BAE DMP Dual 1073 Desktop Mic Pre

The BAE DMP Dual 1073 Desktop Mic Pre brings the unmistakable sound of the classic 1073 microphone preamplifier to a compact, dual-channel desktop format. Hand-built by BAE Audio, the DMP Dual 1073 delivers authentic vintage tone with modern convenience, making it ideal for studios, mobile rigs, and high-end desktop setups.

Each channel features a fully Class A, transformer-balanced signal path with premium Carnhill input and output transformers. This design produces the signature 1073 character: deep and authoritative low end, rich harmonic midrange, and smooth, musical highs. Whether recording vocals, guitars, bass, or drums, the DMP Dual 1073 adds weight, depth, and musical coloration at the front end.

The intuitive front panel provides stepped gain, output trim, phantom power, phase reverse, and dedicated front-panel DI inputs for instruments. With two perfectly matched channels in a rugged desktop enclosure, the DMP Dual 1073 is perfectly suited for stereo recording, dual-mono tracking, and producers who want classic analog tone without committing to a full rack system.
