Neve 1081 and 1081SE Controls
Overview
The Neve 1081 channel module is a four-band EQ with high and low cut filters.
The 1081 features two parametric midrange bands, with “Hi-Q” selections
for tighter boosts or cuts. Both the high and low shelf filters have selectable
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 Figure 78 below. The bands 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 independent
filters.

Each feature of the UAD Neve 1081 and 1081SE interfaces are detailed below.
Input Gain
The Input Gain control sets the level at the input of the
plug-in. The range is from –20dB to +10dB.
When the Input Gain knob “snaps” to the OFF position,
plug-in processing is disabled and UAD DSP usage is reduced.
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.
