Incredibly versatile
Thanks to the LCT 040's cardioid polar pattern, these microphones will be just as comfortable on-tour as they are in the studio. This ensures a tight focussed pick-up at the front of the capsule, with up to 6dB of rejection at the sides and nothing from the rear. You'll find this is perfect for minimising undesirable off-axis noise and ambience.
The relatively flat nature of the microphones means they will respond well to equalisation. The subtle presence boost in the higher frequency range is great for enhancing attack and intelligibility, whilst the gradual roll off automatically reduces boom and rumble. You'll no longer have to waste that all important CPU reaching for equalisers when these microphones apply it at source! The LCT 040s are excellent for delicate sources such as finger picked acoustic guitar, harp and piano. Their natural boost allows you to cut through the densest of mixes and arrangements to be heard loud and proud.
