Desert Island Audio™

 
 

We came come across a bunch of original Neve 1272 modules and decided to do our usual over-engineered racking job on them.  These modules are completely original with the exception of recapping. 


Each module features a Mic input, DI input, stepped gain pot and a VU meter.  The lighted switches control phantom power, a 20db pad, and  phase invert.  There is an outboard linear power supply which can be factory set to 110 or 220 volts.


Sound-wise, you won’t be disappointed.  Specs on the right were measured on our test bench using one of the 6 modules.


Cosmetically, the racks are new, but the modules and knobs are from the 1970’s, so they have unique scratches and faded paint.


UPDATE: SOLD OUT
