Used on the Mind Over Matter Tour, as mentioned in this March 1, 2014 Mix Online article.
“I’m mixing the band on an Avid Venue SC48,” says monitor engineer Ricky Leon. “Sameer Gadhia’s main vocal mic is the Shure KSM9 HS, and for his effects vocal he uses the Shure 55s, which goes through a TC Helicon voice processor. He can get really creative with the setting, so I tend to set a hard compression on this line. He has great vocal range so I also use a comp along with a limiter.”
A KSM8/N was used for vocals on the Home of the Strange Tour, as is visible in this September 23, 2016 photo of Gadhia at Detroit, MI's The Fillmore.
Sold on Reverb.com. This one in particular is labeled "DM Vox".
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 both Jake and Eric’s guitars, Sameer’s Vox, and bass DI going through these preamps. These preamps are modeled after the API 312A style microphone preamps.
