Description
Rupert Neve 5254, two channels of iconic diode bridge compression, thoughtfully improved and refined for modern tracking, mixing, and mastering.
Since the early 1970s, Rupert Neve’s early diode bridge compressors have been revered for the punch & glue they bring to drums, instruments, and the mix buss – but these desirable characteristics were unfortunately accompanied by inflexible controls and fairly limited versatility. Rupert created the 5254 Dual Diode Bridge Compressor to capture the soul of these coveted compressors while providing modern updates including advanced timing control, significantly lower noise, fully stepped controls throughout, higher voltage power rails, and internal parallel processing capabilities.
The 5254 is specifically to provide a wide range of colours to impart unique personality and character to your tracks. This diode bridge compressor will impart weight, harmonically rich tonality that will effortlessly bring vocals, electric guitars, bass and drums to the forefront of a mix.
