Universal Audio 4-710d 4-channel Microphone Preamp & Compressor

The Universal Audio 4-710d combines four 710 Twin-Finity mic pres into a single unit with A/D conversion and costs less than three original 710s combined! But that's not all. The preamps take a Class A FET preamp circuit and a completely separate Class A triode tube preamp and give you the ability to blend the two signals together to taste. While they were at it, Universal Audio also added a simple 1176-based compression section to each channel. Now it's even easier and more cost effective than ever to add a set of these fantastic hybrid preamps to your studio.
