Rupert Neve Designs RMP-D8 8-channel Microphone Preamp

The Legendary Rupert Neve Sound for Your Live Rig Consider the huge sound and impact of vintage Rupert Neve Designs studio gear, but in an 8-channel Dante remote-control microphone preamp tuned for your stage setup. The RND RMP-D8 has eight mic/line inputs, each with 1dB-stepped remotely adjustable Class A mic preamplifiers with 60dB of gain. Many prominent live sound engineers have incorporated Rupert Neve Designs’ analog studio equipment into their digital touring setups. The RMP-D8 now brings Rupert Neve Designs’ prized sound to front-of-house mixers, multi-room facilities, and venues of all sizes, replete with mastering-grade 24-bit 192kHz converters and full Dante connectivity. Classic Rupert Neve The RND RMP-D8 is built on modular mic preamp cards that use Rupert Neve’s well-known bespoke transformer designs. Many other Dante mic preamp designs are based mostly on a single integrated circuit for gain and tone. Not the RMP-D8. Each channel of the RMP-D8 features a full Class A mic preamplifier, feeding a bespoke transformer, similar to Rupert Neve Designs’ standalone preamplifiers. Mastering-grade conversion Many combo devices have low-quality converters that appear to be an afterthought. Not the RMP-D8. Years of painstaking study and listening testing, as well as RND’s considerable design skills, have gone into the development of its 24-bit/192kHz converters. Precision-controlled internal timing and improved jitter reduction allow the RMP-D8’s outstanding mic preamplifiers to capture the full intensity and delicacy of a performance. The RMP-D8 ensures that there are no weak links in your audio route. The new Dante standard for excellence The RMP-D8 takes Rupert Neve Designs’ iconic sound to the realm of the current Dante connection. The audio signal from the RMP-D8 is compatible with any Dante device used in a variety of applications, including concert halls, stadiums, clubs, recording and broadcast studios, places of worship, and educational facilities. The RMP-D8 is constructed strongly, with a durable, reinforced-steel chassis for improved RF shielding and redundant power sources for global operation. Rupert Neve Designs Rupert Neve is an audio icon whose circuitry inventions helped define the golden age of analog. Those of us who have had the opportunity to work on a Neve 8078 or its predecessors can attest to the fact that Neve’s Series 80 consoles were the zenith of hand-wired analog mixing desks. Mr. Neve has been at the vanguard of audio-circuit invention for almost 50 years, and his current firm, Rupert Neve Designs, continues to advance the state of the art with cutting-edge devices that sound amazing and intelligently solve the difficulties of the digital era.
