Black Lion Audio B12A mkIII Microphone Preamp

Designed for recording engineers who want an updated take on the classic '73-style unit, the Black Lion Audio B12A mkIII is a single-channel preamp with a warm, creamy, 1970s tone. It's suitable for recording vocals, keyboards, guitars, basses, and more. This preamp gives you a half-rack package, with an XLR connection for microphones and a 1/4" jack for line-level or Hi-Z instruments. The output connection is handled by the 1/4" TRS output on the rear of the unit.

The unit offers a stepped input gain knob to ensure repeatability. The preamp utilizes a creamy CineMag input and output transformer path, as well as other components, to elicit that classic, punchy American sound. The output control is situated after the transformer. It'll provide you with up to 70 dB of gain. You'll find controls for phantom power and polarity, while a Hi-Z switch will allow you to plug in your favorite guitar or bass for a DI recording.
