Rupert Neve 5060 CENTERPIECE Desktop Mixer

With custom transformers, a class-A mix buss and variable Silk Red & Blue, the 5060 can provide a wide range of tonal flavors. Drive the mix buss hard and crank the Texture knob for a rich, saturated, vintage vibe – or disengage Silk entirely for clear, wide-open sonic beauty.

The Silk circuit reduces the negative feedback on the output transformer, adding harmonic content as the Texture is increased. Silk Red mode adds a sparkle & sheen to your mixes by accentuating the saturation in the high mids and highs, while Silk Blue amplifies saturation in the lows and low mids to add unparalelled weight & punch.

With Silk engaged, the 5060’s distortion characteristics and harmonic content are very reminiscent of many of Rupert’s class-A vintage designs – but here, these characteristics are fully variable. These controls add an unparalleled range of tonal options to the 5060, and open up a whole new world of sonic exploration.

Define Your Workflow.
With a modular, hybrid analog/digital mix system built around the Rupert Neve 5060, you can outfit your studio with exactly what you need – and nothing that you don’t.

Utilizing modern DAW control technologies, the Rupert Neve 5060 seamlessly integrates stem outputs from the DAW with the rest of your control room, sums the final mix, and provides 2-track outputs, source selection, and up to three speaker feed outputs from the monitor section.

Used in conjunction with Rupert Neve Designs’ other summing products and outboard equipment, the Rupert Neve 5060 Centerpiece forms the core of a scalable analog system. In this arrangement, additional summing mixers provide expandable channel counts and aux routing capabilities, Shelford modules provide preamplification, EQ, and dynamics, and the Centerpiece unites it all.

The Rupert Neve 5060 brings your dreams of a seamless hybrid workflow to reality.

The New Analog Standard.
While digital technologies come and go, the modular, class-A analog designs Rupert created decades ago have been proven to stand the test of time. Instead of merely cloning these “classics”, Rupert’s team of engineers have crafted new designs – built on the same key principles – that take sonic performance, flexibility, and ergonomics to new heights.

These designs embody the high voltage, class-A, discrete and transformer-coupled architectures found in the 5088 console, which represent a culmination of Rupert’s vast analog circuitry knowledge.

With the Rupert Neve 5060 Centerpiece, the primary aim is to deliver the extraordinary quality of the 5088 in a compact, modular framework.

With exceptional fidelity, an abundance of interconnectivity and the tonal versatility of Silk, the 5060 is the ideal core of the sound-conscious modern studio.
