Tape Op Reviews the 5057 Orbit

Introducing StudioScents® by Rupert Neve Designs
AES Los Angeles: Remembering Rupert Neve
The audio community lost a giant of the industry with the recent passing of Rupert Neve. For the March meeting, AES-LA and Rupert Neve Designs will be reflecting on Mr. Neve’s long history and storied career.
Quick Start: Using the RMP-D8 with Interfaces from Avid, Universal Audio, and Burl
The RMP-D8 Dante™-connected mic preamp and converter brings legendary Rupert Neve Designs microphone preamplification to your Dante network through 24-bit/192kHz conversion. If you’re adding it to an existing Dante network, setup is about as simple as connecting a single cable and finding the device on the network – but what if you haven’t made the switch to Dante, and your system is based around an Avid® MTRX or HD I/O, a Burl® Mothership, or a Universal Audio® Apollo?
