AMS Neve 1073OPX USB/ADAT Card

The new 1073OPX USB/ADAT card introduces two new modes of operation that will take your recording and mixing experience to the next level.

The first mode is the USB/ADAT Hub mode, which enables you to transform your 1073OPX into an expandable USB audio interface. USB/ADAT Hub mode provides up to 16 inputs and 10 outputs via a single USB connection, making it easier to integrate analogue gear into your digital workflow. This feature is especially useful for those who need to mix and record with multiple sources simultaneously, providing a comprehensive and streamlined USB solution.

When using ADAT standalone mode, you can add eight Neve 1073 preamps and an additional stereo output to your existing audio interface, providing a significant upgrade to your recording setup. This mode is perfect for those who already have an ADAT-equipped audio interface and want to enhance its capabilities with legendary Neve sound.

The USB/ADAT card provides seamless integration with your digital audio workstation, allowing you to record and playback high-quality, 24-bit, digital audio up to 192kHz sample rates in USB/ADAT Hub mode, and sample rates up to 96kHz in ADAT standalone mode via S/MUX protocol.
