Audio Buddy Dual Mic Preamp and Direct Box with Phantom Power description:

Introducing the M-Audio Audio Buddy, the ultra quiet, phantom powered dual mic preamp and direct box. Audio Buddy is the perfect companion piece for any digital audio system. Its the ideal audio gateway for recording the two most significant, non-line level instruments: microphones and electric guitars.
