Primo 500 Series Compressor

Here's your unbelievably musical compressor, courtesy of Rupert Neve Designs! When you have the 543 in your 500 Series rack, you'll instantly be impressed. After all, this mono compressor has a strong lineage. Not only does it come from the brain of Rupert Neve, but it's also derived from the extremely popular Portico 5043. Now, you can get that unobtrusive, musical-sounding dynamic control into your favorite portable 500 Series format. The 543 sports individually controllable threshold, attack, release, makeup gain, ratio, sidechain highpass filter, Feed-Forward/Feed-Back selection, and Peak/RMS detection modes. When you have the compressor inactive, you can actually use the 543 as a transformer-coupled line amplifier for great results. And when stereo needs come about, just link two 543 units for unbelievable sound. With proven sound, thanks to its big brother in the Portico format, the 543 will be a sound addition to your 500 Series rack.

Rupert Neve Designs 543 Features at a Glance:
  • 500 Series format mono VCA compressor
  • Derived from the same design as the Portico 5043
  • Individually controllable threshold, attack, release, makeup gain, ratio, sidechain highpass filter, Feed-Forward/Feed-Back selection, and Peak/RMS detection modes

Put a world-class compressor into your 500 Series rack with the Rupert Neve Designs 543!

Our Customers Say...

I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!
