i was reading a peace on aes this last year and saw a picture with no caption other than rupart neve.

in the pic he was holding what looked like a 16 chanel Neve mixing board that was rack mountable called the masterpeace or something. does any one have any more info on this thing i could not find any ting else in the mag about it.

Hi guys. I'm in the market for a new pre and I'm really interested in the Amek/Neve CIB. It seems like a good all-in-one solution for my needs. My question is, though, how much should I be looking to spend on one? I know that's a weird question, but I can't seem to find a consistent price and I don't understand why.

Hi

I am looking into getting a Neve preamp and maybe a Neve compressor.

Specifically the 1073DPD preamp and the 33609/J /JD compressor.

Upon investigating a bit about these prosessors, it seems some people are very emotional about specific models !

Some say that the 33609 compressor isn't all that UNLESS it is a 33609 A model. ?

:(

Hi I got an emu 1212 recently and some of you may have seen my earlier posts. All of my previous problems with gettin the hardware and software configured have been solved.
However now i notice that whilst i record the volume of the output rises and falls sporadically and when i play it back it stutters at times and makes popping noises.

I found this info on the AMEK webpage, Just in case you guys were interested.

After 15 years of a mutually beneficial and fruitful relationship, the Consultancy Agreement between AMEK and Mr. Rupert Neve has come to an end. AMEK is one of the group of Harman brands that is managed from the Potters Bar headquarters in the UK.

I JUST GOT A JOE MEEK VC3, AND WHENEVER I TURN ON THE PHANTOM POWER, I GET A LOT OF HUM AND HISS. IS THIS DUE TO THE CRAPPY WAL-WART POWER SUPPLY THAT CAME WITH IT? I HEARD THAT SOMEONE WAS EXPERIENCING THE SAME CONFLICT AND THEY PURCHASED A ROLLS PS-12 POWER SUPPLY AND IT MADE THE SIGNAL MORE QUIETER. PLEASE HELP, THANKS.

Hello all. Please excuse the long post.

Here's my situation. I currently do most of my recording DI (keys, bass, rhodes piano, synths) but have recently started to use mic preamps quite a bit more, as I'm now tracking drums (4 pres at a time). As I only currently have 1 mic preamp (2 channel UA 2108), I'm often stuck using the DIGI 002r's pres which kind of suck.

How would the Neve 1073 mic preamp clash wit the u87?
then into a Manley El-Op comp? For R&b/rap vocals, will we get a pro sound? We currently use 737s with our u87s, will we notice a big difference by replacing the mic preamps?
