Radial McBoost Microphone Signal Booster Overview
Make your recordings hiss free with the Radial McBoost Microphone Signal Booster. When you're recording with ribbon or dynamic microphones that produce low output, you'll find yourself needing a great deal of gain to achieve usable results. Alternatively, if you're using a condenser to record delicate parts and need to crank your input to 10, then this can also introduce noise that detracts from your recordings. The McBoost makes this issue a thing of the past. The Signal Booster aims to provide you with an additional 25dB of volume via the variable front-panel level control. With an all-steel construction, the McBoost is just as comfortable on-the-road as it is in the studio. Improve the quality of your recordings today!

Full Description
View Full DescriptionClass-A signal booster
The 100 discrete design of the McBoost makes it one of the best in its class, featuring a class-A circuit for optimal audio quality and minimal distortion. The McBoost was designed to elivate the signal level of a low output microphone so it performs better within a mixing console. All you have to do is connect the McBoost between the mic and preamp and you're good to go. The McBoost is also highy durable thanks to Radial's trademark all-steel construction, featuring book ends that protect the switches and controls.
Premium-quality components
As well as the class-A circuitry, the McBoost also features a slew of components and design aspects that result in a high-performance signal boosting unit. The internal section of the unit features hand matched transistors for exceptional performance from the dual FET class-a circuit. This produces up to 25dB of boost which can be changed via the front-panel level control. There is also a 3-position high-pass filter that eliminates excessive rumble and proximity build-ups. Additionally the McBoost features a impedance selector that has 3 settings to provide optimal load on the microphone for increased accuracy.
