Additional Product Information

Product Details

Capture every last nuance The LCT 540s is built to capture the subtlest of nuances. It'll feel like you're in the room as minute details will be heard loud and clear. Thanks to an incredibly low-noise floor, once you apply compression to this microphone the signal level will be brought up without any noise or hiss present.

Why choose cardioid? One of the most common patterns available, cardioid is fantastic if you're capturing live performances and multi-instrument studio recordings. Cardioid provides a tight focused sound with incredible off-axis rejection of undesirable noise and ambience.

Factory fresh Each and every LCT 540S goes through a meticulous testing process before leaving the factory. Adjustments are made to the polarization voltage of each capsule to ensure every LCT 540S condenser has the same level of sensitivity.

Highlights

  • Perfect for instruments, vocals and sound design

    This is an excellent mic with a very detailed sound and super low self noise. The transient response is very fast for an LDC mic, so it sounds great on acoustic guitar. I want to get a second one to use as a stereo pair. According to Lewitt, any two LCT540s’s are perfectly matched with each other.
