The 'Neve'


Neve Custom Series 75



With the release of the '1073 mic preamp/EQ' in 1970, and the '1081' released in 1973, Neve’s classic circuitry has consolidated their position in the professional audio industry.

Since then, a desire for ‘cleaner’ recordings using modern circuitry has resulted in classic circuitry becoming an option – but not the only option.

The development of technology and the digital world cannot be ignored however learning the fundamentals of signal flow through an analogue console can be advantageous as sometimes there is a specific quality that just cant be replicated 'In The Box'.



1961 was the year that a human being was first sent into space, and saw the launch of Telstar, the world’s first communications satellite – forerunner of the networks that cross the Earth today.

It was also the year that British electronics designer Rupert Neve formed the company that still bears his name.

From the very beginning, Neve Electronics specialised in the finest professional audio consoles and systems, utilising Class A designs and high-quality components to produce equipment unmatched in performance in the industry at the time.

Following a move to the Cambridge area, in 1964 Neve designed and built the worldÂ’s first commercial transistor-based mixing console for Philips Recording Studio in London.

The Neve name was established and the company had soon produced several custom consoles for distinguished studio clients.

Building on this success, the company moved into a purpose-built factory in Melbourn, near Cambridge, entering the broadcast field – in 1968 producing the famous '2254 Comp/Limiter' for ABC Weekend Television in the UK, followed by the world’s first solid-state switching matrix the next year – and making its products available in North America for the first time
