Zero Distortion Technology Preamp

Earthworks' 1022 2-channel preamp is as professional as it is no-frills. There are no bells and whistles on the 1022 — and no hum or distortion either. If you’ve been looking for a microphone preamp that conforms to the highest standards of professionalism, you’ve found it! The sum of noise plus all types of distortion is 1 part per million. What that means to you is that distortion and noise is so miniscule, it’s practically non-existent! In the real world, the one you hear with your ears, the 1022 is perfect. Each channel has an XLR input, and you can apply phantom power via a front panel switch. The phase can be reversed and the channel muted by other front panel switches. Transparent gain is switchable from 5 dB to 60 dB in 5 dB steps. What’s more, the 1024 has a 10 volt nominal output capability to take advantage of the capabilities of 24-bit digital.

Sweetwater Advice

Bart Good
Though it's not talked about often, the Earthworks 1022 is one of the cleanest preamps ever made. It sounds great, is extremely transparent, and boasts some of the best technical specifications of any preamp - including a THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) of near zero (an amazing 0.0001%!)! If you want to hear only the pure signal coming from your mic with no noise, this is the preamp you should be considering. It's clean to the extreme!
