Rupert Neve Designs Portico 5015 H Channel Strip comes with a faceplate that enables horizontal installation.
With independent transformer-coupled mic preamp and compressor-limiter sections, the fully analogue Rupert Neve Designs Portico 5015 combines the outstanding sound quality expected from a Rupert Neve design with the total flexibility required by modern recording studios.
As an additional routing option, the mic pre output may be routed directly to the compressor section.
The microphone input is balanced but not floating, being a variant of an instrumentation amplifer using a Transformer-Like-Amplifier (T.L.A.) configuration with a toroidal Common Mode Rejection Low Pass Filter that excludes frequencies above 150 kHz.
In addition to the 72 dB of gain, the Portico 5015 mic pre includes individually selectable phase, mute, phantom power, a swept high pass filter from 20-250 Hz, and the Silk circuit which yields the rich warmth and presence of the renowned classic designs.
The compressor section has fully variable threshold, ratio, attack, release and makeup gain with two selectable VCA modes that provide for exceptional control of any source material.
