RUPERT NEVE DESIGNS Portico II Master Buss Processor Black

Description

After many requests, the Master Buss Processor is now available in the new black color to celebrate Rupert Neve Designs' 15th anniversary.The Master Buss Processor is a creative tool that redefines the boundaries of traditional compression and limiting and is based on the discrete, Class A, high-voltage signal path that made the 5088 Mixer famous. Although it was originally conceived for mastering, the MBP quickly became a favorite processor for mix engineers, recording engineers, and even FOH engineers. Whether mixing an aggressive, bass-heavy EDM track or fine-mastering chamber music, the MBP always has something to offer regardless of the genre.FeaturesStereo Compressor/LimiterFull compression section for both channels, with attack, release, ratio, and threshold controlsSide-chain input with high-pass filter for both channelsFeedback/feed-forward controls for modern or vintage-style compressionTexture control with two Silk modes to add the classic Rupert Neve soundThe Blend control allows mixing the clean signal with the compressed one, to preserve transients while adding punchSimple and highly musical 1-knob limiter with Adaptive Release technology, allowing brickwall limiting that does not distort or affect levels below the thresholdThe Stereo Field Editor section contains independent controls for width and depth as well as their own EQ control to perfect the stereo field.Technical specificationsFrequency Response:Main Output, no load–3 dB @ 4Hz–3 dB @ 120kHzMaximum Output Level:The maximum output level from 20Hz to 40kHz is +24.5 dBuNoise and Total Harmonic Distortion@ 1kHz, +20 dBu output: Better than 0.006%@ 20Hz, +20 dBu output: Better than 0.20%As above, with Silk Blue activated: better than 2.5%As above, with Silk Red activated: better than 3.5%@ 20kHz, +20 dBu output: better than 0.020%Slew RateBetter than 4 V/uSCompressorThreshold: variable from -30dBu to +20dBuRatio: variable from 1.1:1 to 40:1 (LIMIT)Blend: variable from 0% to 100% CompressorGain: variable from -6 dB to +20 dBAttack: variable from 20 mS to 75 mS (0.1mS with “FAST”) Release: variable from 100mS to 2.2 SecondsPower Consumption.65A @ 117 VAC, .35A @ 220 VACFuse5mm x 20mm, 2.5 Amp, fast-acting, ceramic body – Bussman type GDA 2.5A or equivalent
