Neve Electronics (/ˈniːv/ NEEV) was a manufacturer of music recording and broadcast mixing consoles and hardware.
That year Neve Electronics built one of the first transistor-based mixing consoles for Philips Records Studios in London.
The company moved to a purpose-built factory in Melbourn, near Cambridge where in 1968 they designed the 2254 compressor limiter for ABC Weekend TV in the UK.
During the seventies Neve Electronics produced a whole series of mixing consoles for both broadcast and recording studios.
Before the introduction of Necam, all fader mixing had to be done as live, a considerably skilled and stressful task for any dubbing mixer.
This was partly due to their ambitious investment into research and development of projects such as the DSP console and the Necam system.
[3] Another product that was included in the company's research and development programme was a digitally controlled routing system; very few of these were sold.
The factor contributing to the larger than life sound is greatly attributed to the design of the transformer which seems to add subharmonics to the signal.
[8] The Equalizer section of the 1073 is regarded as very "musical" and practical and has become the favorite choice of many engineers for recording and mixing.
