This is the most comprehensive deep dive for music technology I’ve seen on this platform hands down. As a Mechanical Engineering student and musician, this is fascinating! Just subbed 😂
Neve is my fave preamp, but there will always be a place in my heart for Joe Meek and Ted Fletcher. Do a video on them. Ted is still around and engineering great gear!
Nice vid! The Scheps 73 made me discover and love the real hardware. They sound surprisingly close, you just lose a bit of 'openness' on the software side for lack of better word.
Great video. Have you noticed that if you turn on the equalizer, but leave everything at zero (flat), then there is a small hf roll off at about 20 kHz? I read that this is a design feature. I also have 1073 CH, and when I turn on the EQ, but set everything to zero (flat), the sound gets a little darker in the "air" region.
@@mixingmasteringonline Check out Plugin Doctor - amazing tool! With this program you can measure the frequency response of plug-ins and hardware. I found that the VEQ3 also has a 20kHz treble rolloff when the EQ is active, but set to zeros (flat). The same thing happens with the hardware 1073 Ch module. But the plug-in from Sheps, when EQ is engaged remains flat throughout the entire frequency spectrum.
God loves Mr.Neve his contribution to the world of sound is incredible!!

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! 🙏

the neve has that bite in the mid to high end 🔥
Thanks for this detailed history of this legendary piece of gear
Thank you for your kind comment! 😃
Beautifully detailed. Thank you.
Thank you Ryan!

Thank you! I think you’re right, pretty sums up the difference.
thank you, good lesson
Thank you Robert!
i just got some neve 1058s for guitars and damn they are nice, gotta say they blow away my 1073s and 1064s
Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to try them out.

Thank you! Yeah, definitely a few things going on when the EQ is engaged. I should have a look on the scope and measure it.

@@phillipphillip367 I haven't used Plugin Doctor yet, it looks like a great tool, thanks for the tip!
Really great!
Thank you John!
The plug ins don’t even compare.
That VEQ3 sounds the closest to me
Is the picture on [timestamp 4min41] from an actual 1073 CH? I was under the impression that the CH units were completely hand wired.
You’re right, I don’t think this is a CH version. It’s a stock photo not the one I have in the studio.
Nice!!!
Thanks!
Wow the plugins sound flat and brittle. Have you tried the lindell 80 chan?
I haven’t tried that one, better than the rest?
@@mixingmasteringonline yes, in my opinion. It's pretty good 👍
but wich one is better? the scheps, or the VEQ3?
They're both useful, I tend to use the VEQ more often but I'd use both.
There is another better 1073 plugins than these Waves, like Mellowmuse Eq2v
hmm that VEQ3 didn't sound too bad actually.
@@user-gt4hv4fi1z'' acustica nebula'' make amazing 1073 emulation
i was surprised by the veq its so old, i wouldnt think it would be so close@@user-gt4hv4fi1z
I thought it was gonna be loathe's song for a second
