G P Member Since: Feb 2006 View Member's: Reviews Product Experience: 6 Months	VTB-1 Strengths: impedence of 50 for the ribbon mic, warm blending output signal, simple in use Weaknesses: quiet Summary: Bought it to use with ribbon mic. The output is warm and for ribbon mic it has enough gain. For other mics it is kind of quiet. Add warm to the digital effect from guitar. Very low noise. No issues so far. Not overprices as same level tube pre-amps. Was this review helpful or unhelpful for you? Report this as inappropriate. There are no comments for this review. Post a comment.

IP68 from PA Member Since: Feb 2004 View Member's: Reviews Product Experience: 12 Days	Just Beast Strengths: Hi-Z, Lo-Z input, Blend option. Good Control, 50-200 Mic impedance switch Weaknesses: Do not have options as limiter, compression, speed, and everything manipulated by output and blend Summary: Not changed VTB-1 with great mic impedance. Blend is just great addition to this solid construction. Hi-Z is very good for guitar input. Solid like tank. Sofar did not change stock tube, but definetely I will to see what else can be get from this small unit. No problems sofar. Was this review helpful or unhelpful for you? Report this as inappropriate.

ip068 Member Since: Mar 2007 View Member's: Reviews Product Experience: 4 Days	VTB-1 Strengths: Quality, Manual, Mic Switch for Ribbon Mics, Features Weaknesses: No VU Summary: Bought it for use with Ribbon Mic. For condenser Mics with phantom power any Mixer will be OK, but for Ribbon - mixer is too weak. Product is a very stable, and after all if you need for main line, you have ability to use it with differnt Mics and instruments. Adds nice warmth and at the same time very clear. On a back side exists switch that allows to switch the impedence down to 50 for the ribbon mic and it gives the mic output the nice open sound like it should be. Very happy.
