AMS Neve has announced at the AES show that it has begun shipping its
Neve 8803 dual channel equalizer and filter.
Part of the exclusive 88 series collection, the Neve 8803 is designed to deliver the legendary Neve sound in a convenient 1U rack unit. The EQ circuits used on the 8803 are based on the classic Neve 8108 design, but with enhancements to the flexibility of frequency and Q ranges. Balanced Inputs and +/-20 dB of Trim are followed by two 12 dB per octave filters. Frequency selection is continuously variable on all bands with ranges of 33 Hz to 440 Hz, 120 Hz to 2 kHz, 0.8 kHz to 9 kHz and 1.5 kHz to 18 kHz.
Like the other units in the Neve 88 series collection, the 8803 features recallable settings; a USB port connects the unit to either a PC or a Mac and a utility program can be used to store and recall settings. The 8803 is an essential tool for creative flexibility — analog outboard can be used alongside workstations and their settings recalled whenever required.
