These Liquid Preamplifiers can conjure up tones made famous by Avalon, Focusrite, HELIOS, Manley, Milenia, Neve, Pultec, Telefunken, and Universal Audio, giving you a tremendous tone palette to select from.
The Liquid Saffire 56 also sports onboard DSP, giving you latency-free reverb, compression, EQ, and other great tools you need to track right in the first place. You also get DSP-based monitoring, which allows you to use these processors and set up advanced monitor paths, without latency. Now, add in Avid Pro Tools 9's amazing flexibility and plug-in power, which lets you edit, tweak, and mix your music to perfection, and the whole system comes together. And when you take $75 off the package, the Liquid Saffire 56/Pro Tools 9 bundle is one deal that's too good to pass up!
