Description
Rupert Neve Designs Portico 5015-H (Horizontal) Mic Pre/Compressor
ไมค์ปรีแอมป์+คอมเพรสเซอร์ Neve Portico 5015-H (Horizontal) Mic Pre/Compressor components into one compact สำหรับการใช้งานแบบแนวนอน
The Rupert Neve Designs Portico 5015 microphone preamp/compressor puts two great Portico components into one compact rackmountable package! The Portico 5015 uses the same stellar transformer-coupled mic preamp and compressor/limiter featured separately in the 5012 and 5043 Portico modules. You get all-analog, low-noise performance with flexible signal routing, making Neve’s legendary sound quality a perfect match with even the most modern recording setups. Add that magic tonal touch to your signal chain’s front end with the Portico 5015
Features:
- Two great Portico components in one half-rack chassis
- Premium preamp
- Impressive compressor
- Low noise, high performance
Silk
Much could be written about this feature, suffice to say, that it gives a subtle option to enhance sound quality in the direction of vintage modules. The Silk button reduces negative feedback and
adjusts the frequency spectrum to provide a very sweet and musical performance. We suggest you try it and make your own judgment.
Level Meter
-30 dBu to +22 dBu With reference to the output
Mute
Cuts of the output signal post metering. Be sure to mute the outputs before engaging phantom power. High Pass Filter
The High pass filter
is a valuable aid in any signal chain but particularly so in a microphone preamplifier. Signals between 20 and 250 Hz can be attenuated, leaving the range above this
unaffected. This gets rid of building rumble, air handling motor hum etc.
Phantom Power
Provides 48V phantom power to microphones
Phase Inverts
Flips the phase of an incoming source 180 degrees
Compression
For signals below the “threshold” level that has been set, a compressor provides a linear path allowing signals to be amplified without the gain being adjusted in any way. When signals exceed the “threshold” level, the gain is reduced in a controlled manner that depends on the Ratio that has been set.
Gain
GAIN range provided is from -6dB to +20 dB. ?As already noted, when compression has taken place, it may be necessary to increase the overall gain to restore the apparent program level
Ratio
Range from 1:1 to LIMIT (i.e. 40:1)
Threshold
Range from -30dBu to +20dBU
Attack time
Range from 20 mS to 75 mS.
Release / recovery time
Range of RELEASE time is 100 mS to 2.5 Seconds.
Stereo operation
When the LINK Push-Button is engaged on two channels of Portico compressors connected via the link inputs set to approximately the same values, gain reduction on both channels will be the same to preserve Stereo balance and center imaging.
Ducking
When the LINK Push-Button is engaged and the link input is connected to another Portico series compressor with LINK engaged, the signal passing through one the compressors, may be used to control the amplitude of the Portico compressor its connected to.
Reduction meter
A reduction LED METER is provided that show GAIN REDUCTION in the compressor.
REDUCTION is calibrated in dB covering the range -1 to -22 dBu, reading from right to left,
