A massive mixing console created by a British born audio engineer Rupert Neve, called the Neve 80-20, became a recording studio staple. It was hailed by many as the most superior console of its kind in manipulating and combining instrumental and vocal signals.

Neve has died of pneumonia and heart failure at a hospice near his home in San Marcos, Texas.
Rupert Neve was 94.
