Overview
The Neve 1081 channel module is a four-band EQ with high and low cut fil-
ters. The 1081 features two parametric midrange bands, with “Hi-Q” selec-
tions for tighter boosts or cuts. Both the high and low shelf filters have select-
able frequencies and may be switched to bell filters. Other features include a
–20 to +10 dB input gain control, phase reverse, and EQ bypass.
The bands are arranged and grouped as in
feature dual-concentric controls. For each of the main bands, the inner knob
controls the gain while the outer ring controls the frequency. The low and high
cut filters are grouped as one knob/ring set, but they are actually two inde-
pendent filters.

Input Gain
The Input Gain control sets the level at the input of the
plug-in. The range is from –20 dB to +10 dB.
When the Input Gain knob “snaps” to the OFF position,
plug-in processing is disabled and UAD DSP usage is re-
duced (unless
“UAD-2 DSP LoadLock” on page 74
is en-
abled).
Note:
Clicking the OFF screen label toggles between OFF and the previously
set Input Gain value. You can also click the Neve logo to toggle between OFF
and the previous state.
