Description

The Definitive 1073 Emulation for Your DAW
Carnhill Transformers, Blendable Saturation & Studio-Grade Filters

Heritage Audio 73JR Plugin faithfully replicates the iconic hardware preamp, featuring Carnhill Transformers (Oxford input/St Ives output) and Discrete Class-A Circuitry. The High-Pass Filter (20–220Hz, 12dB/octave) tightens low-end mud, while the Blend Knob enables parallel processing for hybrid clean/crushed tones. With 30–80dB Gain in 5dB steps and LOZ/PAD/PHASE controls, it’s ideal for vocals, drums, and mix bus coloring. Founder Peter Rodriguez notes: "This is as close as it gets to the hardware."

Ideal Use Cases

Parallel Saturation: Blend 0–100% Wet/Dry for modern-aggressive textures.
Mix Bus Glue: Stack multiple instances for analog console emulation.
Vocal Tracking: Add transformer warmth with 55–75dB Gain.
Bass Enhancement: Clean up sub frequencies using the High-Pass Filter.
Guitar Crunch: Drive the input for harmonic distortion with LOZ Impedance Matching.
