AMS NEVE RMX16 500 Series £1,194

Following the well-received UAD plug-in emulation, the AMS Neve RMX16 is now available as a 500 Series hardware unit. Launched in 1982, Advanced Music Systems’ RMX16 was the first ever microprocessor controlled digital reverberation unit. Back in the days when the singles charts were dominated by synth-pop bands such as Depeche Mode, OMD and Soft Cell, the RMX16 was a revelation for studios without the space to accommodate an EMT plate, let alone a real acoustic echo chamber; even studios with chambers and plates embraced the unit’s effects and flexibility.

RE-VERB

This new reverb module features the nine standard programs offered by the original units, along with the nine after-market programs once available only via a separate remote control. All of these basic settings can be modified in various ways and stored as user presets, with a maximum of 100 presets available
