The Baby Animal 60dB single channel mic pre kit is a classic old school transformer single opamp stage mic pre only needing a single 48v power rail to run on. It is by far our most popular kit having due to its ease to build and great range of useful warm tones. The PCB can take several input transformer types as well as several normal dual DIP8 opamps or discrete 1.1" opamps with standard 990 / 2520 pinout. A DI kit can be added in seconds with no wirng except one flat ribbon cable. This kit is even easier to build as no power supply has to be built if using our prebuilt external 48v SMPS which can run up to 4 Baby Animals with DI's and runs on any mains voltage in the world.
Look at our BA2 and BA4 kits if you are looking for Baby Animal kits with lasered and milled rack case with everything nut and bolt supplied solutions.
