Rupert Neve Design's is proud to announce
that the
5015 Mic Pre/ Compressor and the
5088 Fully Discrete Analogue Mixer
have been nominated as finalists in the 2008 TEC awards for Outstanding
Technical Achievement.
Nominated in the category of Microphone Preamplifier Technology, the company says that the Portico
5015 combines the rich detailed performance of the Portico Series mic pre
with the sweet musical response of its compressor-limiter. Built around
Rupert's custom transformer designs, with features like "Silk",
"Feed-Forward/Feed-Back" modes, stereo link and dual mono/single channel
operation (preamp and compressor), the 5015 has unparalleled power and
flexibility.
Crafted from the ground up to incorporate Rupert Neve's custom input and
output transformers, 90V rails, and discrete, class A circuitry throughout,
the 5088 is nominated in the field of Large Format Console Technology. Rupert Neve Designs say that, with
a completely modular design and the sweet musical quality expected from Mr.
Neve, the 5088 represents a significant advance in the performance and
philosophy of audio processing.
Held on October 4th in San Francisco, concurrent with the fall AES
Convention, the TEC awards ceremony is the most respected event recognizing
technical achievement in audio. This year's nominations for Rupert Neve
Designs come after winning the 2006 TEC award for Signal Processing
Technology with the Portico 5042 "True Tape" FX.
