General

Who'd have guessed, the Avalon V55 is literally two V5 preamps crammed into one compact unit! Fitted with a 100% discrete class-A circuit, this 2-channel preamp accurately boosts microphones, line signals and any hi-Z instruments. It goes without saying that Avalon have equipped the V55 with their famed Tone Shape function, which offers 10 carefully selected passive EQ curves so you can easily add a bit of high-end to any vocal or acoustic guitar recordings, or extra dose of low-mids when capturing the sound of a bass. Whatever you're recording, the Avalon V55 makes sure it already sounds like a record right from the start.

Radial Introduces the McBoost Preamp for Dynamic and Ribbon Microphones

Wednesday 11 November 2015 By Lizanne

It's a common occurrence in the studio or during live performances - you make a recording, but the signal is low, the fader on your console is on max and you're out of headroom. The signal is simply too weak and starts to distort when you try to amplify it with a compressor or gain plugin. Radial comes to the rescue with the McBoost - a microphone preamplifier that will add up to 25 dB to the incoming signal, ideal for consoles or audio interfaces that need a little extra oomph!
