Universal Audio 710TF 710 Twin-Finity Single-Channel Mic Pre

Universal Audio 710TF 710 Twin-Finity Single-Channel Mic Pre

The Universal Audio 710TF, or 710 Twin-Finity, is a awar-winning radical UA mic preamp design that is capable of combining both the classic retro warmth of tubes with the transient bit of solid-state, all of this enclosed in a 2U, half-rack unit. The Universal Audio 710TF was designed specifically for adding the sonic inspiration and tonal versatility missing from generic audio interface preamps.

Between 100% solid-state and 100% tube, the Universal Audio 710TF's tone blending is continually variable, this offers a practically infinite range of unique preamp tones, and much more is the ability to easily dial-in your very own unique and personal sound. The Universal Audio 710TF is the only one that is capable of offering the best of both worlds, unlike the other sensibly priced solid-state and tube preamplifiers out there. The 710 Twin-Finity can also perform as well as everything in between, and it is just housed in one box, and very affordable to any serious project studio's budget. Includes a 19" rack-kit for mounting one or two units.

The Universal Audio 710TF is making the users capable to:

• Harness the distinct sonic properties of tubes and solid-state in one unique preamp/DI
• Unlock the potential of your mic locker with a powerfully versatile preamp
• Blend between tube and solid-state sounds for myriad textures and tones
• Easily track guitar, bass, or keyboards with the front panel 1/4“ Hi-Z instrument input

The Ultimate in Mic Pre Flexibility

In its carefully engineered build, in its innovative circuit design, which comes with a solid-state transimpedance input amp that is driving separate, solid-state gain stages and phase-aligned tube, at the same time, which are then combined to a single output, those where are lies the key to the The Universal Audio 710TF's sonic flexibility. The mix between the solid-state transimpedance stage and the 310 volt single-ended class-A triode tube stage is controlled by the use of "Blend Knob" labeled "∞". Between 100% solid-state and 100% tube the blending is continually variable and offering a the ability to easily dial-in your very own unique and personal sound and practically infinite range of unique pre-amp tones.

Drive for Days

Like all our other preamp designs, the 710 features dual gain-stage controls (Gain/Level) which can radically vary the amount of coloration and distortion by allowing you to crank up the input gain like a guitar amp. The VU meter features a unique "Drive" mode allowing you to see how hard you are driving the input stage.
