The Neve 5045 Primary Source Enhancer is a two‑channel processor for live sound that increases clarity and gain before feedback on open microphones. Rather than gating, it intelligently attenuates ambient pickup and stage bleed when the performer isn’t speaking, preserving the natural timbre and dynamics of the source. Simple, musical controls allow rapid setup: set the threshold to determine when enhancement engages, then choose the reduction depth to taste. The 5045’s fast, transparent action helps FOH and monitor engineers achieve cleaner mixes with fewer EQ compromises, especially in reflective rooms or loud stages. Built on Neve’s renowned analogue circuitry, it integrates easily into existing signal chains and delivers stable, consistent performance across speech and vocals alike. From corporate events and worship to broadcast and touring stages, the 5045 provides confident level before feedback and intelligibility without sounding processed. Ideal wherever open mics demand maximum control and a polished, articulate result.
