Single Channel Preamp/DI Box
Black Lion - Auteur DT
Console vibe for your desktopThe Auteur DT is a versatile preamp/DI box is built to meet all of your single-channel recording needs. Thanks to 60 dB of Chicago console-style gain and 1/4” and XLR inputs, Auteur DT accurately captures and enhances anything you put through it, the crackling snap of a well-tuned snare, or the thunder, resonance, and decay of a hard hitting ‘70s acrylic kick drum. Add life and character to synths and mix-cutting presence to vocals. Anything you plug into the Auteur DT is sure to sound better coming out of it.
The purpose of the Auteur DT is to capture every bit of nuance that goes into your recordings, and bring out the fully polished potential of your final product, which is the inspiration behind everything Black Lion Audio makes.
