The carefully designed union of these two elements is key to the RNDI-8’s unique\u003cbr\u003e\naccuracy, tone, and response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Eight Custom Transformers\u003cbr\u003e\nThe RNDI-8’s custom-wound output transformers provide isolation while adding musical harmonics and dimension to the sound. The low impedance, transformer-balanced outputs excel at driving long cable\u003cbr\u003e\nruns, and the performance is consistent regardless of the connected equipment. This is important for both\u003cbr\u003e\nlive and studio environments where the unamplified signal may travel 100ft or more before hitting an\u003cbr\u003e\namplifier.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Class-A, Discrete FET Input Amplifiers\u003cbr\u003e\nThe class-A \u0026amp; discrete FET input amplifiers in the RNDI-8 are powered by 48V phantom and create a\u003cbr\u003e\nhigh impedance input of over 2M Ohms, ensuring consistent performance with a wide variety of\u003cbr\u003e\ninstruments. The class-A design eliminates crossover distortion that can otherwise be added to the signal\u003cbr\u003e\nand introduce unwanted upper-order odd harmonics. With the RNDI-8, the harmonic content is derived\u003cbr\u003e\nfrom the octave (2nd order) and fifth above octave (3rd order) relative to the fundamental. These musically\u003cbr\u003e\nrelevant harmonics, present in subtle amounts, enhance the richness of the original signal and provide a\u003cbr\u003e\ndistinctly musical response. Furthermore, the discrete aspect of the RNDI-8’s design means there are no\u003cbr\u003e\nICs or digital components to potentially cause negative effects on the tone.\u003cbr\u003e\nGiant Headroom, Wide Bandwidth\u003cbr\u003e\nThe RNDI-8 has a uniquely wide bandwidth with a frequency response stretching from 5Hz all the way\u003cbr\u003e\npast 90kHz. However, measurements are only part of the equation: couple this extended bandwidth with\u003cbr\u003e\nthe output transformer’s harmonic enhancement and an absolutely thunderous low-end emerges, adding\u003cbr\u003e\nan unparalleled feeling of depth. All this happens without compromising any of the midrange richness or\u003cbr\u003e\ntop-end sparkle that defines your instrument.\u003cbr\u003e\nMaximum input level is a massive +21dBu, making the RNDI-8 capable of handling not only instruments\u003cbr\u003e\nbut also professional line-level sources like interfaces and drum machines. And with the addition of a -\u003cbr\u003e\n10dB pad, that number soars to +31dBu – more than enough for even the highest-output DJ mixers. This\u003cbr\u003e\nmakes the RNDI-8 incredibly versatile, enhancing the sound of nearly any connected instrument or\u003cbr\u003e\nsource.\u003cbr\u003e\nTwo Distinct Ground Lift Options\u003cbr\u003e\nMost direct interfaces include a ground lift switch at the output, and the RNDI-8 includes this standard DI\u003cbr\u003e\n‘lifting’ option via eight individual ‘Pin 1 Isolate’ switches on the rear panel. Engaging this button will\u003cbr\u003e\nusually eliminate common sources of hum in the signal path. However, the RNDI-8 also includes eight\u003cbr\u003e\nground lift buttons on the front panel which separate each channel’s circuit ground from the chassis\u003cbr\u003e\nground, providing another helpful option to detect and eliminate unwanted ground hum.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rupert Neve Designs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57959637614975,"sku":"50018","price":1699.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}]},{"product_id":"heritage-audio-dma73-47666","title":"Heritage Audio DMA73","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Heritage Audio DMA73 is a true dual ´73 style mic preamp in a 1 rack unit format.

In DI (direct box) mode the instrument \/ re-amp out on the front of the Redeye 3D works as a thru signal so you can simultaneously feed your guitar amp while supplying a signal from the rear xlr to your mic pre and DAW or tape machine. In re-amp mode the instrument \/ re-amp out on the front of the Redeye 3D signal comes from the line level output of the DAW or tape machine (converted to HI-Z guitar level signal) to feed your guitar amp. This simple way of listening thru the chain (re-amp mode) and being able to bypass the mic pre and DAW or tape machine in the chain (DI mode) makes level adjustments a snap.

The resulting RNDI delivers on that promise with a powerful and vibrant direct sound capable of reproducing the full harmonic depth of basses, guitars, acoustic instruments, and professional line level sources. With portable, powerful, larger-than-life tone for your instrument signals and amplifier signals, the RNDI is truly the first standalone DI worthy of the Rupert Neve name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Development\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter coming into existence during an experimentation with new transformer designs, the RNDI was fine-tuned over a series of listening tests against the the most popular high-end DIs available. It was in these tests where the RNDI always seemed to add another dimension to the sound and bring the instruments to life. The lows felt richer, deeper and fuller, and the highs had outstanding clarity without any added harshness. Most importantly, the design team noted: \"As musicians, the RNDI consistently stood out as the DI we wanted to play through.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Elements of Direct Tone\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe RNDI's signature sound is the product both of new custom Rupert Neve-designed transformers and class-A biased, discrete FET amplifiers. The carefully orchestrated union of these two elements is key to the RNDI’s unique response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe transformers provide superior passive isolation while adding musical harmonics and dimension to the sound. The low impedance, transformer balanced output excels at driving long cable runs, and performance is immensely consistent regardless of the connected equipment. This is very important for both live and studio environments where the unamplified signal may travel almost 100ft before hitting an amplifier. In other designs, these high capacitance lines cause major reductions in high frequencies, however the output stage of the RNDI unrivaled at handling long runs with minimal losses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe class-A and discrete FET amplifier in the RNDI is powered by industry-standard 48V phantom power on the XLR connection, and creates a very high impedance input of 2M Ohms that ensures consistent performance with a wide variety of instruments. The significance of the RNDI's class-A design is that there is no crossover distortion added to the signal, which can add upper order odd harmonics to the sound that are musically dissonant in nature. With the RNDI, the overwhelming majority of harmonic content is 2nd order (ocatve) with some 3rd order present (fifth above octave). These musically relevant harmonics - present in subtle amounts - actually add to the richness of the original signal. The discrete aspect of the RNDI design means there are no ICs or digital components that can have negative effects on the tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese efforts to harmonize the performance of the transformer and the FET amplifier have resulted in the RNDI’s extremely well balanced response. The low end tonality is thick and powerful, with frequency response several octaves below audibility. The high end is clear, present, and smooth, with a frequency response extending beyond 100kHz. The phase coherence is unrivaled at all frequencies, which keeps the sound as natural as possible - especially vital when blending the direct signal with a microphone capture of the same source. Simply put, there is no DI ever made that performs like the RNDI.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGame-Changing Headroom\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn instrument mode, the RNDI's high input headroom of +21.5dBU is capable of handling not only instruments, but professional, line level sources like interfaces, CD players and drum machines without a pad. This allows the RNDI to serve as a way to “Re-Preamp” any previously recorded track using your interface and a desired pre-amp. To do this, simply connect a channel output of the interface to the input of the RNDI and connect the RNDI’s output to the preamp and engage 48V. By \"Re-Preamping\" you can apply the tone of another preamp to the source and more accurately automate or control the drive level on the preamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn speaker mode, the RNDI can handle the screaming output of a 1000-watt power amplifier (92 Vrms or 266Vp-p) to capture the full tone of the instrument, preamplifier, EQ, inserts, and the amplifier's output stages before it hits the speakers. This technique allows the engineer to avoid any bleed in a live environment and any unwanted tone added by the speaker cabinet or microphone. When used with modern speaker emulation plug-ins, this technique allows the engineer to take advantage of the flexibility of digital modeling, and the superior non-linear response of an actual analogue amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSpeaker and Instrument Mode User Notes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a speaker feed configuration, the DI is used post-power amplifier to capture the tone of the preamp and power amp. Be sure to switch the RNDI input level to speaker and connect the amplifier and speaker BEFORE turning the amplifier on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNote: with tube power amps, THE SPEAKER MUST BE CONNECTED to the THRU connection to provide a load for the amplifier. Please read your amplifier’s manual to discern its range of acceptable loads. Solid state amps can generally be run without a speaker connected, although you should always consult your amplifier’s manual to be sure. The RNDI can handle the full amplified output of a 1000W amp, so you can confidently drive the output stages of any amp less than 1000W to get your desired tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn an instrument configuration, the DI converts the impedance of the instrument signal, balances the signal (if unbalanced), provides a buffered output stage to send to a separate mic preamp, and optionally sends the THRU connection to the amp input. To get the best performance out of your RNDI, we recommend you use the best available cables and mic preamps, and output the maximum level from your instrument. The instrument connects to the IN jack, and if you want to feed an amplifier, connect the THRU output to your amplifier’s input. The output of the RNDI in both instrument and speaker mode feeds a separate preamp for final gain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGroundbreaking Direct Tone\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen class-A, discrete amplifiers meet Rupert's custom transformers, good things happen to your tone. The RNDI is imbued with the unique components and design knowledge that makes it worthy of the Rupert Neve name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHuge Headroom\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe high input headroom of +21.5dBU is capable of handling professional, line level sources without a pad - and in speaker mode, the RNDI can handle the full output of a 1000-watt power amplifier (92 Vrms or 266Vp-p).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRugged Solid-Steel Frame\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe rugged steel chassis features an industrial-grade powder coating, and is built to withstand the severe stresses of life on the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTakes All Kinds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe RNDI has immensely consistent performance across a wide variety of sources due to its 2M Ohm discrete FET input and high headroom. You can confidently use the RNDI with basses, guitars, acoustic instruments, keyboards, and even professional line level devices. In instrument mode, you can even connect a professional line level interface output to \"Re-Preamp\" a previously recorded source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDrive Longer Lines\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe low impedance transformer coupled output - below 50 ohms - is capable of driving long lines with unrivaled high frequency performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1\/4\" THRU Output\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn instrument mode the THRU output can feed the amplifier input for reinforcement.

The discrete, class-A circuit topology is built around Mr. Rupert Neve’s custom transformers, resulting in outstanding sonic performance and supremely natural sound from 5Hz all the way out to well beyond 90kHz. Each channel can handle input levels up to +21dBu (+31dBu with the pad engaged), the low impedance transformer-coupled output drives long lines with minimal loss, and the rugged chassis’ steel construction is designed for a lifetime of stage and studio use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTransformer + Discrete FET: The Best of Both Worlds\u003cbr\u003e\nThe RNDI-8’s signature sound stems from the custom-designed transformers and class-A, discrete FET input amplifiers. The carefully designed union of these two elements is key to the RNDI-8’s unique accuracy, tone, and response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Eight Custom Transformers\u003cbr\u003e\nThe RNDI-8’s custom-wound output transformers provide isolation while adding musical harmonics and dimension to the sound. The low impedance, transformer-balanced outputs excel at driving long cable runs, and the performance is consistent regardless of the connected equipment. This is important for both live and studio environments where the unamplified signal may travel 100ft or more before hitting an amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Class-A, Discrete FET Input Amplifiers\u003cbr\u003e\nThe class-A \u0026amp; discrete FET input amplifiers in the RNDI-8 are powered by 48V phantom and create a high impedance input of over 2M Ohms, ensuring consistent performance with a wide variety of instruments. The class-A design eliminates crossover distortion that can otherwise be added to the signal and introduce unwanted upper-order odd harmonics. With the RNDI-8, the harmonic content is derived from the octave (2nd order) and fifth above octave (3rd order) relative to the fundamental. These musically relevant harmonics, present in subtle amounts, enhance the richness of the original signal and provide a distinctly musical response. Furthermore, the discrete aspect of the RNDI-8’s design means there are no ICs or digital components to potentially cause negative effects on the tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGiant Headroom, Wide Bandwidth\u003cbr\u003e\nThe RNDI-8 has a uniquely wide bandwidth with a frequency response stretching from 5Hz all the way past 90kHz. However, measurements are only part of the equation: couple this extended bandwidth with the output transformer’s harmonic enhancement and an absolutely thunderous low-end emerges, adding an unparalleled feeling of depth. All this happens without compromising any of the midrange richness or top-end sparkle that defines your instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaximum input level is a massive +21dBu, making the RNDI-8 capable of handling not only instruments but also professional line-level sources like interfaces and drum machines. And with the addition of a - 10dB pad, that number soars to +31dBu – more than enough for even the highest-output DJ mixers. This makes the RNDI-8 incredibly versatile, enhancing the sound of nearly any connected instrument or source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo Distinct Ground Lift Options\u003cbr\u003e\nMost direct interfaces include a ground lift switch at the output, and the RNDI-8 includes this standard DI ‘lifting’ option via eight individual ‘Pin 1 Isolate’ switches on the rear panel. Engaging this button will usually eliminate common sources of hum in the signal path. However, the RNDI-8 also includes eight ground lift buttons on the front panel which separate each channel’s circuit ground from the chassis ground, providing another helpful option to detect and eliminate unwanted ground hum.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rupert Neve Designs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57960036630911,"sku":"50003","price":1699.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/1216\/1407\/files\/50003-1.jpg?v=1783942050"},{"product_id":"locomotive-audio-z-car","title":"Locomotive Audio Z-Car","description":"\u003cp\u003eCapture your performance now, audition on any pedal or amp later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe all new Locomotive ZCAR is simple.
