This Black Lion Audio 2 Channel Auteur Preamp is Owned by Young The Giant.

Black Lion Audio has a reputation for gear that sounds a lot more expensive than it is, and the Auteur MKII 2-channel Microphone Preamp is no exception. The Auteur MKII is the second generation Auteur with lush preamps that capture every detail of your signal. It offers ultra-fast input stages, 65dB gain, a frequency response wider than its predecessor's, and lower noise/distortion levels.

Plus it delivers all the great features of the original: dual channel functionality, 48V switchable phantom power on each channel, phase switching, and a 10dBu pad option for both channels, as well. The Auteur MKII has XLR in and TRS out on Ch. 1 and Ch. 2, and it's wrapped in a 1U, 1/2 rack housing that comes with a connector plate for linking with a second 1/2 rack unit.

From YTG: We used these preamps in our LA home studio while we were writing and making demos for our second record, Mind over Matter. We had Sameer’s effected vocal, Fran’s SPD, and our synths recorded through these preamps. Marked Keys L and Keys R.
