Rupert Neve Designs
Rupert Neve Designs stands as a monument to the art of sound. Founded by the late Rupert Neve — widely regarded as the father of modern analog recording — the company carries his lifelong mission forward: to deliver audio gear that enhances not just the technical fidelity of sound, but its soul. Every product that bears the Rupert Neve name embodies decades of engineering mastery, a deep respect for musicality, and an uncompromising dedication to quality. This is not just audio gear — it’s a philosophy made tangible in transformers, circuits, and tone.
At the heart of Rupert Neve Designs is a belief in the power of analog. In a world dominated by digital tools, Rupert Neve Designs proves again and again that the warmth, depth, and harmonic richness of well-designed analog hardware is irreplaceable. Whether you’re tracking vocals through the Shelford Channel, adding subtle width with the 5059 Satellite Summing Mixer, or dialing in punch and presence with the Master Buss Processor, you’re not just using a tool — you’re sculpting sound with intention and feeling.
Built by hand in Wimberley, Texas, Rupert Neve Designs continues to push the boundaries of modern analog equipment. Their gear is trusted by top-tier studios, Grammy-winning engineers, and forward-thinking producers across every genre — from classical to hip-hop, from film scoring to cutting-edge electronic. It’s the choice of professionals who need gear that performs flawlessly, session after session, without ever losing its character or nuance.
The company’s flagship offerings — like the Shelford Series, the RNDI direct box, and the Portico II range — are built with custom transformers, discrete Class-A circuitry, and the same sonic DNA that powered countless iconic recordings. Whether in a world-class mixing suite or a bedroom studio, Rupert Neve Designs brings the unmistakable Neve sound within reach.
But more than just sonics, it’s about inspiration. Rupert Neve understood that gear should get out of the way and let creativity flow. Every knob, switch, and signal path is engineered to serve the artist. That’s why Rupert Neve Designs continues to be found in the studios where music history is made — not just for how it sounds, but for how it feels.
