The Black Lion Audio Auteur Quad is a rack-mountable, 4-channel microphone preamp and DI designed to provide versatile amplification of microphone and instrument signals for producers, musicians, and recording engineers in home, project, commercial, and mobile-recording studios. Up to 65 dB of gain is available for each preamp, which utilizes an XLR input and 1/4" and XLR outputs. The first two preamps offer DI inputs via front-panel 1/4" TS hi-Z jacks for easy hook-up of instruments.
