The Neve 1073LBEQ provides a
Neve 1073 EQ circuit in a single 500 Series module. The 1073 is widely
considered the world’s premier mic preamp & EQ module, delivering
the unique Neve sound featured on some of the most famous recordings of
the past 40 years.
The big, punchy sound of the classic Neve 1073 module complements any
musical genre, from rock to rap, jazz to classical. Its lush sound with
classic Neve signature makes it the consummate mic pre/EQ module for
recording vocals, guitars and acoustic instruments of all descriptions.
With the 1073LBEQ module, the highly sought-after classic EQ sound is
now available in a 500 Series form-factor.
Highlights
Legendary three-band EQ design
When integrated with 1073LB preamp, the combination is 100% discrete and genuine 1073 mic pre/EQ
Rotary controls provide accurate adjustment of the 1073 three-band EQ and high pass filter
Signal presence LED illuminates green from a level of -25dB and red from a level of +24dB
Switch for EQ IN/OUT function, with LED indication
Electronically balanced classic Neve circuits used in Line Input
and Line Output stages for standalone module use. These stages are
bypassed and the 1073LBEQ module is 100% discrete when combined with the
1073LB mic preamp
Audio Processing Insert design allows the audio to/from the
1073LBEQ module to be inserted into the audio path of an existing 1073LB
(modules must be fitted in the same rack)
High frequency concentric knobs perform two functions: HF shelf control and High Pass Filter control
Fully screened module packaged in Mu-metal case eliminates stray electromagnetic fields from Lunchbox PSU or other module types
The 1073LBEQ provides the legendary sound of Neve in a remarkably simple
format. A line level input feeds an electronically-balanced EQ circuit
with three bands of adjustable EQ and a high pass filter, which can easily
be switched in/out. The output is also an electronically-balanced line
level output. A signal presence LED and Neve’s clever Audio Processing
Insert design is also integrated into the module.
The 1073LBEQ module can be inserted between the input and output stages of the 1073LB module, creating a true 1073 classic audio path.
This mono unit is the perfect solution for studios and audio engineers
looking to bring in the very essence of the Neve 1073 EQ sound to their
portable racks.
Note: The Neve 1073LBEQ will not work
with the A Designs 500HR 2 Slot rack or the Empirical Labs EL500 2 Slot
500 Series Rack due the physical size of the slots in those particular
racks not being able to accommodate the dimensions of the module. The
module will fit in all other new 500 series racks that we carry.
