Black Lion Audio is represented in the current MicPro catalogue by Eighteen channel strip or microphone preamp and Auteur MK3 microphone preamp. The listed range is relevant to recording front ends and microphone gain. When comparing these products, check channel count, gain, input and output format, headroom, metering, phantom power and rack or desktop requirements. It suits engineers shaping microphone signals before conversion, with the exact circuit and connections determined by the model. This description is kept catalogue-led, so the individual model listing remains the source for exact specifications, compatibility and included accessories.

Microphone Preamps

Microphone preamps raise a low-level microphone signal to a usable line or converter level while adding gain, headroom and the character of the input stage. Compare available gain, equivalent input noise, input impedance, phantom power, pad, polarity or phase, metering, transformer or valve stages and any built-in EQ or compression. The catalogue includes standalone, rack, 500-series and multi-channel designs, so confirm the format and connections before purchase. A preamp should match the microphone’s output and the rest of the recording chain without adding unnecessary noise or gain stages.
