AMS Neve

AMS Neve is a British company specializing in the design and manufacture of professional audio mixing consoles, signal processing equipment, and related audio technology. The company is renowned for its high-quality analog circuitry and the distinctive sonic character of its consoles, which have been used in countless recording studios and broadcast facilities worldwide.

The history of AMS Neve can be traced back to two separate companies: Advanced Music Systems (AMS), founded in 1976, which pioneered digital audio editing and effects processing, and Rupert Neve, Incorporated, founded by Rupert Neve, a highly respected designer of analog mixing consoles and audio equipment.

AMS acquired Rupert Neve's company in 1985, leading to the formation of AMS Neve. The combined company integrated the strengths of both organizations, retaining the expertise in analog console design from Rupert Neve's legacy while incorporating AMS's advanced digital technology.

AMS Neve continues to manufacture classic console designs such as the 88RS and VR series, as well as modern digital audio workstations (DAWs) and outboard equipment. Their products are highly sought after by audio professionals for their pristine sound quality, reliability, and contribution to the creation of many iconic recordings. The company is considered a leader in the professional audio industry, continually innovating and shaping the landscape of music production and audio engineering.
