The Class-A Analog Heart Of Your 21st-Century Studio.
Sized for your desktop, the 5060 puts the tonality and center section features of Rupert's flagship 5088 console at your fingertips, cementing outboard together with serious custom transformers, flexible monitoring, DAW transport controls, and the raw power of a Rupert Neve-designed 24+2 mix-buss.
Define Your Tone
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 unparalleled 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 5060, you can outfit your studio with exactly what you need - and nothing that you don't.
Utilizing modern DAW control technologies, the 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 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 5060 brings your dreams of a seamless hybrid workflow to reality.
