1970's Preamp and EQ - Near 1:1 Recreation

It's been recreated countless times - but never truly captured (until now!)

Built with Neural Amp Modeling, the SA1064 is arguably the most realistic recreation of the "Golden Era" of preamps.

The 1064 can be considered a precursor to the beloved 1073. Rich in harmonics, beautifully dense

Before the 1073, the 1064 was the go-to preamp for professional studios

Although overshadowed by its successor, many claim the 1064 is the superior preamp (even though they're nearly identical).

Using the same class-A circuitry and transformers, but with a slightly different EQ, the 1064 is familiar but distinct. You'll instantly recognize the classic timbre, but can't deny it has a (ever-so-slightly) unique feel.

Perfect for vocals, guitars, synths, drums, bass, or any instrument that needs that familiar vintage sound, the SA1064 offers what you've come to love, but now with accuracy unparalleled by any other plugin.

The SA1064 is a near 1:1 recreation of the original unit.

Carefully recreated with Neural Amp Modeling (NAM)

Each line input gain setting utilizes a distinct neural model - maximizing versatility and ensuring the original unit is faithfully represented.

Meticulously Designed EQ Filters

Painstakingly Measured and Modeled

The SA1064 utilizes traditional DSP to recreate the shape, Q-value, range, and variability of the original unit's design.

Classic Sound, Modern Amenities

A gain-compensated drive function opens up a huge range of sonic possibilities, while 2x oversampling ensures an accurate top-end, even when using aggressive settings.

A Mono mode reduces the number of neural models from 2 to 1, cutting the CPU usage in half when processing single-channel signals.

WARNING!

The SA1064 is NOT like other plugins

The NAM technology running behind the scenes is very CPU-intensive. Neural Amp Modeling results in the most accurate and nuanced recreation of audio hardware, but it may be too taxing for older computers.

Lower fidelity neural models reduce CPU, but at the expense of quality. For that reason, Sage Audio plugins only use the highest quality captures.
