Studio-Quality Home Recording | Neve 88M, 1073SPX-D & 88C | Pro Engineer Tony Draper

Описание: In this video, professional recording and mixing engineer Tony Draper (Ibibio Sound Machine, Peter Perrett, Emilíana Torrini) welcomes Neve into his home studio to demonstrate his workflow using Neve's 88M interface, 1073SPX-D preamp, and 88C compressor.

Tony reveals how these compact Neve units deliver console-quality sound for home recording, sharing practical insights on tracking piano, the critical importance of quality preamps and converters, and mixing techniques that showcase the signature Neve Sound.

From his initial experience with the Neve VR to mastering the flagship 88R console, Tony explains how the 88M brings those same world-class preamps into an affordable, portable format, while the 1073SPX-D serves as both his primary conversion hub and go-to processor for adding "transformer goodness" to tracks, with the 88C providing subtle compression that adds density without sacrificing clarity.
