[. . . ] Portico modules may be stacked horizontally on a desk top or vertically in a rack without heat problems. The anti-slip feet may be removed while used in a rack, but should be retained for desktop use. Porticos should not be stacked immediately above or adjacent to other equipment that gets hot. Also bear in mind that other equipment may radiate strong hum fields which could spoil the performance of your Portico module. [. . . ] Any good quality connecting cord may be substituted. Several sizes of power units available for use when feeding two, eight or more PorticoTM 5042 modules together, depending upon the configuration that has been ordered. There are no special requirements for these PorticoTM low voltage power units other than that they must be of good quality, reliable and able to supply enough current for the number of PorticoTM modules in use. The power unit(s) supplied with your PorticoTM meets these requirements.

PRIMARY FEATURES
The PorticoTM 5042 consists of two identical Line Driving amplifiers having transformer balanced inputs and outputs. The sonic quality of these amplifiers is such that, by providing galvanic isolation, simple single-sided circuit topology, and freedom from grounding problems they are capable of enhancing the sonic quality of many signal sources, especially those of digital origin. The sonic "Signature" is one of extreme purity and the image is consistent with that of Rupert Neve's original designs of 35 40 years ago. More detailed discussion on the sonic image and the way in which an analog designer's approach can sweeten and "warm" some of the cold, storage and editing processes, may be found on rupertneve. com. Control Functions TRIM control provides +/ 12dB adjustment of gain to compensate for incoming signal levels prior to feeding the TAPE circuit ENGAGE TAPE push button inserts the "Tape" circuit when pressed (illuminated). The Meter push button switch selects the meter to read INPUT LEVEL or TAPE SATURATION LEVEL INPUT LEVEL reads the balanced signal level at the input of the PorticoTM 5042. TAPE LEVEL reads the signal level being sent to the simulated Tape Head. (Equivalent to Record Level in a real Tape Recorder) LINE UP The incoming signal level should be set by adjustment of the "TRIM" control so that this first LED starts to light (0 dB). When the Meter Selector is set to TAPE LEVEL there is no meter reading unless ENGAGE TAPE push button is pressed, . 7. 5 IPS 15 IPS Push button selects the emphasis/de-emphasis, Record/Replay Tape characteristic. SATURATION Controls the signal level being sent to the magnetic Tape Head. At the same time the gain of the replay amplifier is reduced. As the SATURATION level increases, the replay gain is reduced so that the overall IN/OUT signal level remains more or less constant. In a real Tape recorder, you would adjust the Record and Replay gain controls separately. In the PorticoTM 5042 the Record and Replay gain controls are coupled so that the overall IN/OUT signal level only varies as the "Tape" saturation level changes. As you approach maximum SATURATION setting, the output signal level will drop due to the effect of extreme saturation. The PorticoTM 5042 host line amplifier has a much higher output level capability than the "Tape" circuit embodied within it. The gain of the Record and Replay amplifiers has been adjusted so that with the TRIM control set to 0 dBu and the ENGAGE TAPE button OUT, an incoming signal of 0 dBu, will cause the first meter LED to illuminate. With the ENGAGE TAPE button pressed and the SATURATION control at MIN, the same first meter LED will continue to light regardless of whether the meter Button is IN or OUT, i. e. [. . . ] We did not set out to make a "bad" tape recorder!
