General

The number 1073 has the same effect on any well-versed studio engineer and producer as a bell does on Pavlov's dog. A legend among microphone preamps, this is the bit of kit that every studio already has, or desperately needs. Here, Black Lion Audio have stacked four 1073-inspired preamps into a meaty box, resulting in the B173 Quad. Complete with a sweet switch and knob filled control panel for toggling phantom power and phase inversion, the Quad doesn't just look great in a rack, but sets you up with four superior and sought-after microphone preamps.

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!
