 Portico 5033
Portico 5033 is a processor that emulates a 5-band analog EQ developed by Rupert Neve
Designs (RND). 5033EQ features a unique tone control response. It inherited the history of
the “1073,” which was praised as one of the greatest devices developed by Mr. Rupert Neve.
Yamaha’s VCM technology has modeled the EQ to the last detail, including the input/output
transformer that was designed by Rupert Neve himself. As a result, this processor model
produces musically high-quality sound even when bypassed. Its response features unique
effects. For example, if the Lo setting is cut, the low range becomes tight, and if the Hi setting
is raised, the desired range will be boosted without hurting your ears.
1 ALL BYPASS button
Switches EQ bypass on or off. Even when EQ bypass is on, the signal will pass through
the input/output transformer and amp circuits.
2 TRIM knob
Adjusts the input gain of the processor.
3 LF/LMF/MF/HMF/HF Frequency knobs
Adjust the frequency for each band.
4 LF/LMF/MF/HMF/HF Gain knobs
Adjust the amount of boost or cut for each band.
5 LMF/MF/HMF Q knobs
Adjust the Q (steepness) of each band. The higher the Q value, the narrower the range
in which you can control the gain for the band.
6 LMF/MF/HMF IN button
Turn LMF/MF/HMF EQ on or off respectively.
