Youtube channel, @KohleAudioKult did a shootout of several DI Boxes, including the DI feature of the Dark Storm. It's an unbiased review. My favorite part is the last few minutes where he takes the Dark Storm for a walk. Check it out and let me know your thoughts in the comments of this blog.

By popular demand, I'm bringing back the 2020S this year. This new production run will be 100 units. If they sell quickly, I'll produce another run after that and we'll take it from there. I'm planning to begin producing them in mid-August of this year, or roughly 1 month from now. They'll be available for sale at that time. Now that I have some extra help here at LBA, it's finally possible to bring these back. The new selling price will be $119 USD plus shipping. These will be exactly the same as before, but with a UV Printed top instead of the sticker decal that was originally used. If you know, you know. If you don't, visit 2020S to learn more.

Trav's growing place with LBA will only mean better things for our company. I for one am excited to have him as part of our team and I'm looking forward to the day he'll be full time. I hope that day comes sooner than expected! Thanks for kickin' ass, Trav!
a Recording Engineer for LBA Studios. It's all jobs that Paul experienced during his internship, but now he's digging in deeper and taking on a more serious role. Thanks to his skill and drive, I expect to have some time freed up for myself to manage the business more effectively. If all goes as well as I hope, LBA should see some business growth as a result of my ability to accomplish more in the same amount of time. I'm looking forward to the future and feel lucky and honored to have quality help.
Official Release Date: March 31st, 2023 This is going to be difficult for me to pull off, but I'm doing it. A dual product release. Both of these products have been in development for over a year. The long wait has been mostly due to manufacturing complications that were completely out of my control. In 10 days I'll finally have the last thing I need - the retail packaging. I've already begun building the first 100 of each. Pre-ordering is currently open and is being offered with a generous discount. Pre-orders will begin shipping in 10-12 days. It's an exciting time. I can't wait to share my hard work with the world. Check out the product pages on this website to learn more about the Dark Storm and Super Storm preamps. If you'd like to invest in one or more of these bad boys, you'll get a 30 day money back guarantee and a 1-year warranty. Just head over to the store part of this website to pre-order yours now.
Just 17 DiVisions remain available for purchase. After that, they are gone forever. It's a limited edition product after all. Recently there was a big design update that adds more functionality to the DiVision. I only raised the price a little bit when the updates came out. To be honest, it's more work than what I'm getting paid for. When there are just 10 remaining, I plan to raise the price to $399 USD. Don't wait too long if you've been thinking about getting one.
Here's the first official music video for my studio band, Burnt Trace. Read the video description for details on how it was recorded.
I put together a studio band to write and record a song for the purpose of advertising the upcoming Dark Storm and Super Storm mic preamps. Everything was recorded exclusively with these preamps. The resultant song turned out better than I expected. Enough so that I decided to create a band name and release the song on iTunes. "Burnt Trace" is Troy and Stephanie Daniel at lead vocals, Josh English on drums, and I'm playing bass, rhythm and lead guitars, Hammond organ, theremin, percussion, and backing vocals. Our first song is called, "Dark of the Storm." I wrote the music, Troy and Steph wrote the lyrics, and Josh wrote his drum part. If we get any more than a few downloads it'll inspire me to work with these cool people on an EP of full length songs. Give it a listen and if you dig it, please consider showing your support with a download from your preferred online music source. I'm also working on a music video for the tune, which should be live on Youtube in a few weeks. The Dark Storm and Super Storm products will hopefully be available next quarter.
