ARTICLE N° 57535
  • Rupert Neve Designs Portico 5012H 2-channel microphone preamp.
  • Type of preamplifier: Solid State.
  • Number of Channels: 2.
  • Frequency Response: 10Hz-160kHz (@ 3dB).
  • 48V phantom power supply.
  • Analog Inputs: 2 x XLR (Mic).
  • Analog Outputs: 2 x XLR, 4 x 6.3mm Jack (Bus A, B).
  • Formart: half rack.
  • Input: Symmetric, using transformer based amplifier with low pass filter excluding frequencies above 150 kHz. Combines the advantages of an electrically balanced input with a real transformer. When phantom power is disengaged, it serves as a very high quality line input.
  • Input Impedance: 10,000 Ohms at + or - 20%
  • Noise: Measured at the Main Output: Impedance 150 Ohms Measured from 22Hz to 22kHz: With gain at unit level> -100dBu With gain at 66 dB> -62 dBu Equivalent input noise> -128 dBu.
  • Frequency response:
  • Main output, no load: at 10 Hz -0.2 dB at 160 kHz -3dB Main output: measured at the monitor monitor output of the Rupert Neve.
  • Designs 5014 "Buss Mixer": at 10 Hz -0.2 dB at 160 kHz -3dB.
  • High pass filter: Continuously sweeps the frequencies from 20 Hz to 250 Hz: curve: 12 dB / Octave.
  • Gain: Unit gain at + 66dB, in steps of 6dB.
  • "Trim": Adjustable potentiometer from -6dB to + 6dB.
  • Maximum Output Level: Transformer Balanced Output, 20 Hz to 40 kHz: + 25dBu ("clipe" just above + 26dB).
  • "Mute" simply mutes the main outputs.
  • Main output @ 1kHz, +20 dBu output level, no load> 0.001% (no higher level harmonics). "Silk" on: approximately 0.2% of secondary harmonics.
  • Main Output
  • At 20Hz, + 20dBu output level, no load: better at 0.01%.
  • Main output @ 1kHz, + 20dBu output level, no load, measured at the monitor amplifier output> 0.002%.
  • "Silk" function: The Rupert Neve 5012 mainly uses single-sided transformer circuits that exclude any risk of distortion. The silk button adjusts the frequency spectrum and delivers an extremely soft and musical sound.
  • Main Output: The "bus" output is intended to power the "bus" inputs of the Rupert Neve Designs 5014 and Portico ™ series modules.
  • Crosstalk: Measured from channel to channel> -90dB at 15 kHz.
  • Phantom Power: +48 Volts DC +/- 1%.
  • Power consumption 9VDC = 1.3 A at 12VDC = 1 A at 15VDC = 800 mA at 18VDC = 650 mA.
  • Rear panel power connector: 5.5mm X 2.1mm DC jack, positive in the center.
