Presenting the 511 Mic Preamp with Silk: Elevate your sound with Rupert Neve`s 500 Series creation. The 511 combines potent preamp power from the 517, versatile filtering like the 5012, and transformative silk circuitry inspired by the flagship Portico II Channel. Experience classic warmth and value in this innovative design.

Rupert Neve`s Expertise for the 500 Series
Designed with Rupert Neve`s insight, our 500-Series Modules replicate Portico Series quality within space and voltage constraints. Crafted through extensive experimentation with transformers and circuits, these modules offer near-indistinguishable performance, perfect for top-tier studios.

Advanced Input Handling
Accommodating Mic or Line inputs, the 511`s 10K Ω non-reactive input resistance handles powerful signals without needing a pad. Its TLA non-reactive design prevents microphone overload. With 66dB primary gain control in 6dB steps and +/- 6dB fine adjustment, achieving desired levels is effortless. +48V phantom power suits condenser mics and powered DIs, while the optimized HPF curbs rumble and proximity effects.

Revolutionary Texture Control
Unveil the Red Silk / Texture control, a hallmark of the 511`s innovation. Building on Portico`s "Silk" mode, Texture shapes harmonic content, providing versatile tonal options. By reducing negative feedback and adjusting frequency response, Texture emulates Neve`s vintage designs. Push its limits for tenfold THD increase at max setting.

Harmonically Rich, Uncompromised Integrity
Harness harmonics without compromising source material integrity. Our controls enhance character without "incinerating" or "destroying" sound, offering confident customization.

Exceptional Performance: Quiet and Pure
Designed for minimal noise and distortion, the 511 boasts Class A operation and refined signal paths. Explore Rupert Neve`s Design Notes for details.

The Power of Transformers
Transformers enable distinctive sound. They reject interference, making them ideal for modules. Rupert Neve Designs delivers console-quality without bulk or expense.

Seamless Integration
Our modules harmonize seamlessly in console setups, thanks to careful interface, grounding, and impedance attention. Transformers ensure independent, reliable signal processing.
