réactions à la news Le préampli et égaliseur Neve 1084 en version logicielle UAD

Non, Alex : ce n'est partie preamp qui est la même , mais la partie fader

No, the 1084 and the 1073 are very similar in design, and the preamp is essentially the same as that in the 1073 (and Neve Preamp/1290), but re-voiced to match a particular unit's total gain, clip points, transformer response, system filtering, and other details that make one unit different from another.

In the case of the 1084, it is a similar enough circuit design overall that it could be largely repurposed from the 1073 and re-voiced to fit the 1084 golden unit.

2. They are "the same" in this area as well. The one area identical between our 1073 and 1084 plugin is the fader itself; we used that same physical fader, so it has the same "fit" (taper, accounted for impedance).

Almost every UAD plugin design that is made to replicate a hardware unit is based on and functions as the underlying schematic at the fundamental level, but is then fit to take on the specific characteristics of one "golden" unit (golden just means it is the reference unit that we fit to with all its specific parts tolerances). We usually target among as many units as we can get our hands on, and pick one among them that best represents the circuit when studying the unit to unit variation. Some designs (Trident comes to mind) have a lot of unit to unit variation. Others like Neve, have less on average. So for example, we could refit to a different 1073 module than the one we did and get variation in total gain, clip points, transformer response, system filtering, EQ filtering and other details and get a difference like you might get between modules in an 80 Series console. In the case of the 1084, it is a similar enough circuit design overall that it could be largely repurposed from the 1073 and re-voiced to fit the 1084 golden unit.

De leur propre aveux, la modélisation de la partie préamp est absolument la même que celle du 1073. Ils ont juste changé les valeurs pour correspondre à l'exemplaire test, et ajouté les options d'EQ en plus

puisque tu donnes le lien de ce chat avec Shanks; alors j'imagine que tu as lu ça :
