The Burl Audio B1 Mic Pre / DI is a powerhouse in a compact form. It's built on the popular API 500 series format and is designed to work seamlessly with the B2 Bomber ADC, offering you an unparalleled multi-channel experience. The B1 is kitted out with the proprietary BX3 input transformer and BX2 output transformer, ensuring that your sound is not just warm, but also clear and deep. With the B1, you'll enjoy an all-discrete transistor, class-A, direct coupled, capacitor free circuit path, which delivers a punch that's hard to match. Whether you're recording drums, guitars, or vocals, the B1 has got you covered.

The B1 offers both Gain and Level controls, allowing you to manipulate your tone to your liking. If you're after a heavy, tone, simply crank up the stepped gain control and offset that with the level control. For a cleaner tone, turn the gain down and crank up the level. The B1 is also equipped with a transformer coupled impedance select, making it a perfect match for ribbon mics and other low impedance sources.
