The 31102 is very similar to the 1084 module, but without the separate line input. Essentially the 1084 is a hot-rodded version of the legendary 1073. It has the additional features of switchable top end (10k, 12k, 16k), Hi-Q on the mid frequencies (allowing it to have two different Q types - narrow or wide) and a Low Pass filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 31102 modules came standard in legendary Neve 8058\/8068\/8088 consoles. To many, this was the finest sounding Class A mic Pre\/EQ module Neve ever made, with lots of Neve mojo.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEQ controls:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelectable 10 - 12 - 16 kHz high shelf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow pass filter at 6 - 8 - 10 - 14 - 18 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh pass filter at 45 - 70 - 160 - 360 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow EQ points: 35 - 60 - 110 - 220 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHi-mid EQ points: 350 - 700 Hz - 1.6 - 3.2 - 4.8 - 7.2 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput attenuation from -10 to -80 dB in 5 dB increments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhase reverse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEQ bypass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHistory\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFormed in 1961, Rupert Neve \u0026amp; Co. was focused from the beginning on designing and building the highest quality professional audio components. After establishing itself in the marketplace, and moving from Rupert's house to a newly built factory in Melbourn, England, Neve went on to create three of its most iconic products: the 2254 Compressor\/Limiter in 1968, the 1073 Mic Pre\/EQ in 1970, and the 1081 Mic Pre\/EQ in 1973.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAimed at the broadcast market, these units were found in numerous custom-built Neve consoles of the day. And because so much of their work was customized, there are many variants on the basic 2254 Compressor and 1073 Mic Preamp, including different form factors, cosmetics, components and features.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsing Class A discrete, transistor designs, meticulously hand-wired and built to last, Neve became the world standard for excellence in broadcast and recording studio consoles. From the small-format BCM10 and Melbourn mixers, to the large-format 80 Series, these consoles continue to be treasured today, while standalone modules from them can be found in the racks of the best studios all over the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo this day, the most important Neve products from the late 60s and early 70s are still manufactured according to the original specs. The reason is obvious - no other gear has that ‘Neve sound’, and there is no substitute for the real thing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Neve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44451195781223,"sku":"471125","price":24995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/neve-31102-mic-pre-3-band-eq-pair-22262-22283-vintage_471125_1.jpg?v=1787096231","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/neve-31102-mic-pre-3-band-eq-pair-22262-22283-vintage","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
