Experience the unparalleled power and richness of the legendary Rupert Neve Designs RMP-D8 mic preamp, now available through your network

Over the past decade, renowned live sound engineers have consistently opted for Rupert Neve Designs as their preferred analog equipment to complement their digital touring setups. The RMP-D8, featuring top-notch 24-bit 192kHz converters and seamless integration with Dante, brings a long-awaited treasure to the live sound realm: the unmistakable sonic excellence of Rupert Neve Designs.

The essence of the RMP-D8 resides in its modular mic preamp cards, which showcase the distinctive transformer designs crafted by the renowned Rupert Neve. In contrast to other Dante mic preamp designs that heavily depend on a single IC for both gain and tone, the RMP-D8 boasts eight fully-developed class-A microphone preamplifiers that power eight custom audio transformers. This ensures that the RMP-D8 upholds the exceptional quality standards set by Rupert Neve Designs' standalone preamplifiers.

The RMP-D8 sets itself apart from combination devices by prioritizing converters. With meticulous attention to detail, the 24-bit/192kHz converters have been fine-tuned over the years. The internal clocking is precisely controlled, and jitter reduction is enhanced, ensuring that the mic preamplifiers or line inputs can capture the complete range of performance. In the audio path of the RMP-D8, there are no weak links.

Features:

SIGNAL CHAIN The signal chain consists of 8 mic/line inputs that provide 48V phantom power, polarity reverse, input pad, and high-pass filter controls.
