In the periodic table, element 78 is platinum, and Element 78 is also the name of the new series of digitally controlled analog processors from Summit Audio. First in the series is MPE-200, a stereo (or dual-mono) microphone preamp with four-band parametric equalizer. MPE differs completely from other new pre/equalizer combinations in two important ways: One, Mr. Rupert Neve designed the Class A, discrete-transistor analog microphone preamp; coupling sections; output driver stages; and English-made transformers, and specified the frequencies and performance of the equalizer section. Two, the entire unit is digitally controlled, using an intuitive and simple interface designed by Summit engineers. Digital control allows all front panel settings to be stored internally in any of the 25 memories, or externally through a MIDI SysEx librarian. Digital control also means that there will never be any scratchy pots or switches to replace, and all settings can be exported by way of the rear panel MIDI ports to less-expensive slave preamp/equalizer units, such as the upcoming MPE-200S.
