Product Description

The Universal Audio 4-710d is a boutique quality, four-channel microphone/line preamplifier with unique tube and solid-state tone blending capabilities, perfect for a wide range of microphone and instrument sources. This versatile multi-channel preamp offers selectable 1176-style compression circuitry on each channel, plus four additional line inputs feeding eight channels of pristine analog-to-digital conversion. Building upon UA's classic analog design approach, combined with smart modern features, the 4-710d is the most flexible preamp in the UA lineup.

Features

- Four TEC Award-winning 710 Twin-Finity microphone/line preamps
- Dual-path 285-volt Class-A tube and trans impedance solid-state preamps
- Phase-aligned tone-blending of tube and solid-state circuits, creamy to crunchy
- Newly designed 1176-style compression circuit per preamp channel
- Eight channels of high quality 24-bit A/D conversion
- Selectable sample rates up to 192 kHz
- Digital output via dual ADAT optical and AES/EBU DB-25 connectors
- 8-channel soft limiter (switchable for all channels)
- 1-year Limited Warranty

At the core of the 4-710d are four channels of tone-blending Twin-Finity mic preamps with true-bypass 1176-style compression, including specially tuned "fast" and "slow" settings. Each of the four mic preamp channels allows for continuously variable phase-aligned tone, between a 100% tube and 100% solid-state signal path. Send and return jacks are available for external processing or signal access.

The eight analog inputs are digitized via ultra high-quality 24-bit A/D converters at selectable sample rates up to 192 kHz. Digital output is available via dual ADAT lightpipe or AES/EBU DB-25 connectors, facilitating integration with most popular audio interfaces. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Universal Audio products.

What Our Customers Are Saying About zZounds "I "discovered" zZounds about 2 years ago & was curious about their "Play as you Pay" installment plan. I am a musician so, I am sometimes strapped for cash. Without this plan I would have never been able to get the gear I need!" - customer on May 8th, 2012

Customer Reviews
2.5 out of 5 (2 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "It could have been a nice addition to the studio if it wasn't for the terrible quality control of these units."
Sound: Sound was good. Very clean. Feature: The tube blend feature is nice. It added fullness, maybe a touch boomy on the 100-200Hz range. We tried it on acoustics and vocals. Many cool output and insert possibilities. Ease of Use: After a little tweaking you can get some decent tones. Quality: We tried three units!! From noisy inserts, to wacky input levels between channels and terrible gain stages like moving the knob a hair and the gain would jump up. Value: WIth these quality control issues for a 2000 dollar unit I can not recommend it. And I had high hopes for it because Universal Audio makes great products. Very disappointed. Manufacturer Support: I just returned it to Zzounds. I lost a month over these three attempts. Gotta give kudos to Zzounds with the Returns department. They were prompt and no hassle. The Wow Factor: See above. Overall: See above.
