Rupert Neve Designs 542 500 Series Tape Emulator
500 Series Process with "True Tape" Silk/Texture Circuitry
As a 500 Series follow-up to the Portico 5042, the 542 delivers the same thick, musical simulation of tape while drastically enhancing creative control via a number of new features. In addition to the the true tape circuitry - great for bringing out 3rd-order harmonics - the 542 incorporates a soft-clip circuit that tames the harshest sources and enhances 2nd-order harmonics, a variable and versatile Silk/Texture circuit for three transformer tones in one, and a wet/dry control to blend in the perfect amount of saturation.
