AMS Neve 8051



The AMS NEVE 8051 Analogue 5.1 Compressor. A powerful and responsive tool for surround mixing.

The AMS NEVE 8051 is an analogue compressor with six transformer balanced audio paths complemented by two side chains and a key input. Flexible side chain routing, trimming and filtering, make this a powerful and responsive tool for surround mixing. The Neve 8051 uses the same feedback topology as the 33609 compressor, the style of compression that has created the famous Neve Sound. Each channel can be controlled from either Side Chain A or Side Chain B. The six signal paths can be split between the two side chains in any format required, for example with L, C, R, LS, RS on Side chain A and LFE on Side chain B, with L, C, R on Side chain A and LS, RS on Side chain B, as a pair of separate stereo compressors, etc.
