5017 Mobile Mic Pre / DI / Compressor
Microphone Preamplifier
From Rupert Neve Designs:
Comprised of a rugged, portable chassis with world-class preamp, compressor and DI circuits as well as two channel operation, Vari-phase, Silk and DI/mic blending capabilities, the Portico 5017 is an innovative and powerful tool for recording or live performance.
The 5017 provides two preamps: one tailored for Mic/Line sources, and the other for Instrument level sources. Each channel has a dedicated line output, allowing for the 5017 to be used in a multitude of ways. From having full control over a vocal mic + an acoustic guitar to capturing a guitar/bass DI and mic’d amplifier simultaneously, the 5017 gives the power to the artist.
Add an optical compressor and our Silk harmonics circuit to the equation and the versatility of the 5017 is undeniable.
