The Session Recall (+) series was developed by Stam Audio in response to modern studio workflows that demand total recall capability. While purists appreciate the hands-on nature of analog, commercial studios and busy engineers needed a way to recall exact settings instantly. Stam developed a motorized potentiometer system that maintains the feel and resolution of traditional pots while adding digital recall. The 1073 EQ+ was among the first products to feature this technology, representing a significant innovation in the boutique analog market—authentic vintage sound with modern convenience.
