Great sound, very simple.

PhilP, 18.08.2015

I use it for live mainly to give quality to vocals, and it does give a great amount of warm punch and quality. I have to say it's almost magic, maybe i'm just lucky that it works perfectly with my vocals. It helps the performance a lot.
The only thing I was a bit surprised about is that the module itself is actually bigger than I expected, it is really deep. So if like me you're choosing something small to travel do check measurements.
Another thing is that I didn't like it that much when pushed up all the way, the distortion I get from it is not interesting for vocals. Probably is for guitar and others. I use the gain about halfway and it gives a truly beautiful powerful quality.
I couldn't be happier for that price. I will definitely use it in the studio too and it will definitely be my go to preamp now for vocals, and surely other instruments too.

Well worth it

While this is the most basic of GA Pre-73's, it does the job - which is why I give it 5 for features even though you can get more.

Vocal recordings, in particular, sit in the mix more easily and are warmer - very useful when using budget large diaphragm condensers.

DI'd guitars and bass are also warmer than when DI'd straight into the interface (in this case, a Steinberg UR44).

The only word of warning is not about the box itself but a little advice that Thomann might want to add to the info ... if you use this with a box like the Steinberg UR, you'll need an In-Line Attenuator {e.g: Shure A15AS} to drop the level.

Otherwise,an excellent product, well recommended.
