AMS Neve 1073 OPX

To mark the 50th anniversary of the legendary 1073® microphone preamp, we're bringing the story full circle with the launch of the 1073OPX, a brand new Octal Microphone/Line/Instrument Preamplifier that is designed to meet the needs of the modern studio environment.
With the launch of the 1073OPX, we've taken the 1970s classic and updated it for today's workflow by packing eight legendary 1073® remote-controlled preamps with Marinair® transformers into a 2U rack unit. Front and rear connectors give comprehensive connectivity to any Studio/Live/Broadcast environment, while modern remote-control software gives two-way control with Total Recall™ of all settings. Input sources benefit from the transformer-coupled input stage and can be connected directly to the front-mounted Mic/Line/DI input for recording in the studio control-room. The analogue and digital monitor signal path of the 1073OPX allows it to be used as a complete standalone I/O interface or as a live room remote preamp with a full, latency-free monitoring cue mix signal path. The optional digital I/O card comes with Neve's industry-revered mastering-grade converters with up to 192kHz/24-Bit A/D conversion over USB connection. This ensures that the unit can be used as a Primary Audio Interface to any connected DAW-enabled computer, as well as Primary and Secondary Dante™ connectivity for Audio-over-IP applications.

As far as rock legends go, few names resonate as deeply as Def Leppard's Joe Elliott. Known for his iconic vocals and songwriting prowess, Elliott's impact over the decades has been substantial. Joe’s home studio, ‘Joe’s Garage’ is where the magic is captured and perfected – and AMS Neve were lucky enough to get behind the scenes with Joe and Def Leppard’s long-standing and immensely talented Live/Studio Engineer, Ronan McHugh.


Established in 1988, “Joe's Garage” was initially conceived as the intimate space for capturing the essence of Def Leppard's "Adrenalize" album. Today, this studio stands as a testament to decades of musical evolution and, as Joe describes a “fun place”.


Joe offers a firsthand glimpse into the Def Leppard's sound recording hub, adorned with gifts from rock legends such as Ronnie Wood and Gene Simmons, whilst sharing stories from the early days of Def Leppard and discussing the challenges faced when producing Hysteria, which went on to be one of the best-selling albums of all time.


With the Neve 8424 being the first analogue console since 1988, Ronan talks through the decision to go with not one but two 8424 consoles, the reasons why they shifted from working “in the box” back to working on an analogue console and shares his insight on the Def Leppard 8424 workflow.
