The polarity button is useful for getting something in phase, but sometimes, it's insufficient. You need to get in between phase, hence the name IBP, which is what the IBP is designed for. It is also an incredible sounding line-level active direct box, has a buffered output for driving long guitar lines, and a phase-affected guitar output that can be used for re-amping.Best for:Combining two of the same things with fullness, punch, and clarity. Miced bass cabinet and direct bass. Top and bottom snare mics. Direct and room mics. These are all places where the IBP will shine.
Circuit topology:The IBP's unique phase circuitry is analog and passive, with gain make-up amplifiers with two in-series circuits selectable for smaller 90-degree phase adjustments or larger 180-degree adjustments to keep the pure audio path as short as necessary. Our research and development found that the passive approach sounds better. The active DI has an input impedance of 10M ohm. The main balanced out is transformer isolated.
Plug-in:Little Labs has a license agreement with Universal Audio to produce a plug-in version of the IBP. They did a great job and added a feature that only digital would allow: a micro delay. But remember, phase and time are different things. You can have things in phase and out of time (which is a good thing)! Universal Audio is solely in charge of the plug-in version, so if you have questions about it, please direct them to them.
Product Features:
Allows mics to be placed where they sound best individually
No compromising mic place do to phase problems when using IBP technology
Rack mountable, 4 units fit in a 1U space
Real time all analog phase sweep between 0 and 180
Internal super quality active direct box
Internal re-amplier to convert pro-level to guitar level (w/ or w/o phase adjust)
Buffered instrument level output for driving long guitar cables
Splitting between two instrument amps with transformer isolation + phase sweep
Easily eliminate the undesirable hollow sound when combining out-of-phase and partially out-of-phase audio signals. Designed as a phase problem solving device, the IBP Analog Phase Alignment Tool has quickly become popular among audio engineers as not only a fix it tool but as a controlling audio phase creative, tonal color tool.
