While the convenience and power of DAWs is indisputable, some engineers prefer the sound of analog, particularly when it comes to mixing. That's where the Burl Audio B32 Vancouver analog mix bus comes in. Designed specifically for the digital audio environment, this summing amp lets you realize the full potential of your DAW by delivering the kind of sound quality you'd expect from a classic, large-format analog console - from a compact 1U device. Built in the USA using only the finest mastering-grade components, Burl Audio's B32 Vancouver sums 32 channels (24 stereo, eight mono inputs) to dual stereo outputs, and gives you the flexibility of a 6dB gain boost and tone-enhancing switchable output transformer.

Large-format analog console hugeness If you've ever worked on a classic large-format analog console, you've likely got that inimitable sound stuck in your head, and the results you're getting out of your DAW may not be cutting it. Enter the the Burl Audio B32 Vancouver. With no capacitors in its discrete analog Class A signal path, this 32-channel "mix bus" embues your mixes with the hugeness, impact, spatial detail, and clarity.

8 channels of analog summing to pump up your mix

When you bring up Dangerous Audio, the first thing that pops into most people's minds is analog summing.

The D-BOX+ also includes three stereo speaker outputs, which can be programmed to be mono and/or to include a subwoofer. Beyond that, you can use the third output as source for an independent sub with individual level and mute control.

Mastering-grade D/A delivers results you can trust

An 8-channel stereo summing mixer with 12AX7 tubes for sonic excitement, the Radial Space Heater can add incredible depth and harmonic richness to your tracks. Recording engineers at Sweetwater know that summing in the analog domain, as opposed to within your DAW, is a great way to get that big-console sound. The Space Heater's variable tube overdrive allows you to add everything from subtle transformer warmth to rich harmonic distortion. From gluing individual drum tracks into a cohesive kit to mixing down your final stems, the Radial Space Heater will add a great sound to your productions.

Tubes and transformers are just what your digital tracks need

No matter how well you record your tracks, or how you approach your mixes in your DAW, it's hard to beat the undeniably rich and deep sound that summing in the analog domain is known for. Instead of investing in a large analog console, a summing mixer like the Radial Space Heater is the perfect match for DAW-based studios. The transformer-coupled outputs add a touch of warmth, and variable tube overdrive is perfect for adding sparkle to vocals, depth to acoustic instruments, and even full-on distortion for extreme effects. Send your stems through the Space Heater, record the stereo mix back into your DAW, and you'll be impressed with the results.

Variable voltage for fine-tuning the tube sound

The Radial Space Heater not only gives you variable tube overdrive for each stereo input pair, but it also allows you to switch between 35-volt, 70-volt, and 140-volt operation. Use the 35-volt setting for maximum grit and distortion, or switch over to 70 volts for cleaner headroom and a smoother sound. When you want the cleanest headroom, switch over to 140 volts. You can adjust the voltage for each stereo input pair individually, which means you can add gritty overdrive to rock vocals while giving bass and drums tons of clean headroom for a deep, punchy sound.

Two useful studio tools in one

One look at the back panel tells you that the Radial Space Heater is ready to be a studio workhorse. Each of the eight channels can be set up as a hardware insert, which means you can send individual tracks through the Space Heater to add tube saturation and transformer warmth. Once your individual tracks are perfect and you're ready to sum your final mix, run your stems through the Space Heater and record the final stereo mix to your DAW. The Space Heater is effectively a smart combination of four outstanding tube/transformer modules plus an analog mixer.

Radial Space Heater 8-channel Tube Summing Mixer Features:

  • Stereo summing mixer for adding warmth, depth, and harmonic richness
  • A 12AX7 tube for each input pair lets you add anything from subtle sparkle to full-on distortion
  • Transformer-coupled outputs add a touch of character while maintaining a high-quality, low-noise signal
  • 3 adjustable voltage modes (35-volt/70-volt/140-volt) allow you to adjust how much clean headroom you have before distortion begins
  • Use it as an analog summing mixer or as 4 individual tube saturation/transformer warmth modules
  • Multiple units can be linked for higher channel count
