<span style="font-size: 16px;"><i>The R6 500 Series Rack delivers peace of mind for engineers who demand a higher degree of confidence in their 500 series racks</i></span><br/><br/>
The Rupert Neve R6 is a 6-slot rack for 500 format modules with ample power and versatile connection possibilities. The R6 delivers mare than enough current to power even the most greedy modules. To identify and monitor problematic modules, the R6 is equipped with an LED meter displaying the amount of power being consumed. The internal power adapter is double shielded in order to prevent magnetic distortions in the modules.<br/><br/>
The R6 offers 8 channels with symmetrical I/O options including DB-25, XLR and jack. These features are especially useful when the user transports the unit to another location and is not sure what kind of cable selection will be available or if the connection needs to be converted (e.g. with the THRU function of the channels 7-8).<br/><br/>
The R6 was designed in such a way as to allow high quality 500 modules to be installed without any problems. In order to guarantee that modules that vary from the standard dimension also find a place in this rack, adjustable screw holes are equipped to simplify their installation. The link- function of the 500 series can be activated by the use of the Link-Jumper in channels 1-2, 3-4 or 5-6. The housing is constructed from solid steel and features rubber feat so that the rack can be placed horizontally as well as vertically. All of the sockets and components are of the highest quality, in order to allow the R6 to operate for years and years to come.<br/><br/>

<h2>Rupert Neve R6 features In-Depth:</h2>
<h3>Power You Can Trust</h3>
Power-wise, the R6 has more than 150% the required current for a 6-space chassis to prevent the power rails from failing under a higher-than-expected load. To help monitor and troubleshoot problematic modules, the R6 is equipped with LED current metering to show how much power is being used. The internal power supply itself has been carefully designed and double-shielded to avoid significant magnetic induction in any of the channel positions. With such attention to providing and monitoring power, the R6 helps your modules realize their fullest potential.
<br/><br/>
<h3>Connect Like Never Before</h3>
With a plethora of connections available, the R6 backpanel is practically a patchbay on its own. The R6 features 8 channels of balanced I/O options including DB-25, XLR and TRS that may be used interchangeably. This versatility is especially handy when you are taking the R6 with you to another environment where you are unsure of the cables available, or if you need to convert DB-25, XLR or TRS connections to another format using the THRU functionality on channels 7-8.
<br/><br/>
<h3>Solid Steel Construction</h3>
The chassis is comprised of solid steel with bumpers to support the unit in both horizontal and vertical configurations, and features a collapsable handle for portability. All connectors and fittings are of the highest quality to ensure that the R6 will hold up to many years of use.
<br/><br/>
<h3>A New Level of Confidence in the 500 Series</h3>
Because the R6 is built to 500 series specifications, it will work flawlessly with any properly-designed 500 series module you wish to include in it. To help accommodate modules that are slightly out of spec, the R6 has variable-position screw holes to help make the installation process as smooth as possible. The 500 series link function can be enabled in pairs on the R6 using the link jumpers on Channels 1-2, 3-4, or 5-6. Matching blank panels are also available to cover any empty slots.

<h3>About Rupert Neve Designs</h3>
In 2005, the company acquired new premises in Wimberley, Texas to handle the increasing demand for products embodying the principles of very high musical quality that has become synonymous with Rupert Neve’s name over the years. Rupert Neve Designs announced the Portico Series in 2005 to much acclaim. The Portico Series modules are high quality analog building blocks for the front and back ends of digital systems (hence the name “Portico” as in entryway). In the years since release, the Portico Series has already garnered many important industry awards including five TEC awards, multiple PAR Excellence Awards, Mix Certified Hit Awards, and a MIPA award among others.

The original color scheme featured grey powder coating with a black and red inlay design available in both horizontal and vertical configurations. The first eight units were the 5012 Dual Pre, The 5042 True Tape FX, The 5032 Mic Pre EQ, The 5043 Dual Mono / Stereo Compressor, 5033 Five Band EQ, 5016 Mic Pre/DI (discontinued), 5014 Stereo Field Editor, and 5015 Mic Pre Compressor. <br/><br/>
In 2009, the 5088 High Voltage and Discrete Mix System were released as the ultimate word in mix bus sound quality. The modular mix system is configurable to the user’s needs, and utilizes the various Portico Series modules for mic preamps and signal processing. The 90-Volt rails of the 5088 provide more than 10dB more dynamic range than any other Rupert Neve designed console, and the custom transformers on every input and output provide complete galvanic isolation. With the release of the 5088 Portico Series modules also received an update with the same style of light blue powder coating with anodized aluminum knobs.<br/><br/>
