AEA RPQ 3 Channel Ribbon Mic Preamp RPQ3 – die dritte Generation. Der AEA RPQ3 Vorverstärker nutzt unser neuestes Schaltungsdesign der 3. Generation – das sauberste und musikalischste, das wir bisher entwickelt haben. Damit bietet auch er all die Qualitäten, für die Vorverstärker von AEA bekannt sind, in optimierter Form – vom extrem musikalischen Klang über die kraftvolle Verstärkung bis hin zur ultrahohen Impedanz. Gleichzeitig verfügt er mit dem CurveShaper™ EQ über ein leistungsstarkes Werkzeug, mit dem du den Sound deines Bändchenmikrofons direkt am Anfang des Signalwegs steuern kannst. Mit den einstellbaren Reglern für tiefe und hohe Frequenzen hast du volle Kontrolle über den bändchentypischen Nahbesprechungseffekt und kannst die hohen Frequenzen feinfühlig erweitern. Gleichzeitig verleiht der Hochfrequenz-Filterboost deinem Signal mehr Präsenz und „Luftigkeit“, während der Tieffrequenzregler schnell und unaufdringlich Bassanhebungen entfernt – und das natürlich unabhängig für jeden Kanal. Eigenschaften Zwei Kanäle mit 81 dB rauscharmer JFET-Verstärkung CurveShaper™-EQ für hohe Frequenzen und Nahbesprechungsregelung für niedrige Frequenzen Mikrofon- und Line-Eingänge Umschaltbare Phantomspeisung, Polarität Line/Mikrofon NoLoad™ 10k Ohm Hochimpedanz-Schaltung für bessere Transienten, einen besseren Frequenzgang und eine höhere Ausgangsempfindlichkeit
AEA RPQ500 Preamp The RPQ500 module, designed after the successful RPQ preamp, provides the same ultra-clean, high-gain signal path that has earned AEA preamps their great reputation, in a 500 series package. The RPQ500 has been enhanced with additional features, turning it into a workhorse tool for your API 500 compatible rack. The preamp delivers the bandwidth and quietness needed for high resolution recording. JFET circuit topology provides all the dynamics, subwoofer bass, and fast transients that your microphones can record. The input impedance of 10,000 Ω means the RPQ500 will not load down a mic and change its sound. Low Energy Storage™ circuit design instantly recovers from overloads for superior dynamic performance. The CurveShaper™ offers a natural option for sculpting your sound right at the start of the signal path. Switchable and tunable low frequency (LF) and high frequency (HF) controls allow you to tame proximity problems and provide HF extension and slope control. The high-frequency CurveShaper™ excels at adding a touch of air or presence, and the low-frequency control can remove boxiness and boominess in a fast and unobtrusive way. The bottom line is a versatile channel strip that will deliver an unadulterated performance in any application. The Line/Mic switch bypasses the microphone gain stage and allows the EQ to be used for tracking with other preamps or during mixdown. Add the output level control and the RPQ500 becomes a high-quality processing tool that can be used for mixing and mastering when combined with summing racks and mixers such as the Purple Audio Moiyn or the Roll Music Folcrom. The original RPQ with CurveShaper™ was designed to fully capture every nuance of ribbon microphones: vintage or modern, passive or phantom-powered. Engineers have discovered that the RPQ also complements their moving coil, tube and solid-state mics. By virtue of its sonic qualities and versatility, the AEA RPQ500 is the tool of choice for all microphones whenever a true and pristine signal path is needed.

In its basic 8-channel configuration you get 8 channels of mic/line preamps plus 16 channels of DAW control and 16-channel analogue summing at mixdown. And eight auxiliary buses, and eight group buses. And 5.1 monitoring.There’s a ‘classic Neve’ look and feel to the controls, but take a closer look and you’ll see they’re ultra modern too: every switch is ‘soft’. The benefits go far beyond letting you customize your set up to suit the way you work. It also means every routing decision and every switch setting can be saved and instantaneously reset. Add the legendary sounding Neve analogue EQ and optional dynamics cassettes and you can instantly recall these settings too. Just think of the reconfiguration time that saves when you’re juggling multiple projects in your studio.

AMS Neve Genesys G32 (32 Input 16 Fader) In the beginning, there was analogue, and it was good. It was warm, it was intuitive, and Neve–with the industry’s favourite mic preamps, flying fader automation and hand-built-in-England quality and reliability–was the brand to own. If you could afford it. Things change. Along came digital workstation technology – less warm and much less intuitive, to be sure, but cheaper and very flexible – to put more mixing power within reach of the smaller studio. But guess what… not everything changed. People welcomed digital’s flexibility and power, but they also wanted Neve’s analogue warmth. The trouble was, that meant juggling two mixing surfaces and spending valuable control room time sorting out a mess of wiring and a mass of interface problems. We at Neve knew we could come up with a better solution. Welcome to the brave new world The brief to our design team wasn’t just to create a brand new console that encapsulates the best of both (digital and analogue) worlds. We also asked them to see if there wasn’t a way to make owning a Neve console a realistic prospect for smaller studios – without compromising on sound quality. They did it. Genesys, hand-built in our UK factory, combines superb analogue design and true Neve preamp circuitry with hands-on DAW control and connectivity for Pro Tools, etc. And it’s modular, meaning you don’t have to wait until you can afford the full 64-fader system to become a Neve-equipped studio. In its basic 16-fader configuration you get 16 channels of mic/line preamps plus 16 channels of DAW mixing and 32-channel analogue summing at mixdown.
