🎛 Inside the Burl Black B16 – Pure Sonic Power
At the heart of Joe’s current rig is the Burl Black B16 Mothership, known for its pristine audio conversion and rich analog vibe. According to Chiccarelli, the B16 doesn’t just sound great – it feels great to work with. From capturing the subtleties of vocals to mixing full sessions, the B16 brings clarity and musicality to every track.
🔀 A Better Mix with the B32 Mix Bus
Joe also swears by the B32 Vancouver Mix Bus, another integral piece of his analog workflow. Known for adding warmth, depth, and that elusive “glue” to mixes, the B32 helps Chiccarelli deliver the polished, emotionally resonant sound he’s known for. “It just makes my job easier,” he explains – and coming from a legend who’s worked with Beck, The White Stripes, and Elton John, that’s high praise.
🏢 From EastWest Studios to Everywhere
Whether he’s in EastWest Studios 2 or 3, Chiccarelli’s sessions now revolve around Burl’s B80 Motherships – the flagship of Burl Audio’s analog/digital conversion. Their modular build and uncompromising sonic character provide Joe with ultimate flexibility and fidelity, allowing him to work faster without sacrificing quality.
🎚 Why It Matters
Joe Chiccarelli’s endorsement isn’t just a name-drop – it’s a real-world testament to how Burl’s Black Series gear is shaping the future of pro audio. For engineers and producers looking to elevate their sonic toolkit, this video offers both inspiration and insight into a truly elite setup.
