The Neve 88RS Channel Strip is derived from Neve's renowned 88 Series, a large-format analog console introduced in 2001 that combined the best elements of previous Neve designs. This console has been a staple in prestigious studios and scoring stages worldwide, including Ocean Way, Abbey Road, AIR, and Skywalker Sound, recognized for its exceptional sound quality and reliability. The 88RS Channel Strip captures the essence of this flagship console, bringing its celebrated EQ and dynamics processing to modern music production environments.

This channel strip features 12 dB per octave high and low cut filters along with a four-band EQ that includes fully parametric middle bands and flexible high and low bands offering both fixed-Q and shelving options. The dynamics section combines limiting, compression, gating, and expansion with adjustable attack and release times, variable ratio control, and sidechain capabilities. Users can rearrange the signal chain to place the EQ before the dynamics or engage frequency-dependent compression for tasks such as de-essing, providing powerful control over tone and dynamics.

Exclusively licensed and modeled by industry leaders, the Neve 88RS Channel Strip delivers classic analog warmth and precision tailored for contemporary production and mixing workflows. Its combination of vintage heritage and current technology makes it a valuable tool for engineers seeking to enhance their sound with trusted Neve character. Whether shaping tonal balance or controlling dynamics, this channel strip offers a sophisticated and intuitive solution for professional audio work.
