Key features

• •12-way precision rotary switch controls gain from 0 to 66 dB in 6 dB steps Continuously variable +/-6 dB level control Silk circuit, reduces negative feedback, adding harmonic content as needed Red Silk accentuates the saturation in the mid and high frequencies Same presence and sweetness found in standard Portico Series modules
• •With a big, bold preamp and the flexibility of variable Silk/Texture, Rupert Neve designed the 511 to combine classic sonics with 500-series value
• •Incorporating the 517's powerful preamp, the 5012's universally useful sweepable high pass filter, and the transformer-saturating power of a variable silk circuit derived from Neve's flagship Portico II Channel, the 511 is a Rupert Neve-designed mic pre for the masses
• •While it's challenging to design 500-series modules that are equal to their non-500 series counterparts, the team at Rupert Neve experimented with a number of different transformer and circuit designs so they could achieve the same presence and sweetness that is found in the standard Portico Series modules making them perfectly suited for the highest caliber studio environments
• •Input Section Input signals may be derived from Mic or Line sources (make sure 48V is off for line sources!)
