Description
Rupert Neve Designs Portico 5017 Mobile Mic Pre/DI/Comp with Variphase
ไมค์ปรีแอมป์,Di box ,คอมเพรสเซอร์ แบบ2 ชาแนล Neve 5017 Mobile Mic Pre/DI/Comp designed for studio recording, live recording, and live performance applications
The Rupert Neve Designs Portico 5017 DI/Pre/Comp Mobile Channel with Variphase Control is designed for studio recording, live recording, and live performance applications. This portable combination preamplifier and direct box is encased in a rugged chassis and features two channel operation, variphase control, silk control, single-knob compression and the ability to blend both microphone and instrument channels.
Features:
- Blend DI and Mic Channel
- Two Channel Operation
- Silk Control
- Mic Gain from 0 to 66 dB
- DI Gain from 0 to 30 dB
- Mic Polarity Invert Button
- +48V Phantom Power
- Phase Sweep Control
- Internal Jumper for Routing Compressor
- Internal Jumper for Comp Time Constant
Two Channel Operation
With two transformer coupled outputs, the 5017 has separate line outputs for the DI/Blend and Mic signals when the blend control is set to fully DI. The mic output is always independent.
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.
Mic Gain
Mic gain is from 0dB to 66dB. Overall gain to restore the apparent program level
DI Gain
DI Gain is from 0dB to 30dB
DI input
Balanced or unbalanced Hi-Z input for instruments
High pass filter
The high pass filter is a valuable aid in any signal chain but particularly so in a microphone preamplifier. Signals below 80hz can be attenuated at a rate of 12db / octave, getting rid of building rumble, air handling motor hum etc.
Phantom power
Provides 48v phantom power to microphones. Controlled by a switch on the back of the unit.
Phase invert
Reverses the polarity of the mic input
Threshold
When signals exceed the “threshold” level, the gain is reduced at a controlled 2:1 ratio, with attack and release time constants set to standard or fast depending on the internal jumper setting.
Indicators
Indicators on the 5017 denote signal presence and clipping on both DI and mic signals, as well as compressor activation.
Internal jumpers
Two internal jumpers in the 5017 can be set to change the compressor from the mic channel to the di / blend channel, and to change the compressor time constant from standard to fast.
