Over the past decade, the world's leading audio engineers have chosen Rupert Neve Designs as one of the only analog rigs that can accompany their tours. With mastering-quality 24-bit 192kHz converters and full Dante protocol integration, the RMP-D8 finally offers the live world what studios have always coveted: Rupert Neve Designs sound.
The heart of the RMP-D8 lies in the modular mic preamp boards adding Mr Rupert Neve's custom transformer design. Unlike other Dante integrated mic preamp models that rely primarily on a single IC for gain and tone, each channel of the RMP-D8 is equipped with a Class A mic preamp, powering a custom, standards-compliant transformer. high levels of Rupert Neve Designs standalone preamps.
The RMP-D8's audio signal will work with any Dante device in environments ranging from concert halls, clubs to studios. Overall, the RMP-D8 brings the classic sound of Rupert Neve Designs to a connected world with the Dante protocol.
