The award-winning 710 Twin-Finity is a radical microphone preamp design from UA that combines the classic retro warmth of tubes and the snappy transients of transistors in a half-rack width, two-rack height unit. The 710 has been specifically designed to provide greater sonic versatility and inspiration that most preamps typically found in audio interfaces lack.Tone blending is variable throughout between 100% tube and 100% transistor, giving you a virtually infinite palette of unique preamp tones plus the ability to easily dial in your own signature sound. There are plenty of transistor and tube preamps on the market at reasonable prices, but the 710 Twin-Finity is the only one that offers the best of both sound worlds - as well as all the nuances in between - all in one unit and at a price point that any serious project studio can afford. Includes a 19" rack mount kit for installation of one or two units.
