Neve Modules 3115, 33115 & 33114

Can anyone her tell me the differences detween Neve 3115, 33115 & 33114 modules? Are the differences purely cosmetic or are their actual differences in components. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The 3115 is older that the 33115 in the lite gray I believe they are the same otherwise the difference between the 33114 and 33115 is the 33114 has a selectable top shelf 10k 12k and 15 or 16 if I remember correctly where the 33115 is not I think its 10k Wil

Thanks, that helps a bunch. Theres not much technical information about these on the web.

Hi!

31115 HF is set at 10k, and has less frequency options in the mid-range. Not older, same time, just a cheaper option than 31114, which has 5 frequencies in the HF(If I remember correctly.). 3114 is a darker blue-grey, colour on the knobs(well funky!), and with, I believe, different input transformers. Sound only slightly different to me! I used to work on a board with a mixture of the above. bigger difference is whether amps are discrete or not in my book.


Blah!

actually what I meant was that the 3114 and 3115 came before the 33114 and 33115 the 3114 and 3115 are royal navy gray like the 1073 and the 33114 and 33115 are the lighter gray like the 33102 Wil

See my post on the Black Market thread.

Much peace,

Didn't the 33115/3115 also have only a HP filter? They are out of the broadcast boards, hence the slimmer profile. Internally, they are much akin to a 1081, but with three bands and different frequencies, BA440 outputs (class AB, discrete). Yeah, I'd be leery if they had BA640s (IC replacement). I've troubleshot them using the 1081 docs.

Anybody here heard the one about the reason for the faders being upside down on the broadcast boards was so that when the BBC engineers would get too drunk and pass out slumping onto the desk, they'd bring the levels down rather than blowing up the transmitter?
