Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of Arturia's 1973-Pre
Since the late 1990s, Arturia has received acclaim from players and reviewers alike for
designing state-of-the art software emulations of the venerable analog synthesizers from
the 1960s to the 1980s. From the Modular V, back in 2004, to Origin, a modular system that
was introduced in 2010, to the Matrix 12 V (2015), the Synclavier V (2016), and most recently
the Buchla Easel V, the DX7 V and the CMI V, Arturia's passion for synthesizers and sonic
purity has given demanding musicians the best software instruments for professional audio
production.
Arturia also has a growing expertise in the audio field, and in 2017 launched the AudioFuse,
a pro studio quality audio interface that features two proprietary DiscretePRO® microphone
preamplifiers and a set of top-notch AD/DA converters.
The ARTURIA 1973-Pre is the culmination of over a decade of experience in recreating the
most iconic tools of the past.
ARTURIA has a passion for excellence and accuracy. This led us to conduct an extensive
analysis of every aspect of the Neve 1073 hardware and its electrical circuits, even modeling
the changes in behavior over the course of time. Not only have we faithfully modeled the
sound and behavior of this unique mixer channel, we have added some features that were
unimaginable in the days the Neve 1073 was being manufactured.
1973-Pre runs as a plug-in in all major formats inside your DAW. It has easy MIDI learn
functionality for hands-on control of most parameters, and as a plug-in also allows
parameter automation for greater creative control.
