Black Lion Audio REVOLUTION-14X16 6-In/Out Class-Compliant USB Audio Interface With ADAT & MMC

Master control for your studio.

The Revolution 14x16 is a class-compliant, 14-in / 16-out USB-C audio interface that delivers sterling Black Lion Audio audio quality, supreme clocking, and a robust suite of monitoring features unheard of in a 1U audio interface. It’s expandable via ADAT for additional I/O; boasts superior connectivity for your external processors; and even includes two channels of Black Lion Audio-designed Auteur preamps. The unique Mix Edit feature lets you create a custom headphone mix for its three crystal-clear headphone amps. Patented Macro-MMC clocking ensures that any hardware you sync to your Revolution 14x16 will sound its absolute best.

Auteur preamps built-in.

Channels 1 and 2 of the Revolution 14x16 proudly feature Black Lion Audio’s Auteur preamps, which until now have only been available in our standalone preamp hardware. Auteur preamps deliver the best of both worlds of classic preamp designs — at lower gain levels, you get the fast attack of American-style preamps; a fantastic compliment for drums and rhythm guitar. Crank up the gain a bit, and you’ll get the warmth and color of classic British preamps, which can be particularly flattering to vocals and bass. You can access the Auteur preamps by connecting to either the front or rear Channel 1/2 inputs.

Auteur preamps are transformer-coupled like classic consoles of yore; Cinemag transformers are responsible for the added harmonic weight and saturation when pushed.
