Audient iD48

“In use, I find that the iD48 preamps sound better than those of the SSL 18. These preamps perform wonderfully! Sonic details are captured with exceptional confidence and clarity, and benefit from a soupçon of analogue sizzle. They truly do deliver the ‘console-like’ sound boasted by Audient’s marketing literature. Also, with a 100Hz low cut filter, polarity reverse, -10dB pad and opposing +10dB boost, the preamp can adapt to practically any source.” – MusicTech

This is the exact fully analog, discrete mic preamp circuit design featured in Audient’s acclaimed ASP8024-HE recording console. No emulations, no imitations — just genuine analog console mic preamps, right at your fingertips.

Next-Level Performance

The iD48 leverages cutting-edge 32-bit ESS DAC converter technology to deliver unmatched audio clarity, minimizing quality loss and maximizing performance during conversion. With an impressive 126.5dB dynamic range, you’ll experience exceptional detail, making it easier to catch subtle nuances and address potential issues with precision. Achieving release-ready results has never been this effortless.
