Neve 31102 and 31102SE Controls

Input Gain

The Input Gain control sets the level at the input of the plug-
in, and doubles as a plug-in bypass control. The range is
from –20 dB to +10 dB, and off.

When the Input Gain knob “snaps” to the off position,
plug-in processing is disabled and UAD DSP usage is re-
duced.

Note:

(UAD-2 only) UAD-2 DSP usage is reduced only when DSP LoadLock

(

page 74

) is disabled. If DSP LoadLock is enabled (the default setting), setting

Input Gain to off will not reduce DSP usage.

Tip:

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.

High Shelf

The high shelf delivers smooth high frequency shelving
equalization, controlled by dual-concentric knobs. The in-
ner knob controls the band gain, and the outer ring selects
the frequency or band disable.

High Shelving Gain

The gain for the high band is selected with the inner knob of
the dual-concentric control. Rotate the control clockwise to add the famous
high-end Neve sheen, or counter-clockwise to reduce the treble response.

The available range is approximately ±15 dB. The gain value is zero when
the knob position indicator is pointing straight down.

High Shelving Frequency

The high shelving frequency is specified with the outer ring of the dual-con-
centric knob. The ring knob pointer can be dragged with the mouse, or click
the shelving symbol above the knob to cycle through the available frequen-
cies (shift+click to step back one frequency).

The available high shelving frequencies are 16 kHz, 12 kHz, 10 kHz, and
off. When off is specified, the high shelf band is disabled. UAD DSP usage is
not reduced when the band is off.
