The 1073 “lite” is a Neve 1073-style mic preamp and equalizer formatted for API 500-series and 51x Alliance enclosures. Unlike nearly all other 1073 style preamps built for this format, Joe Neil's design manages to house both the preamp and EQ into a single space. In Joe’s own words, “I call it a 1073 "Lite" since it has no filters, no line input, and only 2 selectable frequencies for the Low shelf. It has 2 selectable frequencies for the top shelf, including 5k to brighten up those pesky dull guitars, and 11 mid band frequency choices. The bottom board contains the mic pre, the mid band EQ components, the output section, and the power supply parts. The top board has the 2 EQ amps, the high frequency and low frequency caps, and all of the switching. They are connected together by a 20 pin header, and a 10 pin ribbon cable. The power is compatible with the traditional 500 rack +/- 15VDC.
