{"product_id":"neve-1081-ch-demo-deal","title":"Neve 1081 CH (Demo Deal)","description":"Designed in 1972, the \u003cb\u003eNeve 1081\u003c\/b\u003e was originally conceived as a combined mic\/line preamp and equaliser section for the Neve modular consoles. A glance through the credits on today’s platinum-selling albums reveals that these vintage consoles are still widely used to great effect, confirming the 1081’s status as a truly classic component in a recording front-end or mixing environment. We are still hand-building 1081 modules in Burnley, UK much the same way as the original modules, using the original components, hand-wound transformers, and time-honed construction methods. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 1081 provides remarkable sensitivity, fast and musical response to transients, plus inimitable Neve equalisation featuring effective high- and low-pass filters designed to separate unwanted signal outside the passband. This gives users a flexible tool with which to shape new sounds and control any part of the audio spectrum. The curves and slopes have been carefully tailored to enable users to exercise maximum technical and artistic skill. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOver three decades of engineers have found the 1081 an indispensable tool for recording and mixing drums, bass and percussion. As with all Neve outboard gear, users are assured the highest quality signal acquisition, thanks to uncompromising Class AB circuitry, hand-wound Neve-designed transformers, and unrivalled attention to every last component and construction detail. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHighlights\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLegendary Neve microphone preamp and equaliser design (Class A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-built and wired precisely to original 1972 specifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 switchable EQ bands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHP and LP selectable filters (18dB per octave)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparate 48V phantom power supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolo button selects channel unbalanced output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeve-designed hand-wound transformers \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoth inputs transformer-balanced and earth free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrophone Input: Gain +80db to +10dB in 5dB steps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLine Input: Gain +20dB to -10dB in 5dB steps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput: Maximum output \u0026gt;+26dBu into 600 ohms; Output impedance 75ohms @1kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistortion: Not more than 0.07% at +20dBu output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFreq Response: +\/-0.5dB 20Hz to 20kHz, -3dB at 45kHz.
