BAE1073DMP Desktop Mic Pre
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Designed as a desktop microphone preamp, the 1073DMP uses the same preamp and Carnhill (St Ives) transformers found in BAE’s 1073 and 1084. The standard Bootsy Collins modification adds a Jensen DI transformer, while two DI thru connections support an instrument-oriented setup. Phase reverse and 48V phantom power are available from the unit, and the built-in power supply is intended to make it more portable. Its construction follows BAE’s hand-wired modular design.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Desktop recording setups that need microphone preamplification with onboard 48V phantom power.
- Instrument setups needing a Jensen-transformer DI and two DI thru connections.
- Mobile work where a built-in power supply supports greater portability.
