The Rupert Neve Designs 5059 Satellite is a 16x2+2 summing mixer that combines the legendary sound of Rupert Neve’s classic designs with modern flexibility. Built around the same custom transformers and class-A topologies that made the 5088 mixer famous, the 5059 is designed to elevate your studio’s sonic capabilities, delivering outstanding clarity, warmth, and control in a compact 2U, rack-mountable chassis.

Signature Sound Quality:
The 5059’s custom transformers and meticulously refined +/- 24V class-A topologies work together to deliver the signature sound that Rupert Neve is known for—characterized by remarkable purity, warmth, and a larger-than-life sonic presence. This fine-tuned analog circuitry completely eliminates crossover distortion, ensuring that your mixes maintain their integrity and depth.

Versatile Mixing Capabilities:
The 5059 features 16 channels, each equipped with level, pan, inserts, stereo-2 sends, and master texture controls, offering seamless integration with outboard gear and enabling precise control over two separate stem mixes. The dual stereo outputs can be used for analog stem mixing or for creating auxiliary sends when paired with another 5059, making it an ideal centerpiece for any modular analog mixing system.

Enhanced Creative Control:
The 5059’s continuously variable Texture controls with Silk Red and Silk Blue modes allow engineers to sculpt the harmonic content of each stereo send. Silk Red enhances high and high-mid frequencies, adding sparkle, while Silk Blue accentuates low and low-mid frequencies, enriching the sound with thickness and density. These controls enable a wide range of sonic textures, from pristine clarity to rich, vintage-inspired saturation.

Flexible Integration and Expansion:
In addition to providing 16 pannable inputs and individual channel inserts for outboard processing, the 5059 can be expanded by linking multiple units, allowing for even greater routing flexibility. The always-on insert sends enable simultaneous recording of both individual tracks and a stacked mix, streamlining your workflow.

Analog Excellence for Modern Studios:
Whether you’re crafting analog stem mixes, integrating high-end outboard gear, or adding rich analog warmth to digital recordings, the Rupert Neve Designs 5059 Satellite is a powerful tool that brings classic analog sound into the modern studio environment. Its combination of class-A circuitry, custom transformers, and versatile connectivity makes it an essential piece of gear for engineers and producers seeking the best in analog summing and mixing.
