For sale is my Rupert Neve Designs 5059 Satellite 16 x 2+2 Analog Summing Mixer, in mint condition. This is a fantastic-sounding piece of professional analog gear that delivers the depth, width, punch, and musical character Rupert Neve Designs is known for.

The unit sounds amazing and is in exceptionally clean cosmetic condition, with no rack rash and no noticeable cosmetic wear. I’m including high-resolution photos so you can see the outstanding condition of the unit for yourself.

The 5059 brings the classic Rupert Neve Designs analog console sound into a compact 2U rackmount format, making it an excellent centerpiece for a hybrid mixing setup. Its Class-A circuitry, custom transformers, and variable Silk/Texture circuitry offer everything from pristine, open summing to rich, harmonically enhanced analog tone.

Reason for Selling

This is a reluctant sale due entirely to a change in my studio workflow. I primarily work in film post-production, and my transition to an Atmos-based configuration required me to reconfigure my setup. Unfortunately, the 5059 no longer fits into my current workflow.

A great opportunity to own a beautifully maintained Rupert Neve Designs summing mixer in outstanding condition.
