Tone Shaping Preamps put character on every take

Volt 1\'s Tone Shaping Preamp delivers up to 60 decibels of gain and offers three character modes: Warmth adds the rounded glow of a tube preamp, Focus brings the clarity of a solid-state design, and Shine lends the open lift of a British Class A circuit. Switchable 48-volt phantom power lets you run your favorite condenser mic, and 32-bit converters running at up to 192 kilohertz preserve every nuance of the performance. For tracks that have the energy and fullness of studio records — not the thinness of demos — simply hit record and let the Volt 1 Gen 2 handle the rest.

Record, stream, and mix anywhere

Because Volt 1 draws its power from USB, you can set up a session wherever inspiration strikes: just connect your laptop, tablet, or phone and start tracking. Volt 1 works with Mac, Windows, iPad, and iPhone, and it plays nicely with any major DAW. Built-in loopback also lets you blend a live mic with computer audio for podcasts, livestreams, and video calls, a real boon for content creators. Moreover, the included UAD Volt Studio bundle provides top-notch instrument, effects, and utility plugins like the Teletronix LA-2A, the 1176 Classic FET Compressor, Pure Plate Reverb, Galaxy Tape Echo, and a pair of UAD guitar amps, alongside LUNA and third-party extras such as Melodyne Essential. For a complete mobile studio in a single box, the Volt 1 Gen 2 is tough to top.
