Neve 4081
“ I recorded a flute, violin and voice with it and the quality of sound was incredible. The recordings I was able to achieve had an “immediate” quality to them with an incredible depth of sound – I won’t be recording anything without the 4081 as the front end from now on.” – Toby Wood (Recording Engineer)
The Neve 4081 Quad Mic Preamp builds on the incredible success of the 1081 and 1081R modules and provides both powerful control and legendary Neve sound. Perfect for vocals, ADR and Foley Recording, the Neve 4081’s features make it the number one choice for any studio, OB truck or live stage environment. Every function of the Neve 4081 can be controlled directly from the front panel or by remote control using a Mac or PC with Neve Remote Control software. This provides a simple and elegant solution for users of ProTools, Nuendo, Cubase and similar DAW systems. Multiple 4081 units can be linked together to create up to 64 independent channels of Mic Preamps or Line Level inputs – all controlled from a single computer. And now with Version 2.00 software, metering information is displayed within the Remote Mic Control window, which is passed back from the 4081 unit(s) to the Remote Mic Control software running on the computer being used for remote control.
