Comprised of a rugged, portable chassis with world class Portico pre-amp, compressor and DI circuits as well as two channel operation, variphase, silk and DI/mic blending capabilities, the Portico 5017 is an innovative and powerful tool for recording or live performance. In replacing the Portico 5016 Mic Pre / Variphase DI, the 5017 Mobile DPC adds single knob compression, DI / Mic Pre blending, and a go anywhere design to a well established classic.

With Portico Series custom transformers and silk mode, the Mobile DPC’s sonic signature is nothing short of legendary. It’s the 5017’s revolutionary feature set however that make it an indispensable tool for studio recording, live recording and stage performances.

Two Distinct Channels

The 5017 provides two preamps: one tailored for Mic/Line sources, and the other for Instrument level sources. Each channel has a dedicated line output, allowing for the 5017 to be used in a multitude of ways. From having full control over a vocal mic + an acoustic guitar to capturing a guitar/bass DI and mic’d amplifier simultaneously, the 5017 gives the power to the artist.
