recommended retail pricing: Stand-alone 1073OPX USB/ADAT card — $795/£645; 1073OPX unit & ADAT card bundle — $4,395/£3,495. Go here for more specifics.
