The Digidesign 001 was Digi’s entry level 24-bit system. It uses the Crystal Semiconductor CS4223 105dB codec IC to perform A/D and D/A. Line stages are handled by the TL074 opamp, and mic preamp duties are handled by a pair of SSM2017 instrumentation IC’s.
Analog Stages +
Mic Pres
We approach the 001’s analog stages in two ways. Although
there isn’t much in the way of replacements for the TL074,
we’ve chosen the OPA4134 as an upgrade. For the microphone
preamps, we replace the SSM2017’s with a pair of our
proprietary high-speed discrete instrumentation circuits.
You’ll find that they will compete with many high-end
microphone preamps.
The Clock
The 001 and the 002 share similar clock designs. Because of this, we
are able to modify the 001’s clock using the same circuit
we’ve designed for the 002. We start with two high frequency
free-running oscillators with discrete regulation, and divide them down
as necessary. Forget using that expensive master clock to improve the
001’s sound—we promise that you won’t
need it once we’re done!

Digi 001: $395 for clock and analog
These options give your 001 new life—once
we’re finished with it, it's simply not even the same unit.
Contact us
to schedule an appointment.
Here is how it works:
We schedule an appointment for the modification and then send you an
initial invoice for 50% down payment that is due within three days.
Payment can be made by credit card or through Paypal.
When payment is received we confirm your scheduled appointment.
You ship the unit to us so that it arrives two days before the
scheduled modification.
When the modification is finished we notify you and you then pay the
remainder of the cost.
We ship you the modified unit.
Please note that there is a cancellation fee of 30% of the scheduling
deposit.
If you wish to reschedule, we require two-weeks notice, and there is a
$25 rescheduling fee.
There is a $10 a day charge for units that remain on our shop for more
than seven days.
We wish we did not have to require these fees, but unfortunately they
are necessary in order for us to keep our prices low and to meet our
scheduled commitments.
