From Our Research Team:

Zero Distortion Technology! Great performance!

If you've been looking for a microphone preamp that conforms to the highest standards of professionalism, you've found it! Earthworks' 1024 Pre is a microphone preamp with a sound as clear and clean as their acclaimed microphones. On the 1024 Mic Preamplifier, the sum of noise plus all types of distortion is 1 part per million. What that means to you is distortion and noise so miniscule, it's practically non-existent! The 1024 gives you four pristine channels in a single rack space. 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. Easily one of the finest mic pres available!

A Masterpiece by David Blackmer

by Graham Leftwich from NY

Music Background: Pro Musician, Producer/Engineer, Band and Orchestra Director
Having used the Millennia, Grace and Benchmark preamps this Earthworks unit is in a league of its own. It's as true to the source as they come. This thing transmits such a startling 3D image it's al... read more [+]most haunting. It's dead quiet and has gobs of headroom and gain. The beauty is that the 1024 delivers the precise characteristics of what ever mic you hook it up to. Of course paired with an Earthworks mic the combo serves up a vividness that has to be heard to be believed. If I ever see fit to add coloration into my mix I would rather start with the cleanest and truest signal possible and then process after for effect. Without a doubt the finest preamp I've ever owned. A masterpiece by the legendary David Blackmer. close [-]

Outrageous job guys! It was a perfect order. My guitar arrived ready out of the box and tuned, cleaned, etc. Thanks a million. I have found the place to do my future buying. The prices are great and the service is second to none. Excellent service!
